Current Web GISs, which are accessed by using connection based approaches, are very inefficient in fulfilling the requirements of GIS applications under open, dynamic, heterogeneous and distributed computing environments such as (Mobile) Internet. In this paper, we propose a new system for accessing and sharing distributed geographic information by using mobile agent and GML technologies, in which mobile agents are used to overcome the limitations of traditional distributed computing paradigms in (mobile) Internet context and GML is adopted as the common format for spatial information wrapping and mediation, while SVG is used as a web\u2010map publishing format that can be processed and displayed in Web browser. A prototype is implemented, which demonstrates the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1108\/17440080780000304","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,6,5]],"date-time":"2010-06-05T07:15:48Z","timestamp":1275722148000},"page":"143-153","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["MAGGIS: A Mobile\u2010Agent and GML Based Distributed Geographic Information System"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"2","author":[{"given":"Jihong","family":"Guan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Jiaogen","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Shuigeng","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"unstructured":"Y.
