RESUMO

Geographic Information System (GIS) is software directed to the management of geo-referenced data. GIS are systems used to store, to analyze and to manipulate geographic data, or either, data that represent objects and phenomenon where the geographic localization is an inherent characteristic. In this study, Web GIS is a system that provide different services of GIS, such as analysis and visualization of geographic data through the Web. The purpose of this work is to consider a development and performance testing processes for Web GIS applications. The development process proposed integrates artifacts of NDT (Navigational Development Techniques) and the Organizational Semiotics. The process of performance testing proposed deals with the inherent characteristics of Web GIS applications, such as great volume of data and load of simultaneous users, supplying a set of well detailed test activities. These activities are integrated in a robust process, where the starting point was identification of the critical use cases that the process needs to be tested. For this, we assumed that the requirements of the system had been correctly specified. The processes proposed of development and performance testing had been applied in the evaluation of the Web Maps system, a Web GIS application whose goal is helping its users in the agricultural planning from interest regions.
