Technology for Developing Web Services for Publishing Spatial Data

A geographical atlas is a systematic collection of geographical maps, prepared according to general goals as an integral work. Considering the general demand, complexity, and systematicity of the information presented in atlases, it becomes relevant not only for a visual and convenient presentation of maps for users, but also for integrating the atlas with other information systems within a single information space. The purpose of the study is to develop and apply Web services for publishing spatial data. Within the service-oriented information and analytical environment, the entry point to which is the geoportal of the IDSTU SB RAS, a technology has been created for developing services for publishing spatial data based on a data model that combines requirements and specifications for the data structure, legend, and user interface for data editing. The technology developed for creating services for publishing spatial data will make it possible to create atlas maps and provide the ability to use atlas data for computing services that are implemented by users and use them in various modeling, analysis, and forecasting systems, including various geographic information systems, for example QGIS, ArcGIS, etc.
