GeoServer Code Sprint 2016

2015-12-20T16:49:41Z

Wiki-Jdeolive: /* Participation */

== Purpose ==

The GeoServer web administration console is built on top of the [https://wicket.apache.org/ Wicket] 1.4.x series,
which is pretty old and unmaintaned. The purpose of the sprint is to update it to Wicket 7.x, the current stable version.

[[File:Wicket-upgrade.png|center|Upgrade from Wicket 1.3 to Wicket 7]]

Due to the large distance between the two releases and the number of backwards incompatible changes accumulated
by Wicket in the years this will require the concerted effort of a handful of developers over a few days, including the
changes to upgrade the code, and the thorough hand testing of the resulting modified interface.

We would like to extend our thanks to the following sponsors:

Gold Sponsors:

=== Organizers ===

* Jody Garnett - Boundless
* Andrea Aime - GeoSolutions

=== Venue and dates ===

The code sprint will be held in Victoria BC to minimize travel costs. Boundless has offered to provide a venue (either the Boundless Victoria offices or a local technology centre).

The date is tentatively set for the week of January 18th.

This date is selected towards of the GeoServer 2.9 release cycle prior to the code freeze in February, keeping resource availability in mind.

=== Accommodation and costs ===

Participants should plan the travel, accommodation and meals.

* Depending on sponsorship level guests to Victoria will be hosted at or billeted with local community.
* At the time of writing accommodation for four guests is available (thanks to Jody Garnett and Martin Davis).

We hope to raise enough financial support to cover overseas travel, and possibly meals.

=== Sponsorship ===

== Sponsorship ==

We have setup the sprint to minimize travel and accommodation costs, and are looking for sponsors primarily to cover residual travel costs.

* OSGeo (pending)
* Boundless
* GeoSolutions

We will reach out to local organizations (BC Government, Refractions, Vivid Solutions) to see if there is interest in sponsorship. If so we expect to drag the developers away from the task at hand and meet the local community (at a social evening or similar).

== Participation ==

Participation can be either in person or remote via IRC/Skype/Hangout (specific tool TBD based on who's participating)

== OSGeo Funding Request ==

The following information is requested by OSGeo Board [[Code_Sprint_Guidelines]]:

=== Basic Information ===

* Audience: 10 people are expected
* Region: Victoria, British Columbia
* Projects: GeoServer
* Length: 5 days
* Venue: Boundless has generously offered their Victoria office for the activity, and offered to rent a local shared office space if necessitated by the number of attendees.

=== Expected budget ===

Costs:

* Attendee Registration: n/a
* Venue: $1250 (at http://forttectoria.ca)
* In-kind: Above Venue
* Cost per attendee (Local): $0
* Cost per attendee (Italy): $1400 CAD (airfare)
* Cost per attendee (US): $900 CAD (airfare)
* Cost per attendee (Calgary, Canada): $400 CAD (airfare)

Sponsorship:

* Third party sponsorship:
* OSGeo sponsorship: $3000 towards travel costs

We would like to briefly acknowledge the difficulty of recording in-kind contributions of resources and staff given the OSGeo template. The bulk of the cost associated with code-sprint participation is reflected in staff availability, often far outstripping airfare and accommodation costs.

* Boundless: 5-8 people
* GeoSolutions: 2-3 people

=== Financials ===

This event is planned to incur a loss, given the short lead up time.

If any profit is amassed from sponsorship it will be returned to the OSGeo foundation.

Benchmarking 2011

2011-03-03T21:25:17Z

Wiki-Jdeolive: /* Potential Participants */

== Basic Premise ==

Following up on [[Benchmarking 2010|last year's exercise]], the performance shoot-out presentation at [[FOSS4G2011]] will test how long each Web mapping server takes to generate a map image, from a common set of spatial data, on a common platform. The data will be served by each Web mapping server through the WMS standard, which will serve exactly the same set of LAYERS. A JMeter load will be run on the testing box to measure various aspects of those layers.

