CHAPTER 01
INTRODUCTION
The CyberGIS system is designed based on the vision “make use of existing GIS data
providers and expand that technology into new levels, that the society can make more use
of it in their domains.” So we proposed and developed a web based system that users of
this system can tag their geographically distributed domain entities on a map, customize
these entity details and, store and share them only among other required and authorized
parties within the domain.

At the time when we were proposing the CyberGIS system there were GIS Systems either
that required high GIS and mapping knowledge which bit complex (ESRI ArcGIS) or
very simple with few functionalities (Google Map). Very Complex GIS Systems avoided
the wide and general use by many potential domains as high costs, requirement of GIS
professional and less usability. On the other hand very simple GIS Systems did the same
thing by not providing authorized and secure data access, less customizability and no
reporting and analysis features.

As a solution to this problem we developed the CyberGIS system with capabilities as
mapping entities, manipulating entity data, mobile operative command, reporting and
analysis while ensuring customizability, usability, security and performance.

So we would like to believe the CyberGIS is a concept rather than a system that will
grow into higher levels that will help potential geographically distributed domain to store,
track and coordinate their distributed entities and facts. Also this concept will assist
decision making and planning by providing reporting and analysis capabilities.

CHAPTER 02
LITERATURE SURVEY
A GIS is a system that incorporates software, hardware, and data for collecting,
managing, analyzing, and portraying geographically referenced information. It allows the
user to view, understand, manipulate, and visualize data to reveal relationships and
patterns that solve problems. The user can then present the data in easily understood and
disseminated forms, such as maps, reports, or charts (http://www.gis.com/content/what-
gis, 2011).

2.1 Similar Systems
During our literature survey of similar systems we studied about Google Maps
(maps.google.com, 2010) and ESRI ArcGIS (http://www.esri.com/, 2010).
Google Maps is a web based GIS system that built on HTML and Java scripts. They use
spatial map data and satellite imagery that is provided by various authorities such as
NASA, Tele Atlas, Map Link, Europa Technologies, etc… They provide mapping data
free for web based non commercial use, but charged for commercial use. When we
compare CyberGIS system with Google maps, CyberGIS is also developed on Google
Maps API and then inherited the features of it. But in the CyberGIS we tried to overcome
the Google Maps disadvantages by providing features such as private and authenticated
data domains, map data customization, storage and manipulation of offline map data,
time series analysis and reporting of stored map data. But in the CyberGIS we have left to
implement map data search and route finding features which is drawbacks form Google
Maps (http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/, 2010).
ESRI ArcGIS from the other hand is a complete desktop based GIS suite that provides
very complex functionalities. They also provide private and secure data access,
customization of domains, data analysis and reporting. But ArcGIS has its disadvantage
by been a very high rated license product and required specialized GIS professionals to
map data in to the system and design and customize the system for private domain use.

2

But it has advantages over the CyberGIS by having a high feature set, engineering and
architect level standards and its offline map storage (ESRI, 2002).
But the CyberGIS system introduces a new level of features by providing mobile
operative command and feedback, and real time mobile operative tracking which makes
this a unique product.

2.2 Theoretical Background
During the literature survey of the theoretical background we did look into mainly two
GIS information providers and they are:

1. Open Street Map: http://www.openstreetmap.org/

2. Google Maps: http://maps.google.com/

After reviewing the above two external GIS providers we decided to go with Google Map
V3 API due to their reliability, quality of map imagery /choices of different map image
types as : hybrid ,satellite and their array of functions provided by them Free or charge
(http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/, 2010).

We studied time series analysis techniques used in Statistics for the implementation of
the CyberGIS analysis features (SPIEGEL, 1961).

