Abstract
Most Web-based geographic information systems (CISs) are stand-alone. Our t echnique aims to integrate a collection of Web GISs into a system, providin g more transparent and efficient access. Users can access the data stored a t any of the participating sites as though all the data come from one site. We based our technique on Common Object Request Broker Architecture (Corba ) and Java.