== Communication ==

Coordination/communication is primarily via the Benchmarking mailing list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/benchmarking

Weekly meetings will occur through IRC chat in the #foss4g channel on irc.freenode.net (you can use [http://webchat.freenode.net/ webchat] to connect in browser)

=== Next IRC Meeting ===

* Wed February 23rd, 2011 @ [http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?year=2011&month=02&day=23&hour=15&min=0&sec=0 15:00:00 UTC]
** Provisional Agenda:
*** Create plan for vector (OSM) and raster (DEM) data processing
*** Discuss testing methodology
*** final presentation discussion

=== Previous IRC Meetings ===

== Rules of Engagement (unofficial, copied from 2010) ==

# All parties must contribute any changes that they make to their software for this exercise, back to their community. Note that the changes don't have to be contributed before the conference, just in a reasonable period of time.
# Comparisons will be made of the best available version of the software, be it a formal release or a development version.
# Two tests will be run: one 'baseline' test with the data in its raw format (with spatial indexes), and another 'best effort' test where 'the sky is the limit' for what changes you want to make to the data (change format, generalize, etc)
# Teams must document all steps they did to manipulate the data/server for both the 'baseline' and 'best effort' tests. If a team does not document the steps on this wiki then that team's test results will not be used.
# Data formats to be used will be shapefiles for vectors, and uncompressed geotiffs for rasters.
# WMS output formats to be used will be png8 and png24 where possible

== Documenting Server Details and Differences ==

It is the responsibility of each team to document their setup with regard to data.

Please keep your notes either on a wiki subpage or in svn (or both).

Generally teams keep notes on setup on the wiki while they put stylesheets and scripts in svn.

A good organization for wiki pages is to create a subpage like: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Benchmarking_2011/Mapnik_notes

And create a directory in svn named {servername}/{year} like: http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/foss4g/benchmarking/mapnik/2011

== Datasets ==

== SVN ==

The project files (minus data) are stored in Subversion (http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/foss4g/benchmarking/).

== Requirements: Software, hardware, geodata ==

=== Workshops ===

Workshop classrooms come with native Windows XP computers. Required software will be installed on Windows XP and tested on mid July. Alternatively, an Open Source Virtual Machine can be provided.

