Fig. 3: The Counter Mapping System (CMS) in e-land System enables users to quickly and easily produce hard copy output. Maps are able to be printed using predefined layout templates and detailed maps allowed to be produced.

Fig. 4: The Charting Module of e-Land System is able to populate the graphical object of a particular application into Charting layer which resides in the SLDB database.

At the heart of the proposed e-Land System, GIS Module is the object-relational database that is based on Oracle Spatial with MapInfo Professional as the front-end. Oracle Spatial is an Object-Relational Database Management System (ORDBMS)

E-Land System uses MapInfo GIS Software as it fulfills the spartial functinal

requirements for the project.

The Intranet Map Server (IMS) software was proposed for use in e-Land’s Executive Virtual Browser (EVB). The IMS Software is based on MapInfo MapXtreme technology. The rationale behind the choice of MapInfo MapXtreme is due to the following:

In order to extract full capability and benefits of geographic information and GIS technology, spatial data needs to be shared and systems need to be interoperable. GIS technology provides the framework for a shared spatial data infrastructure and a distributed architecture.

Better technology and better system makes better management and exploitation of GIS applications.
