Tiivistelmä
The primary purpose of the thesis project was to carry out an action-based study of web services by developing a forestry related web service application for MetINFO.
MetINFO is an information division of the Finnish Forest Research Institute (METLA). It provides various forest-related information services and tools in order to make forest-related information more visible and useful. The goal of the project was to develop a web service application which could be used by Finnish sawmills to upload their roundwood sales data to MetINFO. The uploaded data is used to calculate statistics about roundwood sales in Finland by different forestry centers and price areas.
The development of the project involved various steps. Initially, the requirements of the application were analyzed. Based on the requirements, the application was designed and developed using feature-driven development methodology. As the outcome, fully function-ing web services for uploading roundwood sales data and a web based application for ad-ministering uploaded data were created.
The developed application was tested in a test environment and all the known bugs were fixed. Technical documentation of the application and a user manual were created and the application was deployed in the production environment. Finally, the application was demonstrated to MetINFO and the Finnish sawmills were informed about the service by MetINFO.