{| class="wikitable"
! Room !! Code !! Title !! Software needs
|-
| B5.S101
|| W1
|| Web Mapping with GeoServer
|| You supply the laptops, we supply the software and data.
|-
| B5.S101
|| W8
|| Getting Started With MapServer
|| No additional material is required. Optional: bring your own datasets to load into your web mapping application. Intermediate/advance questions will be accommodated if time permits.
|-
| B5.S201
|| W2
|| gvSIG 1.9 user workshop
|| the workshop will run on the OSGeo LiveDVD so we suppose we don't need hard and soft additional.
|-
| B5.S201
|| W9
|| Quantum GIS and PostGIS: Solving Spatial Problems and Creating Web-Based Analysis Tools
|| "Quantum GIS v1.4.0 Enceladus" or newer, installed on workshop computers or available on the FOSS4G LiveDVD. Please use Windows "Standalone" version, not the "OSGeo4W" installer version. Internet access to the instructor's PostGIS and WMS/WFS server.
|-
| B5.S202
|| W3
|| Setting up an OpenStreetMap rendering toolchain
|| Hardware: One computer per person, plus overhead projector. Standard internet connection. Nothing out of the ordinary. Software: Already installed in the computers: PostGIS, Mapnik, Mapnik support scripts, Apache2 web server, and mod_tile. Computers *must* run Linux in order for Apache+mod_tile to work. Some other workshops may use PostGIS and Apache, so it should be coordinated. PHPPGAdmin would be a plus. Available somewhere in the workshop CDs: OpenLayers, plus some sets of geodata (global shorelines, plus a small excerpt of OpenStreetMap data). Total size of this data should be around or less than 100 MB. The workshop tutor will provide all materials prior to the workshop. All software in the computers should be tested beforehand, so it is desirable to have a disk image or install CD the tutor can try out ahead of time. Atendees should not bring anything special. All the needed software and data should be readily available in the computers, plus a CD (or pendrive, or similar device).
|-
| B5.S202
|| W10
|| FOSS4G routing with pgRouting tools, OpenStreetMap road data and GeoExt
|| -
|-
| C6.S302
|| W4
|| Introduction to PostGIS
|| Windows XP computers.
|-
| C6.S302
|| W11
|| Working with OpenLayers
|| Participants will complete exercises on a PC (any OS) that is running a web server (e.g. Apache). Participants will need to edit text files with an editor and view examples in a browser. The workshop also requires GeoServer and Postgres w/ PostGIS running. We can provide software and data to be installed in advance of the workshop. In previous workshops, GeoServer has been installed and running, PostGIS configured with workshop data, and Apache configured to proxy GeoServer on port 80 and provide an alias to the workshop document root. We can provide documentation on setting all this up and can help if workshop machines are available before the workshop date. So, requirements are - * PostGIS (configured with data) * GeoServer (running on port 8080 or other) * Apache (configured to proxy GeoServer on port 80 and with alias to workshop document root) * Text editor * Web browser (Firefox recommended).
|-
| C6.S306
|| W5
|| Introduction to the Mapbender Geoportal Framwework
|| The workshop will run completely on the Mapbender Portal provided by OSGeo, no software will be installed during the course all that is needed is a web terminal. Attendees who want to work with their own copy of the software should either install it on a server that is available via internet during the workshop or on their own notebook. To the experienced geoportal operator the installation is straight forward, all information can be found on the Mapbender web site http://www.mapbender.org. If you want to install you own copy but are new to either GIS, web technology, mapping, OGC standards or any combination thereof it is recommended to start the installation well in advance to the workshop as it involves a web server, database, PHP, Mapbender internet accessibility. You will get all the help that you need to set up the system and get it to run properly on the http://www.mapbender.org/index.php/Mapbender_Mailing_Lists.
|-
| C6.S306
|| W12
|| GeoNetwork for dummies, or how to setup an SDI in 3 hours
|| None. CD-ROM and instructions will be brought by workshop organizer.
|-
| C6.S308
|| W6
|| Solid Web Mapping with Python
|| Linux or Windows machine with Python 2.5 or 2.6 installed. Linux is preferred.
|-
| C6.S308
|| W13
|| Geospatial for Java
|| Windows, any version of Java, Students will have choice of Eclipse or NetBeans IDE.
|-
| B5.S101
|| W7
|| Practical Introduction to ZOO, the Powerful WPS Platform
|| computer and ZOO-CD (ZOO-Binaries, GDAL/OGR library and dependencies).
|-
| B5.S101
|| W14
|| Practical Introduction to GRASS
|| For the workshop we need: - GRASS (one of the 6.4 series, 6.4.0RC5 is currently available); - the standard North Carolina GRASS demo data set, the "smaller simpler subset (47MB)" (http://grass.osgeo.org/sampledata/north_carolina/nc_basic_spm.tar.gz) is sufficient; - our HTML tutorial; - our PDF file containing the introductory slides for the workshop. The last years we used our own live DVDs, especially tailored for the Conferences (see for example the 2009 DVD here: http://www.ing.unitn.it/~grass/software/FOSS4G2009_GRASS_beginners_DVD.html), but we can provide our tutorial as a Debian and Ubuntu package, so that it can be included in the OSGEO Live DVD. Since this is a beginners' workshop, it is fundamental that GRASS' version in use matches the one used in the workshop material, so that all the details correspond. Therefore, if the OSGEO Live DVD is used we need to know which GRASS version will be included at least a month in advance, to review all the material. No special hardware is required, maps in the dataset are quite small, therefore a fairly modern Pc will do. No network connection is required, unless you want the attendees to download the tutorial and the dataset. It is possible to use attendees' laptop (some of the attendees have used their own Pc last year in Sydney), but we must be reasonably sure they have a working GRASS installation. Again, the GRASS version can be critical. Last year I have helped some of them to setup their machine via email before the workshop. The use of a live DVD on a Pc provided by the organization is probably the best choice for most of the attendees, since they are not required to setup GRASS before the workshop but they can take the DVD home and re-run the workshop. They can also use the DVD as an installer.

