Abstract

The purpose of the study is the development of a method for integrating non-spatial and geospatial data from different sources for the online dynamic mapping of Uzbekistan at different spatial scales. From the perspective of using open resources in socio-economic cartography, the challenges and perspectives of using online open non-spatial statistical data through the government portal of the Republic of Uzbekistan are considered for web mapping. The method is suggested for building a web-based spatial visualization tool and getting geographic information. In the case when open geospatial data is not available, it is suggested to integrate non-spatial statistical data of open sources into the environment of web mapping. For using new opportunities and tools of geospatial technologies a methodology of using open resources including open datasets, open source software and cloud computing are widely used on all stages of map development. It has been confirmed that this approach represents one of the valuable opportunities for geospatial modelling in developing countries. The benefits of integrating government open non-spatial statistics have been verified through an interactive mapping population at the national, regional, district, and city levels to be effective in addressing policy and governance issues for decision-makers and practitioners.
