Building Service Oriented Sharing Platform for Emergency Management - An Earthquake Damage Assessment Example

摘要

In this paper we study the feasibility of using services offered by a Spatial Data Infrastructure as the basis for distributed service oriented sharing. By developing a prototype we demonstrate that a Spatial Data Infrastructure facilitates rapid development of sharing platform that solves image sharing problems. The prototype provides clients with a distributed application that enables the assessment of earthquake damage areas based on house collapsed data in a given area. We present the architecture of the application and describe details about implementations specific issues. We conclude that the OGC specifications provide a sound basis for developing service oriented architectures for disaster sharing platform. The prototype was validated by enhancing image quality (I-Q) generated by remote sensing through the technologies of visualization.