ProjectsVM

2010-08-05T14:29:24Z

Wiki-Jdeolive:

The Projects VM is a Debian virtual machine minimally administered by [[SAC]], hosted on [[Infrastructure_Transition_Plan_2010#New_Hardware|osgeo4]] at OSU OSL and used for hosting project web sites and some related services.

The VM is reachable by ssh at projects.osgeo.osuosl.org. Anyone in the https://www.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/auth/ldap_shell.py has ssh access, and anyone in this group can add new people via the link. Sudo access can be provided by existing sudoer's by adding folks to the sudoers group in /etc/group, though it is normal practice to try and only extend sudo access to one user per project.

This VM hosts several '''project critical resources''' (projects web sites primarily). It is a shared environment and it is important that folks making changes on the system be aware of the impact they might have on other hosted services. Apache changes should be made carefully and needfully.

Place to reach SAC members in case of troubles or quick questions:
* irc://irc.freenode.org#osgeo
* irc://irc.freenode.org#telascience
* If you don't have an IRC client, you can use the [http://irc.telascience.org/cgi-bin/telascience-irc.cgi IRC Web browser interface] or [http://webchat.freenode.net/ Freenode's Webchat] (if you are behind a restrictive firewall)

New York Code Sprint 2010

2010-02-17T18:40:03Z

Wiki-Jdeolive: /* Participation */

[[Image:i_osgeo_ny.png|right]]

== Purpose ==

Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger problems (as done last year at the [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009]]). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, Mapserver, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.

We have started a [[New York Code Sprint 2010 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.

== Timing ==

Dates: February 20 to 23, 2010.

Duration: Four days (Saturday to Tuesday) from approximately 9am-4pm

== Venue ==

The Open Planning Project and OpenGeo will be hosting the event this year, in a penthouse event room ([http://www.flickr.com/photos/philaestheta/3922525728/in/set-72157622375114194/ pic1], [http://www.flickr.com/photos/92995391@N00/4081335110/ pic2], [http://www.flickr.com/photos/92995391@N00/4080572085/ pic3], [http://www.flickr.com/photos/92995391@N00/4080570151/ pic4]) on the top floor of their offices ([http://maps.google.com/maps?q=148+Lafayette+Street+new+york Map]), providing us a beautiful space and free internet access for the duration.

148 Lafayette Street 
New York, New York 
10013, USA 
Telephone: 212.796.4220 

=== Weekend Access ===

Access on the weekend will be complicated due to the main lobby being locked. If you leave the venue, remember to '''bring your cellphone''' so you can call up to get let back in. '''Call or text Paul @ 1-250-885-0632''' if you find yourself locked out.

== Sponsors ==

We will again be looking for sponsors ($750) to support food and fun for the sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four productive days. Each $750 sponsorship will be put towards lunch and dinner costs for the sprinters, and potentially bringing in sprinters who might otherwise be unable to attend.

To sponsor, please contact Paul Ramsey (pramsey at cleverelephant dot ca) directly.

Wiki-Jdeolive: /* Port Usage */

Back to [[FOSS4G2008]]...

= Introduction =

Workshop and Lab presenters were asked when they submitted their proposal to provide an indication of their software requirements for the PC's supplied at the venues. this list is a synthesis of the requirements and presnet the various options for working with non-Windows based presentations.

Presenters are asked to upload any VMWare images, other software and data to the ftp server [xyz] by the 15th September or preferably earlier. Login details will be communicated to you directly. Presentations can also be uploaded there.

The issue of doing printing of Workshop/Lab paper materials locally has been raised and will be addressed - arrangements to follow.

Discussion on this page should be done on the workshops list (conference-workshops@osgeo.org) at [http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/conference-workshops http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/conference-workshops]

FOSS4G2007 IntegrationShowcase

2007-09-13T18:52:27Z

Wiki-Jdeolive: /* Data */

Back to [[FOSS4G2007]]...

= Introduction =

The Integration Showcase will highlight the open source spirit of "coopetition" (cooperative competition) amongst the sponsors and exhibitors of the FOSS4G2007 conference.

