Geo-based application services linked with the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Web Processing Service (WPS) protocol have been regarded as an important standardized framework for of digital earth building in the web environments. The WPS protocol provides interface standards for analysis functionalities within geo-spatial processing in web-based service systems. Despite its significance, there is few performance tests of WPS applications. The main motivation in this study is to perform the comparative performance test on WPS standards. Test system, which was composed of WPS servers, WPS framework, data management module, geo-based data processing module and client-sided system, was implemented by fully open source stack. In this system, two kinds of geo-based image processing functions such as cloud detection and gradient magnitude computation were applied. The performance test of different server environments of non-WPS, synchronous WPS 1.0 and asynchronous WPS 2.0 was carried out using 100 threads and 400 threads corresponds client users on a web-based application service. As the result, at 100 threads, performance of three environments was within an adjacent range in the average response time to complete the processing of each thread. At 400 threads, the application case of WPS 2.0 showed the distinguished characteristics for higher performance in the response time than the small threads cases. It is thought that WPS 2.0 contributes to settlement of without performance problems such as time delay or thread accumulation.

WPS/PQR is the essential documents for shipbuilding welding. WPS is the document containing the information related to welding procedure and PQR is the record of approval for welding procedure. Both documents should be approved by the ship owners and the classification societies. It is very important to manage these documents because the welding procedure using these documents could not be carried out before they are approved. Database is an useful tool to manage these documents. It can manage a number of documents and show the processing status of WPS/PQR documents. In this study, all documents related to WPS/PQR documents were investigated and analyzed in the viewpoint of DB. An appropriate DB system was designed for WPS/PQR and the related documents on the basis of CBD methodology. The DB system could make WPS/PQR documents easily and shortly. The grasp of the processing status of WPS/ PQR could help the good management of fabrication schedule in shipbuilding.

In general, Digital Photogrammetry is based on independent workstation system, which is costly and has complex process. In this research, a new approach method regarding Digital Photogrammetry procedure is suggested using Web Processing Service, which is a GIS standard proposed by Open Geospatial Consortium. For the experiment, many Generic Processes were defined through WPS profiling procedure which defines standard unit for Photogrammetry, and with the defined process each server and client S/W module was implemented based on WPS standards. In this paper, many users can be expected to share and reuse unit process in WPS server through the web.

Analysis and sharing of spatial information can be made possible through the reuse of spatial analysis processes, and the sharing of spatial models on the web. However, the deployment of spatial analysis models is possible, only when the difficult tasks of model design and the exchange of spatial data are overcome. In this study, a WPS spatial analysis model is defined, based on the OGC standards, and applied to the 'Selection of Housing Units for Water Supply' application. BPEL was used to define the sequence of processes and to enable the exchange of spatial data. To this end, WSDL was defined for WPS and WFS accesses, the sequence of spatial processes was defined in BPEL, and XSLT was defined for the exchange of XML data. The WPS model was designed and deployed using the Apache ODE which provides RESTful binding. It is expected that effective decision making will be easier using the web based spatial analysis models which are realized by WPS Orchestration with BPEL, as presented in this study.

In this research, eight waterproofing membranes were selected from commercial market and the tensile adhesive characteristics of the waterproofing system (WPS) on concrete bridge deck were investigated in view of various factor in asphalt pavement. Tensile adhesive strength (TAS) test of different asphalt pavement types showed that TAS of WPS under SMA (Stone Mastic Asphalt) pavement was greater than that under dense asphalt pavement. Tensile adhesive strength (TAS) of sheet membranes was improved as the compaction temperature of asphalt concrete increase, but TAS of liquid membranes were not. TAS of sheet membranes after wheel tracking test were in the order of the sites under wheel path (UWP), before wheel tracking (BWT) and nearby wheel path (NWP), Since TAS of the same WPS of UWP was higher than TAS of BWT, wheel loading had function of pressing WPS resulting in higher adhesive strength, But liquid membranes were variable on types, The feature of detached interface after T AS test showed that sheet types were all detached in between deck concrete and WPS, and liquid types were detached in between asphalt pavement and WPS,

The most typically utilized positioning method in the existing indoor WPS that is a positioning method utilizing distributed wireless network is the finger print. Its positioning is carried out by calculating the difference between the AP information map and WiFi AP signal collected. However, there are problems like low accuracy and high cost when the existing method and the radio map formation are applied to outdoors. In this paper, the characteristics of the existing WPS are surveyed and their problems are examined. In addition, we propose a new WPS using weak signal and a method to construct radio map in order to solve the above problems. And then, the results of experimental test will be analyzed.

Recently, location-based service as the developed continuously, interest in positioning technology is increasing. As the most famous indoor positioning technology, WPS is a positioning technology using WiFi, which can complement the limits of the indoor positioning to have a GPS. In this paper, to provide a system for monitoring the position of the inside of the user based on the position information that using the RSSI signal of the wireless AP based WPS technology, they grip the location information of the mobile nodes in the indoor. If using the method proposed, it is expected to be applied to various services it is possible to apply the WPS, this is because it is possible to estimate in real time the location distribution of mobile nodes in the indoor.

According to wide civilian utilization of multi sensor satellite information, practical needs for fusion processing and interoperable operation with multiple remote sensing imageries within distributed remote server are being increased. For this task, OGC standards with respect to satellite images and its derived products are crucial factors. This study is to present an applicability of WPS through testing implementation of image processing algorithm. Open sources such as Geoserver and OTB were used linked to WPS application for implementation. WPS can be solely used for web service supporting geoprocessing algorithm, but technical consideration compromising with other important standard protocols including WMS, WFS, WCS, or WMTS is necessary to build full featured geo web for remote sensing imageries. It is expected that application of these international standards for geo-spatial information is an important approach to produce value-added results by interoperable processing between interorganizations or information dissemination containing practical satellite image processing functionalities.

WPS determines position via a two-step process. In the construction phase, a radio map is constituted by collecting radio information signals. Positioning procedure is a step of comparing the radio signal newly acquired with the radio map. If the signals collected and the radio map are different the accuracy decreases. Even though the rate of accuracy is different according to positioning algorithms, accuracy drop is an issue common to all WPS systems. Signal strength fluctuation is caused by the malfunction of the device that receives positioning signals, obstruction and channel interference, etc. In this paper, in order to solve the problem caused by signal strength change, we propose a new radio map construction technique. The proposed method is intended to constitute a strong radio map to changes in the signal strength and updated by collecting the signal strength changes to the radio map. The use of this method is expected to enhance the accuracy of WPS by actively counteracting signal fluctuation.
