SIT-REM: An Interoperable and Interactive Web Geographic Information System for Fauna, Flora and Plant Landscape Data Management

none10The main goal of the SIT-REM project is the design and the development of an interoperable web-GIS environment for the information retrieval and data editing/updating of the geobotanical and wildlife map of Marche Region. The vegetation, plant landscape and faunistic analysis allow the realization of a regional information system for wildlife-geobotanical data. A main characteristic of the SIT-REM is its flexibility and interoperability, in particular, its ability to be easily updated with the insertion of new types of environmental, faunal or socio-economic data and to generate analyses at any geographical (from regional to local) or quantitative level of detail. Different query levels obtain the latter: spatial queries, hybrid query builder and WMSs usable by means of a GIS. SIT-REM has been available online for more than a year and its use over this period has produced extensive data about users' experiences.. © 2014 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, SwitzerlandFrontoni, Emanuele; Mancini, Adriano; Zingaretti, Primo; Malinverni, Eva; Pesaresi, Simone; Biondi, Edoardo; Pandolfi, Massimo; Marseglia, Maria; Sturari, Mirco; Zabaglia, ClaudioFrontoni, Emanuele; Mancini, Adriano; Zingaretti, Primo; Malinverni, Eva Savina; Pesaresi, Simone; Biondi, Edoardo; Pandolfi, Massimo; Marseglia, Maria; Sturari, Mirco; Zabaglia, Claudi
