Geospatial Web services allow to access and to process Geospatial data. Despite significant standardisation efforts, severe heterogeneity and interoperability problems remain. The SWING environment leverages the Semantic Web Services (SWS) paradigm to address these problems. The environment supports the entire life-cycle of Geospatial SWS. To this end, it integrates a genuine end-user tool, a tool for developers of new Geospatial Web services, a commercial service Catalogue, the Web Service Execution Environment platform (WSMX), as well as an annotation tool. The demonstration includes three usage scenarios of increasing complexity, involving the semantic annotation of a legacy service, the semantic discovery of a Geospatial SWS, as well as the composition of a new Geospatial SWS.
