Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art approach of distributed geoprocessing by describing the related concepts, such as the OGC Web Processing Service, workflows, Quality of Service and legacy system integration. Furthermore, the chapter demonstrates different applications for distributed geoprocessing. Finally, this chapter examines the introduced concepts by two scenarios.
