Abstract: A method for determining a value indicator in a broker-mediated geospatial information service (GIS) environment includes receiving, from a second system via a communication network at a first system of the broker-mediated GIS environment, from a plurality of respondents, feedback data relating to: a broker-mediated GIS based upon geospatial data relating to at least one of natural features, constructed features and boundaries on the Earth, the geospatial data including location and characteristic data, and a geospatial information process for geospatially processing a dataset provided to each respondent of the plurality of respondents. Each respondent of the plurality of respondents is a prior requestor of a process-dataset solution for performing the broker-mediated GIS. Based on the feedback data, a value indicator is determined relating to a process-dataset solution based upon the geospatial data and the geospatial information process.

Abstract: A method includes receiving from a requestor search criteria for a geospatial information service. The requestor selects a dataset for use in providing the geospatial information service. A plurality of processes is determined, resulting in process-dataset solutions to the search criteria including the selected dataset. In particular, each process-dataset solution includes the selected dataset and a process of the determined plurality of processes. A list is provided to the requestor, the list including the plurality of process-dataset solutions.

Abstract: A method for providing a geospatial information service in a broker-mediated geospatial information service environment includes receiving a request at a broker system from a requestor. The request includes search criteria for returning geospatial information to the requestor. A plurality of process-dataset solutions is determined, each process-dataset solution comprising a process and a dataset to be processed thereby so as to perform a geospatial information service for returning information based on geospatial information to the requestor in accordance with the search criteria. A list is provided from the broker system to the requester, the list including the plurality of process-dataset solutions as well as a value indicator that is associated with each of the provided process-dataset solutions.
