Prototype system for geospatial data building-sharing developed by utilizing open source web technology

To make use of geospatial data efficiently, it is important to collect or build an appropriate data and describe a structure of schema to serve the purpose. Building or editing geospatial data has mostly been conducted by GIS software based on a desktop or web platform. In fact, works for constructing a geospatial data use to be conducted by team members together. However, the most of software and service for producing a geospatial data cannot provide collaborative work environment. This study is to design the system of prototype which provides functions to build a new geospatial data and edit the existing one based on an open source web technology. Moreover, it provides a collaborative work environment enabling several users to work by a defined schema through authorized management of the users. Interfaces in the system are designed to process geospatial data based on OGC standard, and store data in a GeoJSON format to MongoDB. In the future, not only the demands for geospatial data will be increased, but also software requirements for comfortable building and editing will become more diverse. These demands and requirements include designed prototype in this study will be basis to become useful software in future.