2.3 Required Components
During the literature survey of the required software components of the project we‟ve
decided to choose the spring framework as our base enterprise we framework for building
our business logic on. Other than spring we will be using the Java Persistence API (JPA)
and Oracle (toplink) ORM for database access and database manipulation. For the mobile
operative end user component of the CyberGIS system we‟ve used the Java J2ME
technology. Also we used Primefaces API to use with JSF because of its easy and high
end look and feel UI component set (www.Primeface.org, 2010). Also in combination
with that we used Java managed beans to implement the CyberGIS GUI module

CHAPTER 03
PROPOSED METHOD
3.1 Introduction
The CyberGIS system is basically provides the GIS solution with extended
functionalities. The system will provide customizable web based domain maps. The
system creates domains for separate users which are working with controlled and highly
secured access to the CyberGIS web service. So a particular user can only access to their
domain and view maps for their domain. Users can manage their domains as they want
using granted access rights and customized capabilities. As any other GIS system,
CyberGIS will provide the basic map operations like Search for locations, Find location
using latitude and longitude, Zoom In and Zoom Out, Scroll the map, View location
names and tags, Show Roads and Railways. Other than to these, users can create any
tags, markers and locations as related to their business requirements. Those remarks are
only visible to those particular domain users only. Past records are kept with the system
for each user and can be retrieved as statistics in any situation. Those details are highly
secured and provide controlled access. Those statistics are available to management
decision making and planning processes of the clients.

3.2 System Requirements
System requirements for the CyberGIS system basically divided into two categories as
functional requirements and non functional requirements. More details can be found in
CyberGIS System Requirements Specification document.

4

Functional requirements:-
Title Description
System Customization. User of the CyberGIS system will have
private domains. So the users should be able
to customize these domains as they want by
defining data within it.
Provide Map Information. CyberGIS system should provide basic map
information as map details, marker details.
Live and Updated Information. CyberGIS system should display live data
feed by the domain users and mobile
operatives as well as updates from map data
providers.
Statistics and Historical Data Analysis. CyberGIS system should support statistical
analysis of stored data in the domain
databases.
Data Archival and Retention. Data input by the domain users as well as
mobile operatives should be stored within the
domain databases. Also transaction history
should keep in the DB.
User Profiles, Roles and Privileges. Domain user should be divided into several
access levels on their roles and privilege.
These access levels should be authenticated in
order to access to the system.
Reporting. CyberGIS system should support generation
of reports based on stored data in the domain
databases.
Mobile Operative Command CyberGIS system should be capable of
communicating with mobile operative using
CyberGIS mobile component via internet.

5

This includes sending messages with map
data to the operatives as well as gets
feedbacks from them.
Real-time Operative Tracking. CyberGIS system should be capable of
tracking mobile operatives using built-in GPS
devices on their mobiles.

Table 3.1 – Functional Requirements
Non Functional Requirements:-

Non functional requirements are discussed under following categories. Please refer
CyberGIS System Requirements Specification document.

 Performance and Load Requirements.
 Compatibility Requirements.
 External Interface Requirements.
 User Interfaces Requirements.
 Communications Interfaces Requirements.
 Security and Authentication requirements.
 Quality Assurance Requirements
 Development Requirements.
 Deployment Requirements
 Special Documentation Requirements
 Applicable Standards Requirements.
 Usability Requirements.

3.3 Main Components and Flow
 The work flow of the CyberGIS system is illustrated in the following Figure 3.1.
According to that there are main two components of the system.
1. Main console.
2. Mobile Device.
 The main console will get the map data by an existing map data provider like Google
Maps. Those map data are displayed on the main console. Users can add customized
domain markers on the map by specifying marker details. Those markers represent
some domain entity or fact and marker data are saved on a database.
So users can view saved markers on the map, manipulate marker details, generate
historic trend reports and pattern analysis using stored data.
 There are registered domain operatives with the system and as they login with their
mobile devices main console users can retrieve details of those operatives on the main
map. This also allows the users to send messages to a selected operative via web with
map instructions. So operatives can view those messages and send response
feedbacks to main console that can be view by the users.

3.4 Project Plan and Approach
The project approach is based on the agile methodology and MSF (Microsoft
Framework) and it allows requirement, environment and technological changes to reflect
within product releases.

