Abstract

Environmental planning requires integration of disparate geographic database and services in a distributed environment involving multiple stakeholders. As more and more mapping resources are becoming available, the Web is becoming a confluence of collaborative interactions, negotiations and planning platforms. Web services could offer a framework for service integration and composition for collaborative environmental modeling. The objective of this paper is to provide a theoretical framework for understanding how features of Web services can be related to implementation standards and protocols of distributed environmental planning involving geographic information systems.
