Web-based application to obtain the propagation in outdoor environments importing data from OpenStreetMaps

摘要

The implementation of a web-based application to obtain the propagation in outdoor environments is presented in this paper. The tool provides the results of an empirical formulation in a friendly user interface. The main advantage of the proposed system is that the data of the environment are obtained from OpenStreetMaps allowing the calculation at any part of the world with an easy accessibility to the required data. Moreover, the formulation is applicable to rural and urban environments. The web application has been implemented using HTML5 and CSS3. The open source JavaScript library Leaflet has been used to include interactive maps.
