Abstract

Technological advances are leading us towards a vision where mobile devices will be utilized to access geospatial information for various decision making purposes. Web Services have enabled pervasive accessibility of geospatial information in the mobile devices and overcome the physical location constraints of conventional computing. This technology is the perfect candidate, since a strong interoperable capability is the key requirement for sharing and integration of geospatial data. The geospatial data can be useful for decision making but the required information may not be always available only through the geospatial data services. The geospatial data essentially are required to turn into value added information. Thus, need of a geospatial data processing service is required which will be able to process geospatial data on-the-fly to resolve users' queries. In this paper a framework has been proposed to provide value added geospatial information in mobile devices through service chaining.
