Developing a location viewer for Residential Property System (ReProS) using spatial database / Farashazillah Yahya

Over the years, the importance of spatial databases is growing rapidly, partly as a result of
the recognition that the applications extend well beyond the traditional domain of GIS.
Location is a powerful way of identifying and characterizing information because many data
sets have footprints m space. Obviously, for a residential area, information is worthless if
there is lacking knowledge about its location. At this time, there are no help on gaining
location maps of residential area in Malaysia websites. It is a particular problem for house
buyers in retrieving information. On the other hand, developers confh)nt troubles in
describing their new residential area. An analysis of user requirement by verifying the
existing user requirement had proposed a spatial database design to encounter the situation.
The creation of spatial database for the location viewer has enabled a development of a
model. Presently it had been demonstrated as capable of viewing a location map and other
location information. Precisely adding up, the location viewer model had assisted the user in
retrieving more information of a residential area in terms of viewing a location map and
measuring distance between the residential area and required facilities.
