“This paper deals with the design of a Web Processing Service Application Profile for spatial analysis in business marketing. Since the possibilities of the Web Processing Service Specification 1.0 concerning application profiles are limited, we discuss methods how to enhance the current specification. This shall demonstrate how future Application Profiles might be developed. Therefore we present how a specific application domain can be examined in regard to the spatial analysis being used and how the results could be transferred to an application scheme. The application domain is taken from business analysis. Therefore, the basic requirements concerning spatial analysis in business marketing are being exposed and structured. To illustrate one example in more detail one method is analyzed and its structure is defined. Based on this results some general benefits and limits concerning an OGC Web Processing Service Application Profile are being identified.”
