Contributions to the modelling of spatial data infrastructures and their portrayal services

Las Infraestructuras de Informacion (II) son grandes sistemas de informacion en red, que carecen de una autoridad central, que han evolucionado sobre una base instalada y en los que tanto los elementos sociales como los tecnicos deberian ser considerados como componentes, Pueden considerarse como Sistemas de Sistemas (SoS, por sus siglas en ingles) especializados. Los SoS son sistemas autonomos y heterogeneos, geograficamente distribuidos pero interconectados, que muestran comportamientos emergentes que no eran posibles antes de que se estableciera el SoS. Las Infraestructuras de Datos Espaciales (IDE) son II centradas en compartir datos y servicios espaciales. Los datos espaciales, o geograficos, son aquellos que describen informacion relacionada con alguna localizacion sobre la superficie de la Tierra, o con aquellas zonas adyacentes a la misma. Los servicios espaciales son entidades software, de grano grueso, descubribles y auto-contenidas, que residen en un entorno de tecnologia de la informacion abierto, y especialmente disenados para acceder a, y procesar, datos espaciales siguiendo una arquitectura orientada a servicios. Los servicios de representacion grafica son aquellos servicios espaciales a cargo de representar graficamente datos espaciales, normalmente en forma de mapas, y estan incluidos entre los basicos necesarios en cualquier IDE. Esta tesis propone modelos para facilitar la especificacion, el diseno y la documentacion de las IDE y de sus servicios de representacion grafica. Se propone un modelo siguiendo el modelo de referencia para el procesamiento distribuido y abierto de la organizacion internacional para la estandarizacion (ISO RM-ODP, por sus siglas en ingles), para abordar varios aspectos del punto de vista de II de las IDE. Despues se desarrolla un estilo arquitectural siguiendo la metodologia "Views and Beyond" para proporcionar un patron para ayudar en el diseno de sistemas de informacion que van a ser integrados en una IDE. Finalmente se presentan varias contribuciones al diseno de los servicios de representacion grafica de las IDE, y ejemplos de sus aplicaciones.
