This research has been conducted under the
frame work of GIS interoperability infrastructure
financed by the Malaysian Ministry of Science and
Technology. In this paper, we discuss the
development and analyze the potential application
of the Geographical Information System (GIS) and
Internet computing to enhance community
participation in the decision making processes i.e.
in Local Plan of Block 3, Melaka Tengah district as
a model. The focus of this paper is on the designing
and development of the enabled Web-based GIS
Participation System called, GISPSS. It is
considered to be similar to a Real Time Resources
Discovery Server but it comprises four main
complimentary components: the Map Viewer, the
Objection Support, the Planning Process
Documentation, and the Web Content
Management. The functional features of these
components are highlighted. The multi-tiered
architecture forms the basis of the Enabled Webbased
GIS system has been adopted in this
research.
