Geographic Information System (GIS) is a tool used for capture, storage, manipulation, query and presentation of spatial data that have applicability in diverse fields. Web GIS has put GIS on Web, that made it available to common public which was earlier used by few elite users. In the present paper, development of Web GIS frameworks has been explained that provide the requisite knowledge for creating Web based GIS applications. Open Source Software (OSS) have been used to develop two Web GIS frameworks. In first Web GIS framework, WAMP server, ALOV, Quantum GIS and MySQL have been used while in second Web GIS framework, Apache Tomcat server, GeoServer, Quantum GIS, PostgreSQL and PostGIS have been used. These two Web GIS frameworks have been critically compared to bring out the suitability of each for a particular application as well as their performance. This will assist users in selecting the most suitable one for a particular Web GIS application.

Geographic Information System (GIS) software has evolved to the point where it is extremely valuable to the planning, construction and operation of pipelines across a range of industries. Recently, GIS software of high quality has become freely available for use and modification under open source licensing schemes. This paper evaluates the utility of a geographic information system prepared using open source software for shared departmental use. Analysis includes areas such as functionality of the software, setup time, and total cost of ownership. The departmental focus is at a level concerned with pipeline planning and cost estimating. The full GIS package used for the analysis consists of a database, spatial data management software, and a web server providing web-based access to geomatic data suitable for a pipeline construction department. The utility of application programming interfaces provided through the GIS with open source software development tools is analysed in the form of a what-if economic comparison tool for pipeline route selection. The ability of the GIS to integrate data from other departmental systems is also examined. Final conclusions serve to aid pipeline GIS teams in determining if open source solutions are ready for widespread use.

City Focus is a web-based interactive 2D and 3D GIS application to find the best place in a city to live as well as to pass shorter staying. The user can select among different criteria and decide their importance by assigning weights to each of them. The application provides thematic maps displaying insights on the places which better fit the user’s preferences. The resulting map is computed through map algebra by means of Web Coverage Processing Service WCPS provided by RASDAMAN Database Management System. Data visualization is mainly based on NASA Web WorldWind open-source virtual globe. The app exploits exclusively open data as well as Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) for its implementation by enabling continuous improvements while minimizing development costs.
