A FLOREON+ (FLOods REcognition on the Net) system for floods prediction and inundation areas computation has been developed to help with an operative disaster management and decision support. This article presents automated process of inundation areas computation based on open standards, unified process description and standardized internal component communication. It describes a case study and experimental use of business process description language such as BPEL in geoinformatic environment. The system has been designed based on a service- oriented architecture (SOA). It contains a set of independent web services, orchestrated by business process interpreter application. External access to the process is clearly standardized implementing OGC WMS/WPS specifications, as well as communication between web services.
