Abstract:
The topology relationship of spatial entities is the basis of GIS applications in spatial analysis and decision support. The crucial point of topology relationships is the building of topological structure. This paper firstly introduces the point set of topology theory, enumerating all kinds of topology relations which have practical application value. The relationship between a base topology element and spatial entity in the topology model is also analyzed.Then a topology building method is put forward, using feature classes. The algorithms accompany with the spatial entity model of MAPGIS7.0. These algorithms mainly present the idea of feature splitting. These methods are proved effective for building topological relationships of spatial entities in practice.

Abstract:
The spatial data model is basic to the research of GIS. New generation large-scale GIS has high levels of data, complex topology relations and many data categories. In order to meet these requirements, we propose a new kind of GIS data model: the orient-entity spatial data model. An entity is the basic, representative object in this model. The advantages are a strong ability for representation and semantics, expression and transformation of semantics, and realization with ease. This paper introduces the data model from the sides of the spatial data management and the concept data model. A system with this model can strengthen its ability of representation to real world objects, and rationalizing data organization.

Abstract:
This paper offers a solution to the application of a GIS system based on relational database management system (RDBMS) in a given circumstance which requires a long transaction. The traditional method to long transaction is to add locks on data in order to let someone edit it exclusively. That is to say, data can not be edited by more than one person at the same time with the traditional method. The paper starts from the requirement from GIS to long transaction and the questions which went on when people deal the long transaction with the traditional method. A feasible solution is offered which treats a data change as a statement and mark changes in data by state ids, then uses two algorithms to control the statements. With this solution not only data can be edited by few persons synchronously but also the different changes made by different people can be saved respectively.

Abstract:
Traditional GIS software faces some hot potato, for example, industrilization, specialization and high cost.In order to popularize GIS software, and reduce its cost, construct a plugin-based GIS application framework, which not only provides a nice reusable and flexible develop environment, but also supports special application fields faced developers when they put in practice some application project. After dissecting the essential and implementation mechanism of platform & plugin model, we present the object model, message mechanism and hierarchy of a plugin-based GIS application framework model, and apply this theory into the development and practice of large-scale GIS platform (MAPGIS7.0), which significantly promotes the extension platform function and GIS application.

Abstract:
Lidar can capture 3D geographical information quickly, and form a massive discrete point cloud.There are some shortcomings in the existing classification algorithms, such as low precision of classification and slow processing speed, especially in processing buildings close to trees. In this article, a new building extraction algorithm is introduced. The range image is abstracted from the original data and then the height texture is used for assisting classification. The authors tested the algorithm with Lidar data. The result of the experiment shows that this algorithm can distinguish adjacent buildings and trees. Also, the algorithm is good at classification precision and high speed. It has obvious advantages in the urban Lidar points cloud classification.

Abstract:
The partition algorithms between triangulated irregular network are key algorithms for building and analyzing 3D geology models. Their efficiency determines the model building efficiency. To improve the algorithm, this paper first realizes collision detection by building OBB (oriented-bounding box) trees, and then calculates the intersection points of cutting triangle pairs. Through normalizing the vertex coordinates, the algorithm provides a method for the rapid reconstruction of the geology model. The algorithm uses different partition methods based on different partition types. This paper gives a detailed description of the algorithm's process and demonstrates a cut effect of triangulated irregular network.

Abstract:
The spatial data is the important base of land resource management, but for long time, it cannot be updated and synchronized, lack of valid spatial data, so each level of government can only work at low efficiency mode. Through analyzing the national territory resources data and central data construction at present, this paper proposes a tree structure presenting the deployment, system and exchange models in central data. Data renewal and synchronization are considered through realizing a design of data renewal and a transmission through a sub-module. The entire discussion process has realized a somerism distributional data center. At the same time, we also propose the concept of table renewal at document level and geography entity renewal at record level, which has unique code.

Abstract:
WFS (web feature services) is an important part of spatial data interoperability, providing feature-level operations for different GIS data formats. WFS, based on GML (geography markup language), is able to briefly and effectively support the interfaces of essential data access, feature edition including feature adding, feature deleting and feature updating, and combinational searching of features. Through researching the normal specifications of OGC (open GIS consortium Inc.), using the basic MAPGIS platform and editing environment of.Net, the authors create a WFS, which uses the XML transport and storage of geographic information including both properties and geometry of geograpy. Finally this paper puts forward a set of WFS architecture and implementation methods based on GML, running on the MAPGIS platform. WFS implements part of the function of spatial data interoperability. WCS and WCTS are absolutely necessary in order to be good to spatial data interoperability.

Abstract:
In order to support the data requirement for city development, this paper presents methods to build a framework for 3D urban geophysical data management and service system (3D UGDMSS), including database and information management, integrated processing and display of multi-methods, 3D visualization of interpretation data and production broadcasting. The database and information management is the base of the system, and offers all data for other levels. The second level based on 2D GIS exists as a tool for data display and interaction for multi-methods integrative processing, and establishes a foundation for production. Levels three and four carry on the work of displaying the production information from urban geophysical data. The third level is 3D visualization of the information, and the fourth promulgates the production through the internet. There are two challenges when building the 3D UGDMSS. Managing urban geophysical data from different methods synthetically is the first. In this paper, we suggest the database is formed in different layers, subjects and elements, in which the data are concretized with geophysical survey points and lines. The second challenge comes from information visualization in 3D space. The production information from urban geophysical data is transferred into geological forms shown in 3D space. A hybrid data structure model based on wire frame model designed to describe this data and the 3D modelling process is introduced. This system framework has been successfully applied in one city of North China.

