DSI in Brief

State Hydraulic Works (DSI) is a legal entity included in general budget, and is the primary executive state agency responsible for planning, management, development and operation of the nation’s overall water resources.

It is founded in 1953 as a public agency.

DSI in Brief

DSI is responsible for four major tasks namely;• Irrigated agriculture enhancement• Hydroelectric energy generation• Water supply to large cities• Flood prevention measures

DSI in Brief

DSI is responsible for dam projects, surface water and groundwater.

What is Mashup ?

In web development, a mashup is a web application that combines data from more than one source into a single integrated tool; thereby creating a new and distinct web service that was not originally provided by either source. (Wikipedia)

What is Mashup ?

Mashup is a combination of web page/service pieces

Ex: Weather Mashups

JavaScriptFlash/FlexSilverlight

What is Mashup ?

Mapping mashups are ahead from the others

80% of data all over the world has a geocomponent!

What is Mashup ?

Google Maps API is also ahead of other APIs

Welcome to Cloud Computing

What is Cloud Computing ?

What is not Cloud Computing ?

They are not datacenters above the clouds

What is Cloud Computing ?

They are distributed systems.What to connect is important then where to connect.

Service Oriented Approach (SOA)

What is Cloud Computing ?

Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet.

Users need not have knowledge of, expertise in, or control over the technology infrastructure "in the cloud" that supports them.(Wikipedia)

Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) Platform as a service (PaaS) Software as a service (SaaS)

What is Cloud Computing ?

More clouds doesn’t mean that everything is OK

What is Cloud Computing ?

Who are the well known players in this area?

Amazon (S3 and EC2) Google (Google App Engine – public beta) Microsoft (Azure – private beta)

What is Cloud Computing ?

Available Services to PublicGAE has support for all parts of development

Updated :Java support isadded.

What is Cloud Computing ?Why Google App Engine?

It is used both for storing tiles, GIS queries and analysis. (Thanks to Arc2Earth Clouding Services)

Google App Engine’s advantages are over others: No need for hardware and software Scalable (Same app. for 1 to 1 Million user) Free (Up to some limitations)

Future Model

For complex Analysis

Initially, it is unlikely to include the sophisticated abilities of existing GIS servers but it will provide the 20% of functionality that is used 80% of the time. (acc. to Brain Flood)

Demo

Backstage of our Mashup

ExtMap Framework (ESRI DevSummit winner) – based on Google Maps API, ESRI REST API and ExtJS Framework

Conclusion

Mashups are better for ordinary users, but can also be useful for intranet users if the UI performs well.

Cloud Computing makes mashups easier than before, due to its dynamic and scalable structure based on services

There is a need for usability as well as performance.

THANKS FOR ATTENTION!
