Therefore research in the field of environmental modeling focuses on adequate flexible simulation methods and powerful interoperable GIS interfaces to implement these methods. This paper shows approaches towards an interoperable object-oriented GIS interface for atmospheric modeling and analysis. The architecture and specifics of a first prototype system, called AtmoGIS, are presented.Text/Conference Paper
