It was difficult for non-geomatics developers to implement a webmapping application. Indeed, this type of application uses geospatial data that require geomatics skills. For this reason, in order to help non-geomatics developers to set up a webmapping application, we have designed a meta-model that automatically generates a webmapping application using model-driven engineering. The created meta-model is used by non-geomatics developers to explicitly write the concrete syntax specific to the webmapping application using the xtext tool. This concrete syntax is automatically converted into source code using the xtend tool without the intervention of the non-geomatics developers. %K Webmapping %K Model Driven Engineering %K Model Driven Architecture %K Meta-Model %K WebGis %K GIS %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=110974
