POSSIBILITIES OF GIS AND COMPOSITE WEB APPLICATIONS IN THE SPHERE OF FACILITY MANAGEMEN
Abstract
In the last few years has begun the development of dynamic web applications, often called Web2.0. From this development was created a technology of composite web application also called Mashups. Composite web applications may easily combine huge amounts of data sources and functionalities of existing as well as future web applications and services. Therefore, they are used to develop a new device, which offers new possibilities in information usage. Great advantage of this technology is lowering the cost for the software development and moreover the possibility to use application everywhere and anytime on the planet without a need of any extra desktop software. The combination of mashups with GIS increases usage of information thanks to included data with direct or indirect spatial reference and their visualization with mapping tools. This technology provides possibilities to develop basic as well as robust web applications not only for IT or GIS specialists, but also for common users. Simple applications, which carry large number of information, can be created by users without any knowledge of programming languages. GIS is still involving into areas, in which it has not been used before. The combination with mashups provides a quick and easy way to solve many of today’s simple and even complex problems. One of these problems could be the development of a facility management support system using all the options of these powerful technologies. Final results of combination research of these technologies are practically verified for current facility management support system in VSB-Technical university of Ostrava for the purpose of improvement.
