Title
Web Service Interface for Data Collection
Abstract
Data collection is a key component of an information system. The widespread penetration of ICT tools in organizations and institutions has resulted in a shift in the way the data is collected. Data may be collected in printed-form, by e-mails, on a compact disk, or, by direct upload on the management information system. Since web services are platform-independent, it can access data stored in the XML format from any platform. In this paper, we present an interface which uses web services for data collection. It requires interaction between a web service deployed for the purposes of data collection, and the web address where the data is stored. Our interface requires that the web service has pre-knowledge of the address from where the data is to be collected. Also, the data to be accessed must be stored in XML format. Since our interface uses computer-supported interaction on both sides, it eases the task of regular and ongoing data collection. We apply our framework to the Education Management Information System, which collects data from schools spread across the country.
