Abstract

ABSTRACT The access to geographic information on Web through common browsers (browsers) has grown as vertiginously as the network of networks in conjunction with the WWW (World Wide Web) services. By presenting general purpose maps with sophisticated interactive and customizable tools, spatial information is recovered with access to Databases, to perform visual analysis or recovery from the Base of Geographic Objects; without complexity, accompanied by the high cost usually implied by professional systems softwares. It describes the problems raised in the country and main lines of work followed, to join the global development based on initiatives of the OpenGIS International Consortium (OGC). Next, objectives outlined in the present investigation are expressed. Finally, a brief summary of how it is organized is provided. A geomatic solution is developed that is executed in a local server to publish and consult geographic information, to improve the self-learning process through access to maps, based on the specifications of the OpenGIS International Consortium, which supports the set of application requirements GIS on the Web. According to the execution of the application and taking into consideration the survey carried out in the students of the Third Baccalaureate of the Eloy Alfaro Educational Unit, the dissemination of the software is considered so that it can be evaluated by the educational authorities.   KEYWORDS: geomatics, map design, thematic maps, education
