Course content
The first part deals with the subject of internet technologies. It analyzes the transmission and communication protocols and network architecture. Subsequently dedicated key for XML and its derivatives (XPath, XSLT, GML). This section is completed analysis of web sites which introduces the principles, the administration and operation. Based on the most widely used open-source solutions Apache - PHP - MySQL. The second part focuses on the architecture and operation of mapping and GIS servers for example MapServer of Minesota University, GeoServer and ArcGIS Server. In this course, students learn to manage, configure, and use of technology from the perspective of the administrator and users of GIS services. Students will learn how to publish maps, models and tools and learn to use GIS services through web applications and cloud-solutions ArcGIS Online and Google technology (Fusion Table). In the third part, the students with web services and standards as defined by the OpenGIS Consortium. During the exercise, the students practically acquainted with the methods of publication of geographic data on the network, XML language, mapservers of Minesota University using the basic installation and available frameworks and GeoServer + extension frameworks. In the production, processing and analysis of web services to practically learn how to work with ArcGIS Server.
