GeoPortals for Providing Interoperability Infrastructure

摘要

Accessing to the spatial data is one of the most prominent demands of the information age, which causes constituting information systems by institutes and organizations in local, regional and national scales. Together with the technological developments, raised process capacity with spatial data, considerable increase of spatial data quantity and developments of multi-disciplinary projects reveals the interoperability concept. Developments of national spatial data infrastructures provided implementation of spatial data standards largely and at the same time GeoPortal systems have become a functional and effective way for sharing and accessing spatial data instantly. GeoPortal system as defined a visible interface of national spatial data infrastructures provides effective solutions to the interoperability thanks to the innovations about sharing, serving and presenting spatial data. In this study, a GeoPortal design is constituted to provide Interoperability infrastructure for organizations and institutes, which produce/use spatial data. This GeoPortal is also an implementation of interoperability INSPIRE and ISO for spatial data. Technical structure of GeoPortal is an implementation of OGC and W3C technologies and standards.
