ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: The VEPS project aims to develop tools that enable citizens to make comments on planning scenarios online. The user should be supported by digital 3D city models and a close connection between the model and a communication platform. To support this, a modularized service oriented architecture based on OGC web services has been developed. This paper describes the current state of work (spring 2007) of the development and application of the Public Participation Comment Mark-up Language (PP-CoML) developed and used for the transmission and storage of such user comments. A brief comparison of two Open Source WFSs and the exchange of comment data over an OGC Web Feature Server 1.1 will be presented as well.
