Abstract
A data processing system including one or more geographic information systems (GISs) and one or more application programs, in which a common interface supports communication between multiple application programs and multiple GISs. The application programs and GISs may be implemented in different programming languages. Communication may occur in the same physical computer, or locally, or over an Internet.
