Through a web browser interface, web mapping makes it possible to view geographic mapping on the internet. Web GIS (Geographic Information System) is another name for web mapping. Its attractiveness mostly stems from the flexibility with which mapping may be accessible, while also offering a natural approach to work with geographical information. This makes it possible for people other than GIS experts to utilize mapping applications.
