DEVELOPMENT OF A WEB SERVICE AND ANDROID 'APP' FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF RAINFALL DATA. A BOTTOM-UP REMOTE SENSING DATA MINING AND REDISTRIBUTION PROJECT IN THE AGE OF THE ‘WEB 2.0’.

摘要

A project was devised to develop a set of freelyavailable applications and web services that can (1)simplify access from Mobile Devices to TOVASdata and (2) support the development of newdatasets through data repackaging and mash-up.The bottom-up approach enables the multiplicationof new services, often of limited direct interest tothe organizations that produces the original, globaldatasets, but significant to small, local users.Through this multiplication of services, thedevelopment cost is transferred to the intermediateor end users and the entire process is made moreefficient, even allowing new players to use the datain innovative ways.
