Abstract |
The goal of the module is to describe the process of creation of a sewage management web client application, and the integration of INSPIRE compliant viewing and downloading services into the application. The first step to make this possible, is the harmonisation of the existing dataset. Next, a web portal is adapted and enriched with new functionalities to fulfil the needs of the agency. Before the edits get ingested in the sewer database, the content of the edits are validated by VMM. For this purpose, some validation rules have been implemented and added to the application as a ‘content validator’. The different steps of the implementation of the web application is described in the second training component of this module. |
