Abstract
Many continuous phenomena affect everyday human life.In this paper, the issue of continuous field management has been faced under several points of views, from the design to the implementation stage. The resulting environment provides domain experts with a formal visual approach to conceptually depict mini-worlds of interest embedding spatial data. It is based on an extended version of the OpenGIS standard architecture, thus guaranteeing a natural integration with solutions derived by previous conventional approaches.
