    Data management in multidisciplinary research projects with the River Basin information System
    (EnviroInfo Dessau 2012, Part 1: Core Application Areas, 2012) Zander, Franziska; Kralisch, Sven; Busch, Carsten; Flügel, Wolfgang-Albert
    For the development of strategies for sustainable land management various different tools from different disciplines are needed. Especially there should be tools to deal with the data management and presentation. A tool in the field of environmental data which focuses on this goal is the River Basin Information System (RBIS) which has been developed at the Department of Geoinformatics at the Friedrich Schiller University of Jena. RBIS is a web-based, modular structured platform for environmental data management and data sharing and addresses the management, analysis, visualization and presentation of different types of data in the context of multidisciplinary environmental planning (http://www.rbis.uni-jena.de). The system is used in several inter-/multi-/ and transdisciplinary research projects e.g. “TFO - The Future Okavango” (www.future-okavango.org) or “LUCCi” (www.lucci-vietnam.info) and is based on open source software (e.g. MapServer, PostgreSQL, …) ensuring a cost-efficient deployment and operation. A main focus of RBIS lies in the maintenance of metadata to ensure that information about data provenance, genesis and responsibility are not lost during processing steps applied by external tools or internal functionalities. The corresponding RBIS module stores meta-information about different data types (e.g. time series data) and offers flexible user interfaces for their visualization and manipulation. Since the origin of the system lies in the field of environmental modeling one main module deals with the management of measured and simulated time series data. Beside user-friendly import and export routines and interfaces for analysis and visualization, it provides functionalities for gap detection, rule-based gap filling and statistical analyses. Another main RBIS module allows the management and visualization of vector and gridded geo-data together with associated meta-information according to the ISO 19115 standard. Moreover all datasets (e.g. station, soil, vegetation, observations, …) described by coordinates or an area can be automatically displayed and linked to a map. Moreover, RBIS features additional modules to maintain input and output data for environmental simulation models and store documents. Due to special linkage functionality, data from different RBIS modules can be associated with each other to form problem-tailored views for environmental managers and other users. RBIS is also a standalone part of the Integrated Landscape Management System (ILMS) (http://ilms.uni-jena.de) , which is a modular software integrating different steps of environmental system analysis and planning in a flexible and user-friendly workflow. Therefore RBIS provides different interfaces to access and insert data from external tools. Latest developments are mainly in the field of the user and permission management, introduction of Multilanguage support (current available languages are English, German, Vietnamese, Portuguese and Spanish) and the development of new modules related to new data types (e.g. water management infrastructure). We will give an overview about the system, latest developments and current applications.

    River Basin Information System - RBIS Beispiel Vu Gia Thu Bon RBIS (Vietnam)
    (Umweltinformationssysteme. Big Data – Open Data – Data Variety, 2015) Zander, Franziska; Kralisch, Sven; Brenning, Alexander
    The Vu Gia Thu Bon RBIS (River Basin Information System) has been set up and further developed within the research project LUCCi (Land use and climate change interactions in central Vietnam; http://www.lucci-vietnam.info). It serves as project database to manage environmental basic and result data. The project itself was funded from 2010 to 2015 within the BMBF program ‘sustainable land management’. The Vu Gia Thu Bon RBIS is based on the software platform RBIS (River Basin Information System), which has been developed at the Chair of Geographic Information Science at the Friedrich-Schiller-University of Jena in Germany for more than 13 years. During that time RBIS was applied in several research projects worldwide. RBIS is a modular structured, web-based data and sharing platform with full read and write access. It is built on open source software and standards to support reuse and extensibility of the software. It aims to provide functions to describe, manage, analysis, visualize, link and present different type of environmental data (e.g. time series data, geodata, documents …) and the corresponding metadata. Due to the fine gained user and permission management and multilingual support (e.g. Vietnamese) RBIS can also serve as information system for local stakeholder and external scientists. The software platform RBIS using the example Vu Gia Thu Bon RBIS will be briefly presented.

    Search User Interaction in Multi-Theme Map-based Applications: A Preliminary Assessment
    (Proceedings of Mensch und Computer 2024, 2024) Degbelo, Auriol; Schmidt, Benno; Vuong, Johnni; Henzen, Christin; Zander, Franziska; Lechler, Sarah; Lier, Bernadette
    Map-based web applications are often used to display spatial information in the context of (open) data from the environmental and urban infrastructure sectors. As the number of thematic layers displayed on these applications grows, maintaining user interface intuitiveness becomes increasingly challenging. To provide an initial account of design practices in the area, this article examines 19 map-based applications with multiple thematic layers, along four dimensions: thematic content complexity, functionalities for layer search, legend design and functionalities for the search of location information. We then report on findings from a brainwriting workshop involving 11 participants, during which three applications were used to identify design challenges and opportunities. The observations and design issues presented are relevant to researchers and designers of applications displaying multi-theme spatial information.

    Spatial is Special - User Experience in Geo-Dashboards, Mobilen Karten und Kulturkreisen
    (Mensch und Computer 2021 - Usability Professionals, 2021) Henzen, Christin; Ostkamp, Morin; Degbelo, Auriol; Helbig, Carolin; Maas, Felix; Landerer, Carina; Schmidt, Benno; von den Drisch, Stefan; Zander, Franziska
    Warum sehen Karten in China anders aus als in Europa? Warum scheinen interaktive Karten auf dem Smartphone oft noch nicht intuitiv nutzbar zu sein? Warum gelten Dashboards für Fachthemen, z.B. der aktuellen Corona-Lage, meist als kompliziert zu verstehen und benutzen? Der 3. Workshop Spatial is Special auf der Mensch und Computer greift diese Fragen im Rahmen von drei Trendthemen auf: Geo UX in verschiedenen Kulturkreisen, UX von mobilen Karten und UX von Geo-Dashboards. Interdisziplinäre Teilnehmer*innen diskutieren und erarbeiten diese Themen in mehreren Sessions. Der Workshop wird von Mitgliedern des German UPA Arbeitskreises Geo UX (https://germanupa.de/arbeitskreis-geo-ux) organisiert.

    Using OGC standards for data exchange between the environmental modeling framework JAMS and the environmental information system RBIS
    (Innovations in Sharing Environmental Observations and Information, 2011) Zander, Franziska; Fischer, Christian; Kralisch, Sven
    To develop strategies for a sustainable use and management of environmental systems various different tools are needed. For example tools dealing with data management and environmental modelling. Such tools have been developed at the Department of Geoinformatics at the Friedrich Schiller University of Jena. One of them is the River Basin Information System (RBIS) which is a web-based platform for environmental data management and data sharing and addresses the management, analysis, visualization and presentation of different types of data in the context of multidisciplinary environmental planning (http://www.rbis.uni-jena.de). Another tool is the Jena Adaptable Modelling System (JAMS) for building, running and analyzing environmental simulation models (http://jams.uni-jena.de). There is an existing proprietary interface to exchange data between RBIS and JAMS, which is necessary to cover complex workflows. To enhance both systems to exchange data with other tools and also to standardize data exchange between them, a prototypical implementation using OGC standards (Sensor Observation Service (SOS) based on istSOS 1.0 and WaterML2.0) was developed. We present a prototypical implementation of a Sensor Observation Service (SOS) in RBIS to provide environmental data and an interface for JAMS to retrieve data for environmental modeling using WaterML2.0 as time series encoding standard. After a short introduction to both systems, the implemented SOS and the JAMS interface will be shown. Finally we compare the new implemented interfaces using standardized for data exchange with the existing proprietary interface between RBIS and JAMS and give an outlook to further work.
