GIS Platform Development Prototype
The GIS platform offers the users the possibility to download the visualized datasets
(when download is available for the corresponding datasets). The placement of the
download controls was developed in cooperation with the GeoVITe project. The GUI
design for download management shown in Fig. 8, allows the user an optimal access to the
download controls for selecting/deselecting layers and for selecting the size of the area for
download. Moreover, the download folder enables the user to manage the selected
downloads individually.
