Introduction
Idea
This project aims to include the audio, video, and SOS(Sensor Observation Service) input support to the MapMint4ME. MapMint4ME is an android application for MapMint web-service. MapMint is an internet-based Geographic Information System(GIS), designed to facilitate the deployment of Spatial Data Infrastructure(SDI). In an SDI, geographic data, metadata, tools, and the users are connected in an interactive manner in a framework so as to use the spatial information in an efficient and flexible way.
The MapMint is built on top of the ZOO-Project. The ZOO-Project is an SDI manager which gives the users the capability of building their own map and web-applications.
Advantages from this project
Audio and Video data is an important feature for creating an instance of the real world scenario. Many times, GIS users require collecting data from locations where the internet is not accessible. The idea is to store the data locally at that time and then storing that to the database, once the internet connectivity is possible. Also, It is not possible for the human to reach every corner of the world and take data continuously. For such situations, sensors could be deployed and the sensor data could be directly retrieved to the database using MapMint4ME.
Reports
May 4 - May 14
- The part, I completed in this period:
- Installed MapMint.
- Tried to understand the code flow of MapMint.
- The part, I plan to complete in the upcoming period:
- Publish data using MapMint and continue to understand the code flow of MapMint4ME.
- Learning outcomes and the problems faced:
- The dependencies should be checked before installation. The issues which I faced during installation are compiled in points and can be followed at url.
May 15 - May 25
- What I have done in this period?
- Introduced myself to the ZOO-project community. It was a splendid feeling to interact with the developers who already are the masters' of their domain. :)
- I installed the tables and import modules in the MapMint. The tables module helps in viewing the database.
- I published the local map data using MapMint. Though I got stuck due to some errors. I am working on it so that the local map data of my region can be published without any errors.
- Refreshed concepts of Android development and Java. Some of the links I referred are compiled here.
- Plans for the upcoming period-
- Continuing the study of Android development so that it will help in the main coding period.
- Learning about the tools for documentation of the project.
