Abstract :
Gis2web is a system intended to bridge the gap between GIS software and datasets and the WWW. The system operates by periodically accessing distributed datasets of GIS information and creating a common repository of WWW accessible information on a gis2web server. In this way gis2web users are provided seamless access to different datasets which may be of quite different forms. This paper discusses the architecture and communications issues of gis2web
