Modern tools for development of interactive web map applications for visualization spatial data on the internet

Abstract

In the last few years has begun the development of dynamic web applications, often called Web2.0. From this development was created a technology called Mashups. Mashups may easily combine huge amounts of data sources and functionalities of existing as well as future web applications and services. Therefore they are used to develop a new device, which offers new possibilities of information usage. This technology provides possibilities of developing basic as well as robust web applications not only for IT or GIS specialists, but also for common users. Software companies have developed web projects for building mashup application also called mashup editors.
