The most important activities in a GIS are querying and spatial analysis of georeferenced data providing decision making and problem solving support. Traditional database query languages and tools are inappropriate for GIS purpose, because of their inability to address spatial properties of the real world entities. This paper presents a spatial query and analysis tool with the strong visual context, called GeoQA. It has been developed as an integral component of the GinisNT, object-oriented GIS framework for GIS applications development. GeoQA provides effective, interactive but user-friendly and ease-of-use mechanisms for performing spatial and non-spatial queries, as well as, spatial, thematic and statistic analysis in specific GIS applications developed on the top of GinisNT. 2. GINISNT: A GIS FRAMEWORK GeoQA spatial query and analysis tool is implemented as an integral part of the GinisNT system [7]. GinisNT is an objectoriented GIS framework for the development of scaleable enduser GIS applications. It is based on an object-oriented (OO) data model and OO application development methodology, supported by the specific software components and tools and extensible class library. The GinisNT data model and OO environment defined by GinisNT framework are used at the application level, while the underlying spatial database is actually stored, organised and maintained by the RDBMS. The relational implementation level is completely transparent to the user by existence of GinisNT

However, current achievements in these areas at the level of modeling and design are much behind the technology ones. This paper presents how component-based modeling and design principles can be used as a basis for modeling a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Proposed design approach is basically model-driven, but incorporates several agile development principles and practices that provide its flexibility and agility in today's ever-changing business and IT environments.

Current CBD best practices, concepts, approaches and methods do not provide a full and consistent support for various component concepts, and therefore are not able to provide a full benefit of the CBD paradigm. This paper defines a new approach to components through an Integrated Component- Oriented Framework that provides a comprehensive component-oriented support for enterprise systems development. The framework enables that the same component way of thinking and the same consistent set of technology- independent component concepts can be applied in different aspects of enterprise systems development, from business services to distributed components.
