[ilugd] FOSS to drive Kerala's first e-governance Web GIS
Kerala's e-governance initiatives have decisively turned its back to Proprietary software systems like Microsoft. This was evident when the State's first active web GIS (Geographical Information System) was launched in public domain this week. It was using Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) technology that GIS was developed, KR Srivathsan, director, IIIM-K (Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management- Kerala) said. The main objective of Active Web GIS is to make the dynamic geographical information available in a simplified, open Web interface, he added. Knowledge of spatial data is becoming increasignly important for scientific and business organisations to make informed decisions.Active Web GIS is very crucial when the location-specific information is dynamic and decisions have to be made on real time basis, Srivatsan said.
