Abstract
After a careful examination and an extensive investigation of the Geopark development, all data of geological heritage, relevant research, tourism information and science education are integrated by the technologies of ArcGIS, MapServer and database software, based on the detailed analysis and design of system architecture, database design, map file handling, user interface design and system design features, so that a WebGIS-based management platform of Geopark can be created and all related information can be locally managed but remotely accessed. The platform has good usability, platform independence and scalability, can help administrators manage geological park easier.
Highlights
Geoheritage refers to the process of evolution of the Earth, in the internal and external stress geological formation, development and legacy
Special significance Geological Sciences, rare natural attributes, high ornamental value aesthetics and the geological heritage landscape of a certain size and distribution range are as its main body
The purpose of establishing Geopark is to maximize the development of the local economy and help people understand the evolutionary history of the living environment (Cited from Chris Woodley-Stewart, Geopark Manager, North Pennines AONB, United Kingdom)
Summary
Geoheritage refers to the process of evolution of the Earth, in the internal and external stress geological formation, development and legacy. The system, developed and published with WebGIS technology, is promoting the ability of management and protection of the tour resource, and providing convenient to the tourist’s outgoing and hunting for touring information, so that raising the service quality. By comparing various popular WebGIS secondary development technology, regardless of the system on the basis of overall demand, decided to adopt ArcGIS, MapServer, databases, and other related technologies combination as a system solution. Data base of this system is MXD files and graphics data of ShapeFile file format. System is user-friendly, easy to operate, with good usability, platform independence and scalability
