A High Adaptive Rapid GIS Application Development Method
Track: Defense and Intelligence
Author(s): Andrew Hu

Conventional software development methodologies often fail to address the GIS application development needs due to the complex and dynamic nature of GIS projects. This paper presents a high adaptive rapid development method for GIS application development. It was designed to quickly setup the GIS software development with small project initiation/startup cost, and allows high flexibility and continuous refinement and enhancement to the design during the software development process. It is an incremental development approach which strives to provide cost effective GIS solutions to meet customer's short term and long term needs. It is a rapid application development process committed to quickly deliver quality GIS software products to customers in a tight schedule and offers continuous improvement as the customers gradually adapt to the new GIS system and become ready to take advantage of more advanced GIS and information technologies.
