“…The basic architecture of a web GIS application is the client‐server architecture; this is because the standard of geo‐data is very specific in the sense that it requires a map server on top of the web server and a database compliant with geo‐data, while most other websites do not require these extra technologies to function properly …”

Summary With the advancement of modern technologies such as smart cities, IoT, and e‐governments, people have to participate in their well‐being self‐governing and safe guard their key resources and critical infrastructures. To employ their efforts efficiently, many modern handy applications are created and solutions are proposed. Supported by the Ministry of Water, we designed and developed a free‐of‐charge web application (App.), easy to download from Google play store and operate using simple gadgets. Users can report water and sewage accidents fast and easy and at no cost. By merging Surveying and Geomatics Engineering with Information and Communication Technology (ICT) with Wireless communication, networking technology, and systems, we are able to create a web application to report complaints of accidents directly to the right delegated call centers at the Water Authority using the Internet and a smart mobile phone (simple gadgets). This will automate the complaint process and cancel the old paper work system. Surveying and Geomatics Engineering are concerned with the creation of an accurate GIS to manage the Water Authority data and in the data uploading into Google Maps. The developed computer program (application) works in two ways: first, it connects users (customer or employee) to the water authority electronically, and second, it allows immediate checking about the location of the complaint, momentarily filling using the Authority coordinate system, immediate action delegation (repair) at the water authority, continuous follow up, and confirmation to the user about the case. It performs as well, the needed coordinate transformation to guarantee exact filing and locations. Several software tools and programming languages are used to achieve this work such as ArcGIS, Google earth, Google map, GIS cloud, and Java and C++. As a case study, we present the App. performance for a town “Al‐Fuheis, Jordan” using the Water Authority data for creating the needed Water pipes and Sewage (GIS). Moreover, we presented the performance and the efficiency of the App. even when using Goggle Maps data only without GIS data intervention and it proved to be satisfying as well. As a result. a web App. called “Water Pipes” for the Water Authority is posted on their web to allow users participation in the reporting and the follow up process to better conserve the very scarce water in the country. In addition, it automates the work at the Water Authority from filing to take action and repair electronically in no time.

“…The basic architecture of a web-based GIS application usually includes a web server in server-side that can handle incoming re-quests and generate corresponding responses. Another main component of the server side is a map server that can provide geospatial data [6]. Besides, a database management system (DBMS) is used to manage spatial and attribute data.…”

“…GIS can be used to improve the storage, retrieval, analysis, and presentation of bulks amounts of data, especially in integrating and sharing spatial data among administration agencies [5]. GIS is currently converging with several other technologies to provide new levels of accessibility and functionality as web [6]. Since web technologies and the GIS advanced considerably and practiced widely, the web-based GIS (WebGIS) has become a popular means of information sharing and visualization in the form of maps [7].…”

Ben Tre, located in the Mekong Delta, is one of the most places affected by climate change, especially in sea level rise and salinity intrusion. For the seven provinces bordering the East Sea, the need for monitoring water resources is critical. This paper represents an approach to build a web-based GIS to store, manage, analyze and visualize the data of saline intrusion phenomenon. The novelty focuses on automating the workflow for the generation and publication of time series saline intrusion maps on server side. The analysis results are provided on the web browser interface. This helps users access valuable information without having to install professional GIS software. Spatial distribution of saline intrusion and statistical results support government agencies in planning and decision making. This work is funded by Ben Tre Provincial People's Committee and Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology (VAST).

“…Based on the description above, this study aims to identify and analyze the distribution of religious tourism in Nagari Batuhampar, Akabiluru District, and Lima Puluh Kota Regency using WebGis technology. The development of WebGIS has shown consistent progress, along with the expansion of the internet and the advancement of hardware and software [28]- [30]. The significance of conducting this research arises from the need for more media as a resource for tourism promotion.…”

Nagari Batuhampar has several tourist attractions planned as object tourist destinations in the strategic plan. However, publication and presentation on social media are less effective in promoting the unique characteristics of tourist attractions. This research aims to identify the distribution of tourist destination objects in Nagari Batuhampar, followed by comprehensive information. The type of research used is descriptive survey research with the waterfall method, which consists of requirement analysis, system analysis, system implementation, system testing, system evaluation, operation, and maintenance. Data collecting techniques include observation using GPS and documentation, interviews to obtain information for web development, and questionnaires. Furthermore, the built-in data application QGIS 3.32.3” Lima” is open source. WebGIS, built using the Database Management System (DBMS) approach, is designed as software to manage big data. Big data is meant to be a collection of lots of data tailored to the project being carried out, such as mapping the distribution of public facilities and village potential. In this research, DBMS focuses on spatial data and religious and supporting tourism attributes. This is focused on data on religious and supporting tourism attributes. The result found that historical religious tourist attractions dominated the distribution of attractions in Nagari Batuhampar. The WebGIS of Tourist Destination Object was constructed using a waterfall method that was effectively created. This development was conducted through system evaluation tests, resulting in most respondents being satisfied with the process's performance.
