Web-mapping with editing capabilities?



I'm embarking on a new web map project that seeks to display simple geometries (lines, points, polygons) and rasters/basemaps. Ideally, the map will also allow authorized users to add/remove/edit geometries and their attributes.


What are the available options for the storage of data (e.g. SQL Server Spatial)?


What are the available options for the presentation of data (e.g. ArcGIS Server)?


I'm new to web mapping and am attempting to build a solid understanding of the available options and their pros/cons.



Answer



Take a look to OpenLayers for client side, it offers in a simply way all you seems need. As previously suggest to you by Dassouki, take a look to the example page: http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/ find for 'edit' For example: http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/editingtoolbar.html


For server side I personally bet for OS project, IMO they are incredible good quality and there is nothing they need to envy to proprietary software: GeoServer + PostgreSQL/PostGIS
