Outline of Final Research Achievements

Setting up a Web-GIS server, that could combine diverse spatial data and cultural landscape value, was the most important task for this project. Collecting various spatial dataset was also important. A tentative web-GIS server was set up in the first fiscal year, and it was commonly used among project members both in Japan and Australia. An Australian collaborator of this project was invited to the university of Tsukuba to have some discussions on the sharing cultural landscape value by Web-GIS. Finally, the Web-GIS server has been set up in Australia.
