Uma arquitetura web para sistemas de informações geográficas aplicada a geotecnia

Abstract

The Geographic Information Systems Geotechnical Web are an application class and have as their main aspects the manipulation of georeferencing data and the management of records and correlations of geotechnical information. Because not be used routinely a standard architecture for the development of this class of application, this work has as motivation to explore the opportunity of defining an architectural model that is able structurally enable the construction of these applications. The objective of the present work is to propose a model of architecture which permits the building of Geographic Information Systems Geotechnical Web. The methodology used in this work consists on a deep study about Geographic Information Systems and Software Architecture. By identifying responsibilities the architectural elements and their relationships were defined. For validation, the instantiation of architecture was carried out through a case study. The final result was an architecture comprised of five modules and created from the domain modeling and the integration of two frameworks. It’s concluded that from the use of this architectural model, lots of benefits were gotten such as the information encapsulation done to the data entrance in the system, the automatic conversion of data and the automated persistence that works with the data reversible conversion.
