In the last years, the attention of the public community on electro-magnetic pollution has continuously grown. In this paper we argue that the use of Geographic Information Systems in this domain should be encouraged as a valid support to the monitoring activities related to this phenomenon. In particular, our proposal of a visual environment, the Metaphor GIS Query Language is shown to provide a fruitful combination of GIS technology and visual languages, which have the double advantage of assisting electromagnetism experts in the measurement tasks, and facilitating non-expert users who might be interested in the level of EMF pollution in a given area. |
