  1. Where does the “Geo” fit ? “Portal 101” Seminar

  2. Outline Where does the ‘Geo’ Fit? • ‘Geo’ is the Portal site (a.k.a.GIS Portal, GeoPortal) • “Geo” in Portal sites • “Geo” supports Portal sites

  3. ‘Geo’ is the Portal Site Hierarchy of Portal Typesderived from: Ovum's taxonomy of portals Portal Public Web Marketspace MegaPortals VerticalPortals B2B B2C EnterpriseCorporate Complete Partner Portals Intranet Internet

  4. A GeoPortal Definition(?) • Enterprise Portal, a framework for integrating information, applications, and processes across organizational boundaries therefore • GeoPortal, a framework for integrating information, products, applications, and services across organizational boundaries geospatial

  5. GeoPortal Advantages • Search & Discovery • Finding the geospatial information you need in many ways from many sources • Collaboration • Connecting geospatial information suppliers to users • Categorization • Organizing geospatial content into channels that people commonly use • Aggregation • Composing live maps from many distributed web map services

  6. GeoPortal Value Proposition • To improve the relationships between end-users, partners, and suppliers of geospatial information • To improve the quality of service provided to end-users and partners • To improve operational efficiency by stimulating self-service

  7. GeoPortal Sites • Generic GeoPortal sites • Geospatial One-Stop Operational Portal • Arkansas Geographic Information Office • Specialized GeoPortal sites • Alabama Emergency Management Agency • Conservation GeoPortal

  17. Per Portal Architecture

  18. ‘Geo’ supports Portal Sites • At the Content Management Layer • Technologies that support the publishing, management and retrieval of information • Opportunities: • Support a user-defined geographic constraint to searches performed against structured or unstructured sources [ keyword(s) + bounding box ]

  19. ‘Geo’ supports Portal Sites • At the Identity Layer • Technologies that support the personalization of content and presentation to the needs of each user • Opportunities: • Filter pertinent news/information to one’s registered Area-Of-Interest (AOI) • Alerts - automatic email delivery of public notices relevant to one’s registered Area-Of-Interest (AOI)

  20. ‘Geo’ supports Portal Sites • At the Integration Layer • Technologies used to integrate the portal with the rest of the technology infrastructure • Opportunities: • spatial adapters toprovidegeo-validation services

  21. ‘Geo’ supports Portal Sites • At the Management Layer • Technologies supporting the management of the portal and understanding its usage • Opportunities: • Business Intelligence • Where are the users from ? • What are the areas of interest?

  22. Summary • GIS Technology is very pertinent to Portal implementations • GeoPortals are poised to be the next generation online presence for partnerships • GeoPortals in advance of a Corporate eGov Portal is possible and can be strategic • End-user value of GIS technology is likely most perceived at the presentation layer
