Abstract
The increased use of spatial data in the Internet is facilitated by standardised Web Services for the selection, access and presentation of spatial data. Transmitting large quantities of spatial data, however, demands for efficient reduction of the data sets and presentation of the data on an appropriate level of detail, which can be achieved by generalisation functions. Cartographic readability of a displayed map set similar requirements. These, therefore, demand for an internet service for generalisation. In the context of the GiMoDig project, a prototype of such a generalisation service has been developed and implemented. This prototype can serve as a step towards a standardised generalisation service.
