Spatial Technologies for Coastal Management

This demonstration will be presented at the 2004 National Conference on Digital Government Research. The third year results of the project "Digitalization of Coastal Management and Decision Making Supported by Multi-Dimensional Geospatial Information and Analysis" will be presented. Mobile wireless communications, internet web services, and web GIS are integrated into a web-based decisionmaking system for coastal management. Employing three-dimensional visualization technology, athe system also provides a visualization tool for multisource spatial-temporal data integration and uncertainty analysis. Also demonstrated is an interactive QuickBird image processing subsystem used for high resolution DEM and three-dimensional shoreline extraction of Tampa Bay. The goal of this project is to develop technologies to enhance the operational capabilities of federal, state, and local agencies responsible for coastal management and decision making. The pilot test site is along the Lake ...