Abstract:
The management and service systems for urban geological information are characteristically domain specific oriented.In order to solve the reuse problem of software components, the idea of domain specific software architecture from modern software engineering was introduced in the process of the system's development. Urban geological domain specific software architecture (UG-DSSA) is presented, including heterogeneous architecture styles, whole software architecture and business flow, which are used to design the system. Using this design idea, different cities can reuse system components to a large degree, and organization and management of development are comparatively simpler. Therefore the cost of development can be cut sharply. Also the system has good expansibility. The UG-DSSA and its idea can be applied to the development of urban geological information systems or similar large scale systems.

Abstract:
For the purpose of avoiding the emergence of isolated information islands and making full use of municipal information resources, this paper presents a scheme for a GIS-based dynamic integration of municipal management information. This scheme utilizes a hierarchical architecture. By selecting, filtering and synthesizing municipal information on facilities and operations, a composite municipal data warehouse is created and maintained. An integrated dynamic management mechanism for distributed municipal information ensures that the synthetic municipal data are complete and consistent with current status. Analysis and prediction can then be conducted based upon data mining techniques. Implementation of this scheme will improve the emergency handling capabilities of a city, urban planning, decision making and many aspects concerning service to society.

Abstract:
Engineering seismic hazard analysis for a specified site represents an essential element of seismic safety assessment, and provides engineers with the standards of protection against earthquakes.In this paper, on the basis of investigation of the several PSHA (probabilistic seismic hazard analysis) methods in China, the feasible methods and solutions of PSHA based on GIS were put forward. Through the secondary development of MAPGIS, a PSHA procedure is developed. Finally, a PSHA example in the Yangtze Gorges district has testified the feasibility of the procedure. The PSHA procedure based on MAPGIS not only provides users with interactive interface to improve maneuverability, but also mines the information of PSHA from geo-data.

Abstract:
Adjusting land use planning is an important task in land management. Doing so manually provides few options for decision-making, potentially leading to poor decisions. Through using GIS technology, information management is applied in the land use planning field, providing a solution for dealing with land use planning data by making use of modern high computer storage capacity. This paper also presents a way to make and compare multi-schemas in adjusting land use planning by making use of computer data processing.We have achieved a way to dynamically manage land use planning quota by making use of a spatial database and analytical tools for quantitative analysis, improving planning quality and lessening time spent on such projects.

Abstract:
In order to meet the requirements of urban GIS applications for information query, planning, design, emergency response and society-oriented service, the authors designed and implemented a general-purpose urban GIS placename location tool. Adopting three-layer architecture, this tool consists of a placename database, a management & search engine and an interface toolbox for maintenance and query. With placenames standing for point features or rectangular regions, this placename location tool includes functions such as database setup & maintenance, placename search, quick fuzzy matching and map redirection. A placename database, which is convenient to establish and update, can not only quickly lead a UGIS user to places of interest, but also serves as a presentation of feature classes, and hence provides a data foundation for advanced query or analysis.

Abstract:
Quick response to customer needs, cost saving, and improved resource management are keys to maintaining the core competitive strength of a telecom enterprise. To show the state of resources occupied by a user's business with geometric figure at real time in China Telecom Net Resource Management System (CTNRMS-GIS), the user's address data and related resources are required. In the construction of CTNRMS-GIS, we migrated address data into GIS (UNIX Server, Sybase database) from BSS (UNIX Server, Oracle database), using an FTP server according to an appointed file format, realized sharing address data between different platforms. We also analyzed the corresponding relationship between address data and telecom net resources. The construction of the GIS address system has allowed telecom net resources maintenance departments to strengthen their support services to the frontline operation departments in the telecom enterprise.

Abstract:
Through the LBS (location based service) platform, spatial information data can be conformed and shared in LBS fields and the platform can provide integrated applications and services. The architecture of the LBS platform based on the SIG (spatial information grid) distributed model is discussed in detail in order to store map data and query location information. The interfaces of the LBS platform accord with the criterion of OpenLS and can be transported in HTTP communication protocol by XML code. The interfaces are discussed using many examples. Compared with the traditional pull mode, a new location notification method based on push is researched in this paper. The push mechanism can fit the need for high capability of data transformation and management, and transporting information between the LBS platform and applications. An example system based on MAPGIS and CDMA location technology has been designed and developed, validating the platform model and interface usability.

Abstract:
The MapSuv System has extensive applications in GIS-based city construction. By virtue of the SUV data, 2D-map coordinates and virtual realistic technology, the SUV production expressions transform 2D into 3D by directly building a 3D virtual map based on metrical data such as spatial features and attribute information. This paper discusses the structure, data organization and system function of the SUV 3D simulation system, and introduces the data source, data disposal, foundation of model database and texture database, display and output of 3D visual map. This system integrates many technologies such as GIS, VRML, and mapping, which provide the function of data modeling, scene cruise, attribute inquiry and the provision of a 3D impression of a 2D map. This system has a short modeling cycle and the lower workload, which can be used in many fields such as city, planing, mapping, traffic etc.
