Abstract:
Various solutions for dynamic, service-level integration of geospatial data have been developed in the EU-funded Geo-spatially Enabled Ecosystem for Europe (GeoE3) project. The GeoE3 geodata integration platform is a cloud-based service providing single point access to the thematic content offered by the project. In particular, the project has focused on on-the-fly cross-border integration of datasets originating from legacy country-level services. Access to the platform is based on the Open Geospatial Consortium’s (OGC) latest interface standards OGC API Features and OGC API Coverages (API: Application Programming Interface). A separate layer of functionality has been added to the platform to combine the available content themes into a single service end point and to seamlessly integrate the country-level datasets across national borders. As the final step, an enhanced Web user interface for accessing the GeoE3 integration platform has been designed and developed. The new user interface facilitates visualization, interaction with and download of geospatial content across national borders and thematic domains.
