Quality of Water Body and Pollutant Management System by SuperWebGIS

Sept. 16, 2009 - PRLog -- SuperGeo Technologies, a leading global provider of GIS software, develops ‘Quality of Water Body and Pollutant Management System’ for the Environmental Protection Bureau in Yilan County, Taiwan.  

Yilan County has been a very popular tourist area in Taiwan due to the beautiful landscape with lakes. With the rapid development in transportation, more people are attracted to visit the place. However, garbage and pollution increase as well, which not only influences the scenery but also damages the original water ecology and environmental sanitation.

In order to protect river environment, the Environmental Protection Bureau of Yilan County plans to investigate water pollution, expecting to provide basic data for pollution analysis through GIS system and to assist in decision-making. The goal is to improve water quality and increase management efficiency.

This project, called ‘Quality of Water Body and Pollutant Management System’, uses SuperWebGIS, SuperGeo’s Server GIS Software, and program design to build a database management system. Through the system, the staff can display files and charts, query, orient and modify files online through SuperWebGIS without installing any Internet browser plug-ins. As a result, the staff at the Bureau can easily position the required information through the system and do the advanced analysis with GIS tools. The business unit can also upload the existing information to database then display on the Web to share information with the public.

Besides, in respect of data exchange mechanism, the system supports WMS (Web Map Service) developed by OGC (OpenGIS Consortium).

The system not only assists the local authority concerned about the quality of water body but also allows related units to trace the pollutant promptly as the abnormal condition occurs to prevent pollution from getting worse. The system also provides a cross-unit service platform for integration of geographic information files and systems, which will simplify the procedures, reduce administrative cost, increase water quality controlling efficiency and significantly improve the current water quality situation in Yilan County.
