Abstract
Solving problems of environmental monitoring reasonably requires collecting, digitizing, storing, and analyzing a large amount of spatiotemporal data. Data processing often needs distributed computing. As a rule, there are no means to fully support such computing in the well-known geographic information systems. In the paper, we propose an approach to solving this problem based on integrating a geographic information system with tools for developing and using distributed scientific applications in a heterogeneous computing environment through representing applied software as web data processing services. We show the advantages of the proposed approach in reducing the complexity of preparing and carrying out experiments with geodata.
