Abstract :
In large organizations and small firms in transportation, there is a growing need to use and analyze spatial data. Transportation system analysis and planning as well as mobility studies frequently use Geographic Information Systems (GIS). In this paper we propose the development of a web services platform dedicated to transportation and logistics. Taking advantage of the web services development framework PyOpenCF we integrate in the same environment services oriented to geolocalization, logistical optimization, etc. We develop a PyOpenCF client whose graphic interface allows processes with spatial data to be launched and provides a visualization of the results.