CyberGIS is developed using the various tools chose by us and we consider free and open
source software and tools. These tools include Eclipse and NetBeans IDEs for
development, Tomcat server technology for deployment, MySQL for DB deployment and
various 3rd party java tools, plug-ins and web services as required. Also JAVA and JSF
with Primefaces API are used as the programming technologies. Then Google Map API
and services are used for GIS manipulation. Also SVN is used for release management
and version control. The project team consists of 3 members with initial roles but all were
working on each role as required.

Project plan consists all the project activities, schedule and deliverables of the project.
Project activities are basically encapsulated as project deliverables and delivered in
several phases. Also project plan is subdivided into several sub plans for each category.

CHAPTER 04
DESIGN OF SOFTWARE

Figure 4.1 – General Architecture

Overview of the CyberGIS General Architecture

When designing the CyberGIS System we‟ve decided to choose the spring framework as
our base enterprise we framework for building our business logic on. Other than spring
we will be using the Java Persistence API (JPA) and Oracle (toplink) ORM for database
access and database manipulation. For the mobile operative end user component of the
CyberGIS system we‟ve used the Java J2ME technology. The two web modules of the
Cybergis GUI module and the CyberGIS service module will be hosted in the Apache
Tomcat server 7.0.12 and the J2ME application will be run (for the development phase)
on the sun java j2me standard development kit version 3.0. If the take the individual
components of the cybergis system they could be mainly divided into 03 major modules.
They are:

11

1. CyberGIS Service Module.
2. CyberGIS GUI Module.
3. CyberGIS Mobile Component.

CyberGIS Service Module – High Level Design

Figure 4.2 – CyberGIS Service Module High Level Design.

The CyberGIS Service Module is the Heart or the Central Hub of the entire cybergis
application. It contains all the business logic classess, the JPA layer classes used to
perform database operations using the ORM framework and manages the three JMS
messages queues. The CyberGIS Service Module exposes it‟s methods to be called by
other modules by using Java RMI and SOAP based Document+Literal Style web
services.

12

If we take a closer look at the CyberGIS Web Service Module It Consist of several
packages and each of those packages consist of several classes. Therefore for us to be
able to explain the entire system in a simple manner we‟ve divided the class diagrams by
their packages and presented below using their class names. For detailed information of
each of the classes in the packages mentioned below please refer the appropriate
appendix mentioned beside the classes.

i. The RMI DTO Package

These are the DTO classes that are responsible for transporting data via Java RMI
between the CyberGIS GUI module and the CyberGIS Service Module. These classes are
all serializable classes that support sending data through the wire/network in distributed
applications. For a detailed inside look at these classes please refer to the diagram on
Appendix B2.i.

13

ii. Service DTO Package

This set of classes is the DTO classes that are used to transfer data between the CyberGIS

single database table in the cybergis system. For a detailed inside look at these classes
please refer to the diagram on Appendix B2-iv.

v. Web Service Package
These are the set of classes responsible for implementing the web service component of
the CyberGIS service module. This service module is mainly responsible for operations
that occur between the cybergis mobile client and the cybergis web service module. For a
detailed inside look at these classes please refer to the diagram on Appendix B2-v.

15

vi. Servlet Package.
This is the package where the servlet responsible for retrieving the messages in the
message queue by the mobile client. Due to the limitations in the J2ME web services api
the J2ME mobile component of the cybergis system used this servlet to retrieve the
messages in the cybergis operator message queue in xml format.

vii. Utility Package
This is the package where all the utility classes responsible for all the cybergis operations
are found. These classes are centrally defined in the utility package as the functionality of
the classes are universally accessed by almost all the other classes in the cybergis service
module packages. For a detailed inside look at these classes please refer to the diagram
on Appendix B2.vi.

CHAPTER 05
FABRICATION OF SOFTWARE
For the development of the software we‟ve used java as the core development language.
All the components & technology frameworks used are mainly core java based
implementations.

When writing the software the 03 main software components of the system we‟re used
the following technologies and software to come up with a distributed web based
cybergis software solution.

