Parallel processing methods in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are traditionally used to accelerate the calculation of large data volumes with sophisticated spatial algorithms. Such kinds of acceleration can also be applied to provide real-time GIS applications to improve the responsiveness of user interactions with the data. This paper presents a method to enable this approach for Web GIS applications. It uses the JavaScript 3D graphics API (WebGL) to perform client-side parallel real-time computations of 2D or 2.5D spatial raster algorithms on the graphics card. The potential of this approach is evaluated using an example implementation of a hillshade algorithm. Performance comparisons of parallel and sequential computations reveal acceleration factors between 25 and 100, mainly depending on mobile or desktop environments.

The high-altitude missile and other special application occasions have requirements on image storage system, such as small size, high storage speed, low temperature resistance, etc. Commonly used image storage system in the market cannot meet such requirement. In the paper, real-time image storage system solutions on missile based on FPGA should be proposed. The system mainly consists of acquisition module and memory reading module. The whole system adopts FPGA as main control chip for mainly completing real-time decoding and acquisition on one path of PAL format video images, reading and writing of NandFlash chipset, erasure, bad block management and so on. The solution has passed various environmental tests with stable performance, large data storage capacity and easy expansion, which has been used in engineering practice.
