| 1 \section{Overview of the GNV-System} | |
| 2 | |
| 3 The GNV systems consists of the mainly 4 components, serving the | |
| 4 following tasks: | |
| 5 | |
| 6 % FIXME: Add architecture of the system in english | |
| 7 | |
| 8 \begin{enumerate} | |
| 9 \item Artefact-Server | |
| 10 The Artefact-Server is a middleware component, managing the core tasks: | |
| 11 \begin{itemize} | |
| 12 \item Access to the database backend | |
| 13 \item Providing a RESTful-Interface with a XML-based protocol to serve | |
| 14 \item the expert information systems (FIS) with their products | |
| 15 \item (diagrams like timeseries, verticalprofile, map layers) to make | |
| 16 \item them accessable for the GNV-WebClient | |
| 17 \item Processing of data for interpolation, classification and vectorisation | |
| 18 \item Configuration capabilities for FIS and products | |
| 19 \item Caching database result sets | |
| 20 \item Managing the WMS-Server for creating maps dynamically | |
| 21 \end{itemize} | |
| 22 | |
| 23 \item Database Backend | |
| 24 Database schemata like ESRI ArcMarineBSH, ArcS57 and CONTIS can be | |
| 25 served out of a ESRI ArcSDE 9.3.1 database. | |
| 26 | |
| 27 \item WMS-Server | |
| 28 The WMS-Server provides maps via the standardized interface of the OGC | |
| 29 Web Map Service. The configuration is managed through the | |
| 30 artefact-server depending on the parameterization done be the user in | |
| 31 the GNV-WebClient | |
| 32 | |
| 33 \item GNV-WebClient | |
| 34 The GNV-WebClient is a thin webbased client providing a HTML-based user | |
| 35 interface for the user to parameterize the FIS and products via the | |
| 36 XML-based protocol provided by the artefact-server through its | |
| 37 RESTful-interface. Within the client the user can manage these tasks: | |
| 38 \begin{itemize} | |
| 39 \item Select FIS, producs and their parameterisation | |
| 40 \item Visualize different diagrams like timeseries, vertical- and | |
| 41 horizontalprofiles, vertical and horizontal cross-sections and map | |
| 42 layers | |
| 43 \item Calculate and visualize (histograms) statistics | |
| 44 \item Export diagrams for printing in PNG, SVG, vectorized PDFs | |
| 45 \item Export data as in raw formats like CSV, Ocean Data View (ODV) and | |
| 46 ESRI Shapefiles | |
| 47 \end{itemize} | |
| 48 | |
| 49 The GNV-WebClient can be integrated with different MapViewers. The | |
| 50 GNV-WebClients supports a XML-based interface to the MapViewers | |
| 51 describung geometrical data and information about | |
| 52 used layers in order to adapt the selection of FIS and areas of interest | |
| 53 for the parameterization. | |
| 54 \end{enumerate} | |
| 55 | |
| 56 The systems has been designed as a distributed system. This manual | |
| 57 descibes the installation of a centralized system on one server for the | |
| 58 middleware and an existing database server. | |

| 65 deploying in Apache Tomcat | |
| 66 \item \verb| cgi-mapserver-gp_5.6.3-1~gp+1_i386| -- UMN MapServer | |
| 67 5.6.3 (in Debian Lenny, UMN MapServer 5.0.3) | |
| 68 \item \verb+ installation-admin-manual.pdf+ -- this document | |
| 69 \item \verb+ configuration-manual.pdf+ -- Explaining the configuration | |
| 70 possibilities for the GNV-System in order to adapt FIS and products | |
| 71 (diagrams and maps) according to the database schema | |
