52 North WPS

About

The 52°North Web Processing Service (WPS) enables web access to geospatial processing algorithms provided by Sextante, ArcGIS Server, R, GRASS 7, or custom developed functions. Algorithms may be as simple as determining the difference in influenza cases between two different seasons, or as complicated as a global climate change model.
