Abstract
Geographical information system (GIS), data management and digital technology play a key role in the development of sustainable city. These technologies help administrator and planner to increase performance, utilize resources efficiently, reduce cost and engage the citizen in the system, which makes the city smarter. Basic infrastructure component that makes the city smarter include transport, energy, healthcare, water and waste management. The present study is aimed to develop Web-GIS based framework for the lodging complaint, visualization and monitoring for solid waste in an urban area. A Web-GIS based framework is presented that uses free open-source software (FOSS) such as open layer, Javascript, Apache tomcat, Geoserver and PostgreSQL/PostGIS for visualization and monitoring of geospatial data. Using this framework a Geo-locator tool is developed to find the locations of facility (bins) to end user for reporting and lodging complain etc. It also develops automatic report for municipal officers to quickly respond to the complaints.
Highlights
Web-Geographical information system (GIS) is known as Internet GIS, which is the combination of Internet and GIS
In the present study web-GIS based has been developed that works as information system as well as used for monitoring the solid waste complaint
GeoServer publish data from many sources such as PostGIS, shapefile, java property file as vector data sources ArcGrid, GeoTIFF, Gtopo30, Image Mosaic and World Image as Raster data sources and other. Geoserver can deliver these data to different formats such as GIF, GeoTIFF, JPEG, Keyhole markup language (KML), PDF, PNG and OpenLayer [9]
Summary
Web-GIS is known as Internet GIS, which is the combination of Internet and GIS It is a conventional GIS which uses the Internet as a basic information infrastructure for spatial data dissemination. GIS and Internet technology are useful in monitoring the urban system. GIS improves the monitoring and visualization experience and makes possible to monitor and visualize the city in spatial context. With the help of GIS, it has become possible to visualize the physical entities in a virtual environment using different models. The basic goals of smart cities are efficient organization, recycling and reuse of already developed solutions, better and quick decision making, easier to contact the governing organization In the present study web-GIS based has been developed that works as information system as well as used for monitoring the solid waste complaint. Free open source softwares have been used in development of system
