Abstract

This paper describes the objectives of the SEQUOIA 2000 project and the software development that is being done to achieve these objectives. In addition, several lessons relevant to Geographic Information Systems (GIS) that have have been learned from the project are explained.

This research was sponsored by Digital Equipment Corporation under Research Grant 1243, DARPA Contract #DABT63-92-C-007,NSF Grant #RI-91-07455, and ARO Grant #DAAL03-91-6-0183
