How cartography is used on the Internet? What are the main products, services?
What are the issues of the cartography on the Internet (lots of wrong maps, semiology, …)

recette cartographique versus système expert (meta-recette)
architecture OGC dédiée à la cartographie thématique
applications à plusieurs niveaux du politicen à l'expert en passant par l'amateur, le citoyen, le journaliste, etc
Solution: an architecture based on exisiting OGC standards (WMS, WFS, TJS, SE/SLD) + an expert system that implements semiologic rules.
Methodology and results:
Presentation of the OGC standards and their potential use in cartography
