Research on application of SVG and SOAP in WebGIS system

On the basis of comparing the present different WebGIS modes,the feasibility of incorporating SVG and SOAP in WebGIS is discussed according to the technological characteristics of SVG and SOAP.A new multi-tier architecture and the design of WebGIS based on SVG and SOAP is proposed and an application example is given.Due to the realization of vector graphics display and data transmission mode of platform-independent,network data transmission can be effectively reduced,browser and server computing power is balanced.