Client Browser
We could use any type of latest client browser like google chrome or IE7 to use the
administrative web component of the cybergis system.

HTTP/HTTPS Network
The CyberGIS system is currently available via both HTTP network. And in the future it
will support HTTPS based networking.

Web Application Server
The web application server used in developing the CyberGIS system is the apache tomcat
7.0.12 web application server. For our system we‟ve configured this application server to
have ActiveMQ embedded inside the application server.

Database Server
The Database server used in the CyberGIS system is the mysql database server.

Integrated Development Environments
The Intergrated Development Environments.NetBeans with J2ME development plugn &
Eclipse have been for developing the cybergis system.
Web Framework
The Web framework used is the Spring Web framework to develop this system.

23

GUI Development Framework
The GUI development framework used in the CyberGIS is called the primefaces
(www.primefaces.org). This is a is a lightweight open source component suite for Java
Server Faces 2.0 featuring 100+ rich set of JSF components.

ORM Framework
The ORM framework used in developing the CyberGIS System is the toplink oracle orm
with the Java JPA framework.

24

CHAPTER 06
TESTING AND IMPLEMENTATION
Test Objectives

A primary objective of testing the system is to assure that the system meets the full requirements,
including quality requirements (Non-functional requirements) and fit metrics for each quality
requirement and satisfies the use case scenarios and maintain the quality of the product. At the
end of the project development cycle, the user should find that the project has met or exceeded all
of their expectations as detailed in the requirements.

Any changes, additions, or deletions to the requirements document, Functional Specification, or
Design Specification will be documented and tested at the highest level of quality allowed within
the remaining time of the project and within the ability of the test team.

The secondary objective of testing the system will be to identify and expose all issues and
associated risks, communicate all known issues to the project team, and ensure that all issues are
addressed in an appropriate matter before release. As an objective, this requires careful and
methodical testing of the application to first ensure all areas of the system are scrutinized and,
consequently, all issues (bugs) found are dealt with appropriately.

Assumptions for the Test Execution

 For User Acceptance testing, the Developer team has completed unit, system and
integration testing and met all the Requirement‟s (including quality requirements) based
on Requirement Traceability Matrix.

 User Acceptance testing will be conducted by End-users
 Test results will be reported on daily basis using reports.
 Failed scripts and defect list from reports with evidence will be sent to Developer
directly.
 Use cases have been developed by Adopters for User Acceptance testing.
 Use cases are approved by test lead.
 Test scripts are developed and approved.

25

 Test Team will support and provide appropriate guidance to Adopters and Developers to
conduct testing
 Major dependencies should be reported immediately after the testing kickoff meeting.

Test Deliverables

Testing will provide specific deliverables during the project. These deliverables fall into three
basic categories: Documents, Test Cases / Bug Write-ups, and Reports. Here is a diagram

Figure 6.1 Test Deliverables

As the diagram above shows, there is a progression from one deliverable to the next. Each
deliverable has its own dependencies, without which it is not possible to fully complete the
deliverable.

Bug Classification Strategy
Bug Severity and Priority fields are both very important for categorizing bugs and prioritizing if
and when the bugs will be fixed. The bug Severity and Priority levels will be defined as outlined
in the following tables below. Testing will assign a severity level to all bugs. The Test Lead will
be responsible to see that a correct severity level is assigned to each bug.

26

The Test Lead, Development Lead and Program Manager will participate in bug review meetings
to assign the priority of all currently active bugs. This meeting will be known as “Bug Triage
Meetings”. The Test Lead is responsible for setting up these meetings on a routine basis to
address the current set of new and existing but unresolved bugs.

Severity Severity Severity Description
ID Level
1 Critical The module/product crashes or the bug causes non-recoverable
conditions. System crashes, GUI Faults, or database or file corruption,
or potential data loss, program hangs requiring reboot are all examples
of a Severity. 1 bug.

2 High Major system component unusable due to failure or incorrect
functionality. Severity. 2 bugs cause serious problems such as a lack
of functionality, or insufficient or unclear error messages that can have
a major impact to the user, prevents other areas of the app from being
tested, etc. Severity. 2 bugs can have a work around, but the work
around is inconvenient or difficult.

