My Map Portal Engine Search (MMPes) utilizing spatial dataset with Google Earth

摘要

Future developments in GIS (Geographic Information System) are centred on the Internet such as the 3D Geo-browser (Google Earth). In this study, a new generic approached in presenting GIS dataset using Google Earth will be introduced. My Map Portal Engine Search (MMPes) is developed as a tool that integrates spatial GIS dataset with Google Earth platform towards spatial presentation. A pilot study has been carried out using GIS database consisting of tree attributes and was found that the system could aid spatial presentation of the attributes systematically on Google Earth and will eventually benefits a variety of applications. In this study, spatial presentation of attributes on Google Earth using the developed system is shown, the primary results of system verification is tabulated.
