Design and Implementation of a New Meteorology Geographic Information System

Abstract:

Meteorology Geographic Information System (MeteoGIS) is a professional meteorological GIS platform with completely independent intelligent properties. It fully utilizes the national innovative GIS technologies in the meteorological scenario; MeteoGIS supports multiple databases, browsers and a variety of development environments, has a good cross-platform capability. It also has a massive vector and raster data management and distribution capacity. MeteoGIS extends the meteorological data models and data sets, and is able to produce meteorological thematic maps, layout and printing. It has integrated algorithms for meteorological applications and special-use analysis. The platform is comprised of development kits, data engine, desktop software, and Web development platforms.
