Tsunami Warning System in the Indian Ocean
An overview of the Tsunami Warning System in the Indian Ocean using WMS and WFS. Data is stored in a MSSQL database and rendered by MapServer using an OVF map-file (this simulates a geometry coming from two lat and lon coordinate column). The information window pops up using the usemap module in MapBender.
