The authors have established an eco-tourism self-service system website based on the OpenGIS, whose goal

is to give local residents some guidance and training. It does not need large-scale infrastructure construction, and

the purpose lies in making them obtain some traveling serviceability. Through this website the local residents can

establish communication with the tourists and participate in this industry so as to develop local economy. This

paper carried out the system demand analysis and described the system construction, the function module and the data

flow in detail. The server operating system uses RedHat Linux Enterprise AS5, the client end utilizes mainstream

browser, the database management system employs PostgreSQL 8.0, the spatial data engine applies PostGIS, and the

application server platform uses Tomcat 5.5. The WebGIS platform uses the GeoServer 1.5.3 server, whereas the

GeoTools module is set in. With the Mount Qomolangma nature preservation zone as an example, the system was

conducted smoothly.
