Description

<p>In the 21st century, Web spread explosively, and today is the time geological information can send cheaply, at high speed, with improvement of the expressive power. In the Web site to which geological information is offered, interactive processing is important to correspond to the user's wide various needs flexibly. Smart Tiles architecture was designed for improvement of interactive processing. This architecture adds a high-speed tile conversion process between the conventional pyramid tiles on the server side in a tile map system and client display processing. To use this architecture can achieve speeding and highly functional at the same time compared with technology of existence using WebGIS, WMS and a usual tile. The tile conversion process can be implemented to both server side and client side. We applied this architecture to the Seamless Geological Map of Japan using server side implementation, and could make the function which visibility of each geological unit is changed at high speed. It's also possible to apply this architecture besides the geologic map.</p>
