The client sends requests for information to a server through the Web using HTTP. A server is a program that receives the request from the client and transfers the request to a servlet. The servlet is a small Java program that runs on the server. The servlet obtains the information from the data source and then sends the result back to the HTTP server, which transfers the information back to the client. 8 PCI Geomatics
Understanding How the Web Services Work Figure 1.1: Understanding Web services Data Source Client Servlet HTTP Server 1. The client sends a request to an HTTP server. 2. The HTTP server passes the request to the servlet. 3. The servlet obtains the requested file from the source and returns it to the HTTP server. 4. The HTTP server sends the file back to the client. Understanding the Geomatica Web Feature Service A Web feature service provides access to features available on the Web. As described by the Open GIS Consortium (OGC), a feature is “a digital representation of a real world entity or an abstraction of the real world. It has a spatial domain, a temporal domain, or a spatial/temporal domain as one of its attributes. Examples of features include almost anything that can be placed in time and space, including . . . cities, trees, forest stands, ecosystems, . . . ". 1 The Web Feature Service (WFS) available in the Geomatica WebServer Suite consists of a WFS client and a WFS servlet as shown in Figure 1.2. The WFS client (1) is accessed through Geomatica Focus. Using the WFS client, you send a request to any compatible Web feature service on the Web, it returns the results of the request to the WFS client, and then the features are displayed as 1.

January 2004, http:// www.opengeospatial.org/techno/abstract/00-106.pdf a layer in Geomatica Focus. With the WFS servlet (2) you can make your geospatial features available to others through the Web. Figure 1.2: How the WFS works Geomatica Focus as the WFS client Using the WFS Client A Web feature service somewhere on the Web HTTP Server A client somewhere on the Web WFS servlet Data sources containing the features that you want to publish The WFS client is accessed through the Remote Data Wizard dialog box in Geomatica Focus. To open the Remote Data Wizard dialog box, select File in the main menu, click Open, and click the Remote Data button. You do not need to configure the WFS client. For information about how to use the WFS client, refer to the Geomatica Focus User Guide. Geomatica WebServer Suite Installation Guide 9
