Resumen
El Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras “José Benito Vives de Andreis” de la República de Colombia, es una institución que se encarga de realizar la investigación básica y aplicada de los recursos naturales renovables, el medio ambiente y los ecosistemas marinos y costeros. Se visualiza y socializa esta información mediante el geoportal “Sistema de Información Ambiental Marina de Colombia” (SIAM) donde es posible el acceso a la información disponible para la toma de decisiones en el manejo ambiental de las zonas marinas y costeras. En este geoportal se encuentra el acceso a un GeoVisor que es una herramienta dinámica e interactiva que permite acceder a las bases de datos geográficas del SIAM, también se publican los Servicios de Mapas Web (WMS) importantes para la gestión ambiental. Se necesita suministrar a los investigadores y tomadores de decisión la posibilidad de acceder a una aplicación Web que les permita realizar una consulta que calcule la representatividad de un objeto de conservación en las áreas protegidas de orden nacional, pero se carece de una aplicación Web que realice esta consulta avanzada. En el presente trabajo se diseña una aplicación Web que contiene dos servicios, uno de mapas Web y el otro de geoprocesamiento, con este último se puede realizar la consulta deseada a partir de un modelo de geoprocesamiento previamente diseñado con la herramienta ModelBuilder del ArcGIS Desktop. Además se diseña con el ArcGIS Diagrammer el esquema de la geodatabase, éste se implementa y actualiza en la aplicación ArcCatalog como una geodatabase de archivo, que contiene las entidades necesarias para utilizarlas en el diseño del modelo de geoprocesamiento que ejecuta la consulta y el documento de mapa utilizado para ser publicado en la aplicación Web.
The Institute of Marine and Coastal Researches "José Benito Vives de Andreis" from Colombia Republic carries out basic and applied researches about the renewable natural resources, the environment and the marine and coastal ecosystems. The results are socialized through the geoportal "Marine Environmental Information System from Colombia" (SIAM), where it is possible the access to the available information for decisions making in marine and coastal areas management. In this geoportal there is an access to a GeoVisor, which is a dynamic and interactive tool allowing the access to the geographical databases of SIAM and to the Web Maps Services, which are important to the environmental management. It is necessary to give the researchers and decisions-makers the possibility to access a Web application allowing them to make a calculating request about the representativeness of a conservation object in the national protected areas, but there is not a Web application making this advanced request. In this work it was designed an application Web with two services: Web maps and geoprocessing. With the latter the desired consult can be made from a geoprocessing model previously designed using the ModelBuilder tool from ArcGIS Desktop. Additionally, it was designed a diagram of the geodatabase with the software ArcGIS Diagrammer, which is applied and updated in the ArcCatalog application as the file geodatabase, which contains the necessary entities to be used in the design of the geoprocessing model, that carries out the consult and the map document to be published in the application Web.
