Many organizations usually have separate implemented GIS (Geographic information system), CAD (Computer Aided Design), business systems, etc.., and most of these systems has been developed by different manufacturers, that are difficult to integrate. The main aim of this paper is to present review of performed achievement in the field of access and exchanging of geospatial data. Today, one of the biggest challenges in dealing with data is interoperability between different heterogeneous systems. In order to increase productivity and efficiency of the organizations, it is necessary to remove barriers between different technologies, using method of interoperability and open standards. Solution of OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium) for exchanging geospatial information is based on the usage of web services, specialized for the processing of geographic data. Today, there are Open Source and commercial GIS servers that greatly facilitate the development of Web GIS applications, which represents major progress in the usage of geospatial data in relation to standard desktop GIS applications. With Web applications, geospatial data are considerably closer to a much broader range of users. The result of this paper is presented as an example of implementation GIS solutions module of fixed line access network using Open Source Server and OGC Services.
