Abstract

In this paper, we design and implement CURAP: a unique geo-related information sharing platform. It is a way for people to easily create original maps, and share them with others. Google Maps' My Maps function is currently a widely used platform for the same purpose, but its sharing features have restrictions. For example, the whole map has to be embedded into a certain web page using Google's viewer, and users cannot directly search the map for geo-related information. Users can only search for text information described in the same page. In contrast, CURAP can search for and share geo-related information directly, and it enhances re-use of a good map created in the past on existing systems.
