[Termes IGN] web mappingRésumé : (Editeur) Maps were an exciting feature of the Web when it first arrived. Most sites, however, still either use handmade graphics or point to roadmap sites. Presenting geographic data in a sophisticated and attractive way that goes beyond simple roadmaps has remained a difficult proposition, frequently demanding both expertise and a hefty sum of money. This book will help you build attractive and interactive maps, showing you how to work with map data while cutting expenses with freely available open source tools. The tools covered will let you collect data and transform it to meet your needs, store large volumes of geographic data efficiently, add your own information to maps, and present maps on web sites complete with interactive interfaces that let users choose what they want to see. Along the way, you'll:
- Decide what information you need to create your maps
- Gather map data from free (and if necessary, commercial) sources
- Learn how to work with projections, datums, and ellipsoids
- Inspect and convert data with the GDAL and OGR tools
- View and explore data with OpenEV
- Store and manage data in PostGIS and a variety of file formats
- Use MapServer to generate static maps to your specifications
- Integrate MapServer with the Apache web server to creative interactive mapping applications
- Consume and generate WMS and WFS web services to collect data from a variety of sources and share information with others
- Add scripting to MapServer to connect it more tightly with your other tools.
If you've been looking for a way to move your web site beyond the average street map, this book can open an enormous set of possibilities.Note de contenu : Foreword
