Abstract :
The paper presents a novel design of a web-based Safe City & Coastal Zone GIS (SCCZ-GIS) which integrates data acquired from different remote sensing and geospatial data sources for monitoring the security of the coastal zone, its inhabitants and Critical Infrastructure. The system utilizes several innovative technologies and directly co-operates with different remote sensing data sources and services, like a satellite ground station or ESA Service Support Environment. The results of analysis are ready in quasi real time, e.g., immediately after receiving the new scene of satellite imagery. Also, the system is accessible for authorized users by a client application oriented either to a browser-based personal computer platform, or to mobile devices.
