Design and development of a Web based GIS platform for zero energy settlements monitoring

To support the next generation of multi-process big data and service-orientedcomputing, a Web-GIS platform is

considered a viable solution for gathering and sharing of collected data from various case studiesΝΖΕsettlements,

so that the information flows are easily managed and interpreted, by meansof spatial thematic maps related to

specific levels of information, within the various case studies. Smart interoperable sensor networks installed in the

various case studies’ buildings, districts, and energy subsystems are prerequisites forthe formulationof the physical

layer of the monitoring platform. The aim of the present paper is to analyze the characteristics and architecture of a

Web GISPlatform for Zero energy settlements monitoring.

The platform development is based on open software tools, targeting to be a flexible and interoperable toolfor zero

energy buildings and communities.
