Monitoring CMS tracker construction and data quality using a web service based on a visualization tool

We describe here the deployment of a visualization tool as a web service to monitor the CMS tracker. The results obtained with a first prototype consisting of a Java client which implements the GUI and a data server connected to the CMS construction database and event store on the Grid are promising. This tool will allow access to monitoring data and services by tracker experts from anywhere in the world: something essential for a detector built by an international collaboration. The main representation used is a schematic 2-D map of the whole tracker: its use is essential for fast monitoring on the web.
