Title Of Article :
Geographic Information Systems Of Historic Residental Areas And Archaeological Structures : A Case Study Of Denizli
Abstract :
Recent archeological searches have been revealing a new cultural heritage day by day. In order to preserve, classify and analyze the data of these heritages and make it accessible easily for the users, the data needs to be digitised. In addition to the feature data of archeological values, the application needs to be supported by GIS as it includes the locational information. Denizli, having a long history, is one of the major tourism destinations with its archeological features. In this study, the spatial database and user interface of the ancient residential areas and buildings within the borders of Denizli have been developed.This GIS model, which works on the web server, has been created via forming an interaction among six different software technologies, each of which has a seperate working discipline and it provides substantial information to the visitors such as the location of important settlements and areas, how to reach there, its history and the related academic studies. In this study, Pitney Bowes MapInfo Professional as GIS mapping program, Microsoft SQL Server as spatial database, GeoServer as map server are chosen. The processed digital maps are stored on Microsoft SQL Server database. The application model which is developed whitin this concept,aims to be a digital guide for the cultural inheritance.
