Improving Productivity and Quality of GIS Databases Design using an Analysis Pattern Catalog

Sodre, V.de�F., Filho, J.L., Vilela, V.M. and Andrade, M.V.A.

    An analysis pattern is any part of a requirement analysis specification that can be reused in the design of new information systems. Analysis patterns permit reuse in a higher level than object-oriented class specialization. This paper describes how an Analysis Patterns Catalog can be applied to improve the productivity during development of GIS application and, consequently, the quality of their databases. The catalog is attached to the ArgoCASEGEO, an open source CASE tool that supports the UML-GeoFrame conceptual model, specific for geographic databases design. The analysis patterns collection is stored in a database composing the Catalog, which is structured through directory architecture. Thus, searching for existing analysis patterns will be an easier and more efficient task.
