Abstract

In a service-oriented environment, an individual geospatial Web service is not sufficient to solve a complex real-world geospatial problem. Service composition, the process of chaining multiple services together, is required. Manual composition of Web services is laborious and requires much work of domain experts. Automatic service composition, if successful, will eventually widen the geospatial users market. This chapter reviews current efforts related to automatic service composition in both general information technology domain and geospatial domain. Key considerations in the geospatial domain are discussed and possible solutions are provided.
