Practical Experience with a Contextual Map Service
Original language description
A year ago, the development of a Contextual Map Service called Sissi began. As it has been introduced in previous research articles, the purpose of this service, which is based on the OGC WMS specification, is to implement the idea of contextual cartographic visualisation into the web environment. Today, we have the first functional prototype of Sissi, which was tested in November of 2008 during a field experiment called "Transport of Dangerous Goods II". This chapter consists of four sections. The first section briefly introduces the terms "context", "elementary context" and "contextual cartographic visualisation". The second section deals with the main principles of the Sissi Contextual Map Service and with the practical creation of the complex context structure. The next section focuses on assigning the map's content and symbology to particular contexts, with special attention paid to map symbology that is described by the OGC Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD) specification.
