WebGIS Demo

After several days dealing with Mapserver in both local and online web server, finally, a WebGIS demo can be published. Thanks for people behind Mapserver and Fist opensources project.

Now, let me explain the story of this project…

A friend of mine, Mas Heri Satono requested me to provide an example for webgis. The example must be fully configured and contains local interest. At first, I though about embeding GoogleMap in a website. It is easy and simple. However, Gmail is not easy to be configured. Moreover, for an example of WebGIS, the Google logo must be disappear.

MapviewSVG crossed my mind. The main power of this choice is its integration with ArcView or ArcGIS. Its fancy flash effect also easy to catch our eyes attention. It is a perfect webGIS platform except the price…

Finally my choice felt to Mapserver platform. Yes it is not easy to configure and publish mapserver-based webgis. Our knowledge about coding is highly needed here. Moreover, like other opensources project, Mapserver lack of complete documentation. We have to find it by ourselves in internet. Decision had been made. Beyond its disadvantages, Mapserver has several positive marks. It is free, it is opensources, it has many application based on java, php, etc. I am now using FiST on Mapserver.

As a paralel project, I had requested another friend, Adi – who is mastering HTML, to develop another example of WebGIS. The choice is Ka-map on it.

Here are the link of our WebGIS demo. Your advices may helpful.