3 Medium Incorrect functionality of component or process. There is a simple
work around for the bug if it is Severity. 3.

4 Minor Documentation errors or signed off severity 3 bugs.

Test Coverage

Unit Test

Unit testing was carried out for each component in the CyberGIS GUI application and
Mobile Client Application and for each service module in the web service.

27

Regression Test
Regression testing was carried out to verify that any changes done as a bug fix will not
affect the functionalities of the working components. Every time when we make bug fix
we did the regression testing to all the system components.

System Test
The System tests will focus on the behavior of the CyberGIS system. User scenarios will
be executed against the system as well as screen mapping and error message testing.
Overall, the system tests will test the integrated system and verify that it meets the
requirements defined in the requirements document.

Performance Test
Performance test will be conducted to ensure that the CyberGIS system‟s response time
meet the user expectations and does not exceed the specified performance criteria. During
these tests, response times will be measured under heavy stress and/or volume.

Compatibility Test
Compatibility testing was carried out to check the application compatibility with the
browsers since the application is fully web based and check other software and hardware
compatibility constraints.

Stress and Volume Test
We will subject the CyberGIS system to high input conditions and a high volume of data
during the peak times. The System will be stress tested using twice (5 users) the number
of expected users.

Security Test
Security tests will determine how secure the new CyberGIS system is. The tests will
verify that unauthorized user access to confidential data is prevented.

28

Test cases are written and executed manually for the GUI and Mobile applications and
automated test cases are used to test the service module. As results of the testing phase
we generated the Test Case documents with the results and identified bugs.

Implementation of the system mainly focuses on database implementation and
application implementation. We used MySQL server as our database engine. So we need
to implement the database in either the application server or a separate server.
Application server needs tomcat server service to implement the Cyber GIS application.
For the mobile clients we provide a separate executable .jar file to install in to the mobile
device which may implement the CyberGIS application in the devices. When the tomcat
server which contains the application and web service started, Users are imposed to the
CyberGIS application. They can access the application console through any web browser
through a provided URL. (i.e. http:// 127.0.0.1:8080/gis-app/)

System Performance

In software engineering, performance testing is testing that is performed, to determine
how fast some aspect of a system performs under a particular workload. It can also serve
to validate and verify other quality attributes of the system, such as scalability, reliability
and resource usage. With related to performance testing there are few other types of tests
which are correlated with it.

Load Testing

Load testing is the simplest form of performance testing. A load test is usually conducted
to understand the behavior of the application under a specific expected load. This load
can be the expected concurrent number of users on the application performing a specific
number of transactions within the set duration. This test will give out the response times
of all the important business critical transactions. If the database and application server
are also monitored, then this simple test can itself point towards any bottlenecks in the
application software.

29

Stress Testing

Stress testing is normally used to understand the upper limits of capacity within the
application landscape. This kind of test is done to determine the application's robustness
in terms of extreme load and helps application administrators to determine if the
application will perform sufficiently if the current load goes well above the expected
maximum.

Endurance Testing (Soak Testing)

Endurance testing is usually done to determine if the application can sustain the
continuous expected load. During endurance tests, memory utilization is monitored to
detect potential leaks. Also important, but often overlooked is performance degradation.
That is, to ensure that the throughput and/or response times after some long period of
sustained activity are as good as or better than at the beginning of the test. It essentially
involves applying a significant load to a system for an extended, significant period of
time. The goal is to discover how the system behaves under sustained use.

Spike Testing

Spike testing, as the name suggests is done by spiking the number of users and
understanding the behavior of the application; whether performance will suffer, the
application will fail, or it will be able to handle dramatic changes in load.

Performance Measures
 Concurrency/Throughput
 Server response time
 Render response time
 Performance specifications

30

Performance Testing Methodology

We have followed the following activities to conduct the performance testing:

 Identify the Test Environment.

