Abstract

Enabling the integration of information provided by OGC Web Processing Services into geospatial mass-market applications is promising, as it increases the availability of information for most ordinary users. This information will be most likely based on the latest available data (e.g. collected by sensors) and can thereby support the user in time-constrained decisions. This paper presents an approach to actually configure and integrate such processes into geospatial mass-market applications. The applicability of the approach is demonstrated by a risk management scenario. The software presented has been developed within the Geoprocessing Community of the 52°North initiative and is available through an Open Source license.