In order to ensure everything works "as planned" on the show floor, the Integration Showcase will be set up and running live on the Internet well in advance of the conference. As each Integration Showcase participant goes "live" with their component, they must register it on this page, so that other participants can hook it into their own demonstrations. Low-level components, such as databases and mapping services, must go live first.

The coordinator for the Integration Showcase is '''[[User:Jdeolive|Justin Deoliveira]]''', of the Open Planning Project. He will be contacting exhibitors and sponsors to make them aware of the showcase and how to participate.

= Status =
* 2007/07/10 Refractions Research PostGIS database Internet connection enabled
* 2007/07/09 Canadian NTDB vector data loaded into PostGIS database

= Data =

The goal for this conference is to utilize only publicly available geodata for the Integration Showcase.

Initiated by the OSgeo [[Public_Geospatial_Data_Committee|Public Geospatial Data Committee]], there is an effort underway to obtain copies of public datasets that are 'local' to Victoria, B.C. (the FOSS4G2007 conference location), and to load that data onto the server that will be used for the Integration Showcase.

The tracking of the public datasets is being done via the [[Canadian_Geodata|Canadian Geodata]] wiki page.

FOSS4G2007 IntegrationShowcase

2007-08-24T21:21:20Z

Wiki-Jdeolive: /* Tables */

Back to [[FOSS4G2007]]...

= Introduction =

The Integration Showcase will highlight the open source spirit of "coopetition" (cooperative competition) amongst the sponsors and exhibitors of the FOSS4G2007 conference.

In order to ensure everything works "as planned" on the show floor, the Integration Showcase will be set up and running live on the Internet well in advance of the conference. As each Integration Showcase participant goes "live" with their component, they must register it on this page, so that other participants can hook it into their own demonstrations. Low-level components, such as databases and mapping services, must go live first.

The coordinator for the Integration Showcase is '''[[User:Jdeolive|Justin Deoliveira]]''', of the Open Planning Project. He will be contacting exhibitors and sponsors to make them aware of the showcase and how to participate.

= Status =
* 2007/07/10 Refractions Research PostGIS database Internet connection enabled
* 2007/07/09 Canadian NTDB vector data loaded into PostGIS database

= Data =

The goal for this conference is to utilize only publicly available geodata for the Integration Showcase.

Initiated by the OSgeo [[Public_Geospatial_Data_Committee|Public Geospatial Data Committee]], there is an effort underway to obtain copies of public datasets that are 'local' to Victoria, B.C. (the FOSS4G2007 conference location), and to load that data onto the server that will be used for the Integration Showcase.

The tracking of the public datasets is being done via the [[Canadian_Geodata|Canadian Geodata]] wiki page.

= General Information =

== Pre-Conference communication ==
'''All Instructors are expected to join the [http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/foss4g2007-workshops FOSS4G2007-Workshops] mailing list.'''

For Workshops or Labs with multiple Instructors, all the Instructors should join the mailing list, even if one of the Instructors is handling all the pre-conference organizing for the group.

If you are an Instructor, and have any questions that are not answered by this page, please send an email to the [http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/foss4g2007-workshops FOSS4G2007-Workshops] mailing list.

If you need to communicate with the FOSS4G 2007 Workshop Committee, please send an email to the [http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/foss4g2007-workshops FOSS4G2007-Workshops] mailing list.

As this page gets updated, periodic reminders may be sent to the [http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/foss4g2007-workshops FOSS4G2007-Workshops] mailing list.

== Communication during the conference ==
The package you receive when you arrive at the conference will contain information explaining who to contact, and how, if you have any questions or need any assistance during the conference.

== FOSS4G 2007 FTP server ==
Workshop/Lab Instructors who need to provide files to the Workshop Committee prior to the conference may do so via the use of the FOSS4G 2007 FTP server.

You will need to use the FTP server if:
* you want the conference organizers to print Classroom Material for you
* you want to provide data that will be used for your Workshop/Lab
* you want to provide an image of a LiveCD/DVD for testing
* you want to use a Virtual Machine for your Workshop/Lab
* you want to provide information about Application and Utility software installation/configuration

All Instructors have been sent an email with the information about how to connect to the FTP server.

