GeoSearch: A Specialized Search Engine for Geographers

GeoSearch is a dedicated search engine designed specifically for geographers, enabling them to search, view, and download shapefiles that store geographical data such as latitude, longitude, and physical addresses. This platform integrates both our internal database and external data sources through meta-search functionality. Developed using Adobe Flex and other modern web technologies, GeoSearch provides an intuitive user interface and dynamic rendering of shapefiles, ensuring that users can preview data before downloading. The project utilizes Apache Solr for indexing and MySQL for data storage.

  2. Project Description • This project aims in developing a specialized search engine for geographers where they can search, see and download the shapefile (shapefile is a format of saving geographic files which stores latitutde, longitude, physical address, etc in it). • It will not only allow geographer to search in our own database but it will also have a functionality to search on other data sites hence we will also integrate the meta search into our own search engine. • It will have pretty heavy UI as it will be on adobe flex GIS API which will help to render the shapefile dynamically and lets the user to choose if they require the same data before downloading it.

  3. List of Software • We will be using Adobe Flex, HTML, CSS for User interface development. • We will use Apache Solr for searching and indexing our own database. • We will use MySql as our database for storing the shapefiles. For business logic we will be using JSP.

  4. Individual Work • As it is a big project and difficult to segregate but Our own search engine, database and all integration will be handled by Shubham Nigam, • User Interface design will be handled by Raihan Jamal. • And Metasearch functionality will be handled by Ameya Patil.

  7. …cont’d • That is a screenshot taken from this website http://geoss.esri.com/geoportal/catalog/main/home.page • So our screenshot will be similar to the one I pasted and will be having some extra features like meta search engine that is not there in that.

  8. Sample data • We will collect data from different government web sites and mostly from the labs.
