Abstract
We have developed a ROCOCO Library and a ROCOCO Google Maps which are the libraries to help creator of WWW application with Ajax which is the modern web developing technique. The ROCOCO Library has functions for XML HTTP communication, JSONP communication, bar chart view and matrix view. The ROCOCO Google Maps is the library based on the ROCOCO Library and has features for automatically generating menus to control Google Maps and overlaying the layer of filled meshes to the base map. To examine the improvement of development efficiency, two web contents have been developed with ROCOCO Google Maps for web services. The first is the Rice Diagnostics System for Kinki, Chugoku and Shikoku region, and the other one is Cropping Strategy Support System for Vegetables. We confirmed that the JavaScript source code could be greatly reduced by the use of ROCOCO Google Maps.
