Procedure details
Description
Geodata is data that has a spatial reference. This includes basic geodata from the surveying administration, such as aerial photographs and topographical maps. There is also specialist geodata. This is information from specialist authorities, such as data on protected areas, noise propagation or the monument status of buildings. Today, geodata is mostly available in digital form. Numerous authorities and other institutions make their geodata available on the Internet. In some cases, geodata is provided in the form of standardized Internet services (geodata services) so that it can be integrated directly into geospatial applications. Some organizations also operate specialist applications on the Internet in which geodata and services are permanently integrated.
The aim of a geodata infrastructure (GDI) is to simplify access to geodata, geodata services and applications.
The Geoportal Bayern is an Internet application that provides easy access to geodata, geodata services and applications.
The Geoportal Bayern has two basic components:
- The search function allows you to search for specific geo-resources. On the one hand, you can search for individual words (technical terms or geographical information) such as aerial image, monument or Upper Bavaria. On the other hand, combined search queries can also be processed, for example the combination of a technical term and a geographical specification (e.g. urban land use planning Augsburg). Geodata sets are displayed as search results of the geodata search. All linked geodata services and/or applications are displayed for the individual geodata sets. The download services found during a search (Web Feature Services or pre-defind Atom download services) can be downloaded using a download client or within a GI system. It is also possible to filter search results according to various criteria.
- The selected display services can be transferred and viewed directly in a map viewer, the BayernAtlas. It is possible to combine the integrated services as required. The BayernAtlas, which contains maps and aerial images from the surveying administration (geodata) as a background, can also be called up independently of search results.
The search function and map viewer (BayernAtlas) are closely interlinked, making it possible to switch quickly between the two components.
