Overview Geographic information system (GIS) has become an indispensable tool for analyzing and managing spatial data. Internet GIS technology provides dissemination, sharing, displaying and processing of spatial information over the Internet. Data pertaining to spatial attributes in a GIS can be efficiently managed with any relational database management system (RDBMS). Java's open, platform-independent, object-oriented design is an ideal platform for mapping and geographic information system (GIS) solution for developers. eXtensible Markup Language (XML) standards can be used to describe and exchange map data between applications.