We have to identify our test environment first. We haven‟t hosted the site in a real
time application server. So we are unable to test some parts of the application
with real working environment. So need to use simulators to simulate the system
and test those components. Apache tomcat 7.0.12 is our application server.
CyberGIS GUI module and web service modules are deployed on apache tomcat
server. To test the CyberGIS mobile client we have used Remote Device Access
provided by Nokia Developers as the simulator for mobile device.
(http://www.developer.nokia.com/Devices/Remote_device_access/ ) As the
network connection, mobile broadband connection is used with 3.2 mbps
bandwidth. All types of web browsers available are taken as software. We used
the available resources up to maximum level for testing.

Having a thorough understanding of the entire test environment at the outset
enables more efficient test design and planning and helps you identify testing
challenges early in the project. In some situations, this process must be revisited
periodically throughout the project‟s life cycle.

 Identify Performance Acceptance Criteria.

The acceptance criteria for the CyberGIS are to provide a response time less than
30 seconds for any operation of functionality, allow concurrency access to the
system for 100 mobile users and 10 administrative users. Message queue should
capable of handling 1000 messages in the queue till message delivery. Expected
throughput for the mobile operative message sending should be delivering 30
messages per minute. Zero down time should be maintained to provide efficient
performance.

31

 Plan and Design Tests.

Tests should design to check the following:
- Check the loading time of any web page
- Allow concurrency access of 10 administrative users and 100 mobile users
- Send operative messages to the concurrent users within 30 seconds
- Check the network delays
- Stress handle In message queue
- Hardware or software failure handling
- Load balancing

For the above tests we defined the test data with 12 operative users, 36 mobile
users, 840 map markers, 8 snap shots and 1290 operative messages with 210
responses. All administrative users and mobile operative users are going to use
the system concurrently, 840 markers to be located in the map, 1290 operative
messages to be delivered to mobile users and 910 feedbacks to be received during
tests. There should be metrics to collect the responses for the page loading time,
operative message delivery time, operative response receiving time, network
delays and load and stress measures.

 Configure the Test Environment.

To prepare the test environment, first we have to start the Apache tomcat
application server and start the CyberGIS web module, GUI module and mobile
client module. Then we need to start the web browsers and navigate to the
application. Meanwhile the simulator should be started to test the mobile client.
To measure the response time and other measurements we have to equipped with
timers and calculators. Also other required resources should be properly allocated
before executing the tests.

32

 Implement the Test Design.

To measure the system performance we need to carry out the above mentioned
Load testing, Stress testing, Soak testing and Spike testing. The goal is to identify
the performance measures by conducting tests and measuring results and response
times. We need to write a proper set of test cases to execute while testing. There is
a set of manually written test cases and automated test cases (implemented using
JUnit component) designed to test the system performance. Refer Appendix F for
details.

 Execute the Test.

We start the Apache tomcat server and deploy all three modules and create the
test environment first. Administrative user login function for 12 users was carried
out through several web browser instances. For mobile operative user login
function, remote device access simulator was used provided by Nokia developers.
Using several simulator instances we create 36 concurrent operative user logins.
The logged in administrative users are assigned to add 840 map markers to make
a huge load, stress and network traffic. Administrative users need to login again
and load the added map makers. That is to check the page loading time. Also
report generation wizard used to test the web page loading time. More
administrative users are logged in to system and load the main panel at the same
time to test the load balancing. 1290 operative messages were sent to 36 logged in
mobile operative users by 12 administrative users consecutively within minutes.
That is related to spike testing and stress testing. To check the response time
mobile users are instructed to accept the messages and send responses.
While running the above test items we monitor outcomes and following results
are observed:
- It is possible to concurrently use the system for more administrative users
and operative users than expected.
- Simultaneous operations done by the administrative users were holds the
maximum network bandwidth.

