FOSS4G - MapMint: The service-oriented platform

Описание: MapMint is a comprehensive task manager for publishing web mapping applications. It is a robust open-source geospatial platform allowing the user to organize, edit, process and publish spatial data to the Internet. MapMint includes a complete administration tool for MapServer and simple user interfaces to create Mapfiles visually. MapMint is based on the extensive use of OGC standards and automates WMS, WFS, WMT-S, and WPS. All the MapMint functions run through WPS requests calling general or geospatial web services vector and raster operations, Mapfiles creation, spatial analysis and queries, and much more. MapMint server-side is build on top of ZOO-Project, MapServer, GDAL, and numerous WPS services written in C, Python, and JavaScript. MapMint client-side is based on OpenLayers and Jquery and provides user-friendly tools to create, publish and view maps. In this presentation, MapMint architecture and main features will be presented, and its modules: Dashboard, Distiller, Manager, and Publisher described with an emphasis on the OGC standards and OSGeo softwares they are using. Some case studies and examples will finally illustrate some of the MapMint functionalities.
