ABSTRACT

XML supports the data exchange between databases on web; it can provide the network share of the database of slope login using XML. This chapter introduces the work of establishing the web database for landslides and engineered slopes using the XML technology. China is bestowed with abundant water energy resources, ranking at the first in the world in terms of hydropower. Stability of high slopes is an extremely prominent problem when developing these power stations. According to the slope property, the water conservation and hydropower engineered slope can be divided into three kinds: excavation slopes, reservoir slopes and the river bank slopes. XML has many advantages in database application. First, Cross platform. XML file is text-based file, not only restricted to OS and software plat. Second, it is simple and straight-forward. The generalized XML technology can realize the data transfer cross platforms. It has simple readable and extensible characters.
