Rich OX Client

This application realizes a Java-Swing frontend of the OX-Framework. It focuses on the generation of manifold visualizations of O&M-encoded sensor data received from a SOS. But the application allows also the connection to WMS-, WCS- and SAS- instances.

The application offers the user basic GIS functionality. This includes e.g.:

  • Display of a map view
  • Display of an associated legend
  • Display of a chart view
  • Management of map layers
  • Zooming and panning of the current geospatial extent
  • Controlling of temporal animations
  • Picking and selecting of shown map feature objects

The generic architecture of the underlying OX-Framework and the well-structured design of this application make it easy to customize it and to extend it with new use-case specific features.

Demos

The following demo videos show this client application in action. In this example the client is utilized to explore sensor data captured by weather stations in South Africa. The user has already added 3 WMS layers to the map and has zoomed to the region around Cape Town.

1. Connecting to an SOS

2. Selecting the "Features Of Interest" (4 weather stations close to Capetown)

3. Producing diagram visualizations

4. Producing animated visualizations

5. Rendering an interpolation by using the _Inverse-Distance-Weighting (IDW)_ algorithm
