Abstract

In this paper, we propose a visual CASE Tool named Aigle with multiple abstraction levels including a visual language (oriented end-user) and a technical visual language context (oriented designer) for Geographic Information Systems. This CASE Tool addresses the problem of the customizations of GIS applications on several marketed GIS platforms. The use of visual language is suitable for the readability of high level diagrams by non-expert end-users. AIGLE generates automatic customized GIS-Based Applications and Web-Based GIS Applications thanks to a user-friendly interface. Thus the designers can save 95% of the time spent on developing. More over a visual object oriented method is proposed to facilitate the design of spatial applications
