Dude, You pretty much answered your questions, given the open-ended-ness of the query. How do you do it? Just like you said, but with a bunch of programming to sew it all together. However, I could add a small modification to your approach, and expansion of process:
1. I don't know if java has something to connect to geoserver like mapscript (mapscript accesses mapserver, could be used instead of geo server), but mapserver and php mapscript could be useful (and I think perl and Ruby has one too) 2. you do the actual spatial analysis using PostGIS spatial analysis functions - see the online documentation for the relevant SQL functions for your queries etc. regards, r.b. -- -- Robert W.
