The Web C.A.R.T.E. project was started to enhance the accessibility of this valuable cartographic heritage using FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) technologies. The system, which implements specific web geoservices for cataloguing and visualization, should assist the State Archive of Como in the digital management of its cartographic resources and related information. After the high-resolution digitization step, maps undergo a georeferencing operation. A special statistical procedure for choosing the best mathematical model was developed, verifying also strengths and weaknesses of georeferencing with a common free and Open Source GIS. Next, metadata consistent with current Italian standards were added to the georeferenced maps using an ad hoc localized version of GeoNetwork Opensource (recently provided as the official Italian version of the software). A dedicated WebGIS system was built for publishing the georeferenced cadastral maps. This system is capable of navigating large raster data in a georeferenced framework and easily retrieving their metadata. The WebGIS system for the State Archive of Como is an important contribution for the preservation of the original historical paper maps and also a great modernization and simplification of the end user's access to this archive.

Improving the monitoring of the status of the environment through web geo-services: the example of large structures supervision / M. Brovelli in Transactions in GIS, vol 15 n° 2 (April 2011)

Many different actors are involved in these steps: the owner (public or private); the planning, construction, and operation managers; the environmental teams executing the monitoring; the government department or agency responsible for protecting the environment and the health of the population; and, finally, the policy-makers. The environmental agency itself is composed of various domain experts dealing with different environmental arenas (air, water, etc.). Since most of the collected information refers to space and time, GISs are natural tools for storing and processing the data. Nevertheless, instruments, people, and communications technology are involved, and there is a potential for failure, waste of time and unnecessary costs to appear. A web platform based on OGC web services and allowing for sharing and processing the sensor and geographic information can greatly improve workflow management. This article presents a description of a working pilot that can serve as a solution to managing such a project, because it makes it possible to integrate geodata (maps and orthophotos) from different sources and to visualize and analyze the sensor data with respect to both time and space.
