“…For example, Boston and Stockwell (1994) described a WWW service provided by the Australian Environmental Resources Information Network (ERIN) to access key environmental information for various applications. Without burdening end users with too complicated and expensive software, an Internet GIS enables equivalent geographic data manipulations by simply using web browsers via Internet to make data query, data acquirement, and data analysis.…”

Storm water overflow from a combined sewer system might result in a sudden devastating impact to part of the urban region and the local ecosystem in an urban river environment. In order to assess the overflow pollution load during tropical rainfall events and provide a capacity of real-time emergency response planning, a web-based share vision modelling system is designed for different decision-makers based on environmental and ecological information, knowledge, vision, and concepts simultaneously. The study area covers the estuarine region in the Love River system in South Taiwan. It aims at the development of a generic platform that allows decisionmakers in cooperation with other stakeholders to carry out disaster management duty during storm events. The main task of the platform concerns the management of rain=runoff, the assessment of water quality impacts, and the control of interceptor system along the river corridor. The architecture of such a Decision Support System (DSS) requires applying, integrating, and linking the web-based database, two water quality simulation models, and one optimisation model in an Internet Geographic Information System (IGIS) environment. By properly sharing information, knowledge, vision, concept, and modelling outputs among different levels of decision-makers via a web-based platform, it clearly indicates that a more efficient emergency management action is achievable during relentless storm events in response to mitigating possible ecological risk in the estuarine rehabilitation process. This would also contribute to a sustainable development plan within the urban region in the long run.

“…The application already included auto-generated maps, with clickable areas that generated a pick-list enabling selection of the user's target species, but at that stage zoom capabilities and map overlays for cities, rivers and roads had not yet been delivered (Boston andStockwell, 1995 andpersonal communication, March 2011).…”

The World Wide Web arrived just as connections to the internet were broadening from academe to the public generally. The Web was designed to support user-performed publishing and access to documents in both textual and graphicai forms. That capabiiity was quickly supplemented by means to discover content. The web browser was the 'killer app' associated with the explosion of the Internet into the wider world during the mid1990s. The technology was developed in 1990 by an Engiishman, supported by a Belgian, working in Switzerland, but with the locus soon migrating to Illinois and then to Massachusetts in 1994. Australians were not significant contributors to the original technology, but were among the pioneers in its application. This paper traces the story of the Web in Australia from its beginnings in 1992, up to 1995, identifying key players and what they did, set within the broader context, and reflecting the insights of the theories of innovation and innovation diffusion.

“…With the rapid expansion and development of Internet and WWW (World Wide Web or Web), Web GIS (Web Geographical Information System) is becoming ever more popular and as a result numerous sites have added GIS capability on their Web sites (BOSTON et al, 1994;PUTZ, 1994;SHIFFER, 1995;SOVIK, 1997). Web GIS can be simply defined as "GIS on the Web".…”

AKb-qI~CT: With the rapid expansion and development of Internet and WWW (World Wide Web or Web), Web GIS (Web C~ographieal Information System) is becoming ever more popular and as a rmult numerous sites have added GIS capability on their Web sites. In this paper, the reasons behind developing a Web GIS instead of a "traditional" GIS are first outlined. Then the current status of Web GIS is reviewed, and their implementation methodologies are explored as well.The underlying technologies for developing Web GIS, such as Web Server, Web browser, CG1 (Common Gateway Interface), Java, ActiveX, are discussed, and some typical implementation tools from both commercial and public domain are given as well. Finally, the future development direction of Web GIS is predicted.
