摘要

Cloud computing is an emerging computing technology that enter many fields due to its benefits; which are the high speed in processing as it depends on parallel computing, high storage capacity, and high speed of data transfer. In GIS, when dealing with raster data, the main obstacles are the data size- a characteristic of raster data- and the need for long processing time. By benefiting of Cloud computing, GIS raster data model used easily without worrying about its obstacles. This paper highlights the recent researches that relates the integration of GIS and private Cloud computing model through studying the published papers related to this area. Our review effort led to that the cloud computing service model in all studies was Platform as a Service (PaaS), studies conducted are in its preliminary stages, and these studies had different point of interest; storage - processing - an attempt to develop a Software as a Service (SaaS) for civil engineering sector.