33

- Same operation by multiple users at the same time (more than 10
occurrences) will cause to network delays exceeding 30 seconds.
- Web page load gives immediate response within 08 seconds and takes 40
seconds to finish loading all components of the map. (840 map markers)
- Report generating wizard takes 24 seconds to respond with such amount
of markers and 12 concurrent requests.
- While increasing the concurrent users than the expected level, page load
time increases than performance specifications. (Load balancing takes
place)
- Operative message takes 05 seconds to reach the destination.
- Responses for the operative messages received in 03 seconds.
- Message queue was able to handle 15 messages per minute when it
exceeds expected queue length.
- Messages without accepted by mobile users are waiting in the queue more
than 15 minutes and holds the resources.
- Throughput for browsing a web page with concurrent access is around 25
seconds.
- Failure in application software (web browser) will lose all non saved data
with it.

 Analyze Results, Tune, and Retest.

After collecting results for the tests, we have to analyze them and make some
adjustments to improve the performance of some sections. Obviously we have to
do a code change since we are unable to go beyond the recommended hardware or
software configurations. To provide a response within 30 seconds, we changed
the map zoom level in 12 as default. We have to timeout the mobile operative
messages in the message queue if they are not accepted by mobile operators. This
is to maintain the throughput. Providing a faster internet connection will keep the
response time reduced. After doing changes we have to retest the functionality to
check the improvements.

34

CHAPTER 07
RESULTS
As the results, we include the test results here.

In all the test cases conducted through the testing phase about 85% of the tests are
succeeded and only 15% of the tests come up with bugs. Please refer the table in
Appendix F for details. Expected results of the test cases are appeared as the actual
results. So the status of the test is „Pass‟. Out of the bugs found, we have immediately
fixed 80% of bugs which are highly related to functional and performance indices of the
application. We are more focused on test results which are in „Fail‟ status with having
high test priority when resolving the bugs immediately. There are few things remained
found as minor issues and we need to address those as future works since those are
currently not affected to the system performance and functionalities.
At the end we found that all Unit testing, System Testing, Regression Testing,
Performance Testing, Compatibility Testing and Security Testing which we have
completed are succeeded. With the test results we can come to a conclusion that system‟s
functional and non functional requirements are addressed properly.

35

CHAPTER 08
CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
8.1 CyberGIS GUI Module.
The following features and functionalities have been identified as future works under the
CyberGIS GUI module.
 Marker Proximity Ruler and Alerter :-
By the "Ruler" feature CyberGIS main console users will be able to measure the
distance to each marker (including mobile markers) from a specified central origin
point. So CyberGIS main console users will be able to specify the central point and
get updated proximity measurement according to that. By the "Alerter" feature
CyberGIS main console users will be able to view the details of markers, within a
specified proximity circle from a specified central origin point. Both these features
will work as a single unit.
 Automatic Real Time Operative Tracking :-
Currently operative tracking is not fully automated and the CyberGIS main console
users have to refresh the operative location in order to get the update location. By this
proposed feature operative tracking will be fully automated and updated locations
will be refreshed on the CyberGIS main console map in a specified time intervals.
 Hardware Sensor Based Real Time Telemetry :-
By this functionality it is proposed to gather various data required by domain users
through hardware sensors, attached to CyberGIS Mobile component and send them to
the CyberGIS main console for real time monitoring. So the CyberGIS GUI module
will include a dashboard component in order to support this feature.

36

8.2 CyberGIS Mobile Component.
In the future the system is expended to be expanded by porting the J2ME client software
to newly available high end mobile phone operating systems like: Android & iPhone.
Currently it supports all Symbian OS based mobile phones like S40 6th Edition & S60 3rd
Edition Phones. Other than this we wish to expand the service end by adding a
dashboard for live monitoring services where the user will be able to monitor live
statistics about the current functionality of the system.

8.3 CyberGIS Service Module.
As a conclusion we can say that, CyberGIS Service Module maintains the connectivity
between Cyber GIS application and database. All user requests and operations are
addressed through service methods provided in this module.
Code optimization and further expansions of the available services can be done as the
future works. The objective of this is to reduce the resources usage by the application
during the execution. More code level validations can be implemented to provide
additional security to the system.
We are focusing to make the system available with live statistics with the use of service
module improvements.
