Paper Abstract:
|
At present, the access to geographic information and its overtaking by various users are not easy. Indeed, between the
rigidity of the available access languages and the ignorance of the organization of information within the GIS, the user is
often facing information which is available but no exploitable. To solve this problem and to facilitate the access to
geographic information, we propose in this article a visual approach for querying GIS according to a figurative approach
based on the definition of a visual language. The following sections in this article will try to identify, by the presentation
of the prototype ENVIS, the benefits which can be drawn from this visual dialog which offers to the user a means to
formulate a geographical query in an intuitive and simplified way. |
