Abstract:

      This paper presents an OpenLayers and TileCache based WebGIS design scheme for the development of a tourist sketch map. OpenLayers is employed to exhibit a tourist sketch map, and TileCache is employed to cache a tourist sketch map. This design decreases development difficulty and cost, and increases display performance and interface functionality. It therefore achieves better customer experience.

Key words: tourist sketch map, feature point, WebGIS, OpenLayers, TileCache
