Uma aplicação que usa banco de dados geográficos para cadastro de geoformas no estado da Paraíba

Abstract

This paper presents the development of a web application based on a geographic database to support the registration and management of information on rocky outcrops which are relevant to aesthetic and scientific points of view. In the state of Paraíba, some of these monumentes are found; they are examples of granite formations and are located in Pedra da Boca State Park in the city of Araruna, and also in Mar de Bolas do Rochedo de pai Mateus, in the city of Cabaceiras. This application is intended to provide a tool for managing information concerning the landforms, ie, forms the Earth's surface with variable sizes. In the development of the concepts were studied related to geoforms and the technologies needed to build the prototype. To develop application techniques were applied techniques inherent in software development process that address the lifting of some requirements necessary for the application, modeling, database design and implementation source code. This work was fulfilled with the development of a geographic information system with the ability to provide maintenance information interactively using the Google Maps API v3 for viewing.
