Geodata Homepage Draft
Revision as of 20:24, 29 March 2006 by Wiki-JoWalsh (talk | contribs) (filling in the blanks a little, but still a sketch)
https://geodata.osgeo.org/ has a very basic holding page right now.
This is a planning space for what the group in the Public Geospatial Data Project would like to see on its website.
Questions to consider:
- Who the audience is
- Experts who know what they're looking for
- Novices who would like some guidance
- People new to the domain who need very basic explanations of what's being provided.
How we get a website off the ground easily, and how we plan for geodata search services in the future, can feed very usefully into the Infrastructure Working Group.
