GIS Web Mapping Part 1 - Introduction to Web Mapping
(Academic)
This course will review the numerous options available for presenting geographic data on the web. The technical architecture features common to all web mapping applications, regardless of platform, will be identified, thus allowing students to understand the operational components or "moving parts" behind the scenes of a web mapping site. The most commonly used web mapping platforms will be discussed, including the pros and cons of each in light of the application developer's goals and objectives. Multiple working web mapping applications will be presented as examples of their various platforms. The hands-on portion of this course will guide participants through the source code of a working Google Maps application.
This short course is being presented in collaboration with Virginia Tech Geospatial Information Sciences. http://www.gis.vt.edu/ More information...