# Classroom Material for printing
#* Upload your Microsoft Word document, Open Office document, or PDF document to the ''/printing/'' folder for your Workshop/Lab.
# Data
#* Upload your data files to the ''/data/'' folder for your Workshop/Lab.
#* If no README file is supplied, the files will be loaded onto the classroom PCs under the ''C:\FOSS4G07\'' folder for your Workshop/Lab. For example, for Lab-01, if you upload a file ''/Lab-01/data/lab1files.zip'' it will end up as ''C:\FOSS4G07\Lab-01\lab1files.zip''
#* If you need your files loaded onto the PCs with a specific directory structure, use that directory structure for the files you upload to the FTP server
#* If your data files need anything done to them other than being placed onto the classroom PCs, include a plain text README file in your ''/data/'' folder with specific instructions as to what needs to be done. For example, if you have provided a ZIP file containing a dump of database tables, we will load that data into your own database instance, provided you supply us with a README file containing the required database information, such as the database name, login ID, etc.
# LiveCD/DVD image
#* If you want us to test your LiveCD/DVD, upload an image of it to the ''/software/'' folder for your Workshop/Lab.
#* If no README file is supplied, the testing will consist of burning the image to a CD/DVD, and booting that CD/DVD in one of the classroom PCs.
#* If you would like any additional testing done, include a plain text README file in your ''/software/'' folder with specific instructions as to what needs to be done.
# Virtual Machine
#* If you are going to use a Virtual Machine, upload it to the ''/software/'' folder for your Workshop/Lab.
#* If no README file is supplied, the testing of your Virtual Machine will consist of loading the Virtual Machine in VMWare Player on one of the classroom PCs, and booting it.
#* If you would like any additional testing done, include a plain text README file in your ''/software/'' folder with specific instructions as to what needs to be done.
# Application and Utility Software
#* If you are suppling information about software installation and/or configuration, upload a plain text README file in your ''/software/'' folder with specific instructions as to what needs to be done.
#* Use a separate file for each piece of software.
#* Include the name of the software as part of the README file name. For example, if your Workshop/Lab uses FileZilla, and you would like a specific FTP server added to it's configuration once installed, you would create a file called README-FileZilla, add to it information on the hostname, port, server type, logon information, etc., and then upload that file. If you also had some requirements for how FileZilla is installed, you would add them to the same file.

== Classroom Materials ==
Materials are things that you may need to hand out in your Workshop or Lab, such as printed handouts, workbooks, quizzes, CDROM, etc. We ask that you do not hand out business cards, however, attendees are free to ask you for your business card.
# Bringing your own materials
#* you may bring your own materials to hand out in your Workshop/Lab
#* you may bring those materials to the Registration desk when you arrive at the conference, and we will store them and deliver them to your classroom for your Workshop or Lab
# Having your materials delivered prior to the conference
#* you may arrange to have your materials delivered to Victoria ahead of your arrival
#* the preferred method would be for you to make such arrangements yourself (e.g. have the materials delivered to your hotel)
#* we can put you in touch with a company that the conference is using, who can assist you with making shipping arrangements
# Having your printed materials printed by the conference organizers
#* '''DEADLINE:''' September 7, 2007
#* the conference committee will provide the option of printing your printed Workshop/Lab materials
#* printed materials need to be formated for printing on 8.5"x11" paper
#* printed materials must be supplied using one of the following formats: Microsoft Word document, Open Office document, PDF document
#* information about how to get the materials to the conference organizers will be available in the near future
# Non-printed materials
#* the conference organizers will not be providing services such as CDROM duplication
#* if you need something such as a copy of a LiveCD/DVD for each PC in your classroom:
#** you can bring those copies with you
#** as indicated above, you can ship them ahead of time
#** you can make the copies once you arrive in Victoria, however, you will be 'on your own' as far as getting this done. The conference organizers are not providing media, or PCs for duplication use(conference PCs may have only CDROM/DVDROM drives). You can purchase media at local stores, and use your own equipment to do the duplication.

== Data ==
'''Instructors will not be able to load data for their Workshops/Labs onto the classroom PCs during the conference'''.

Attendees in the Workshops/Labs will be able to create and download files during their Workshop/Lab. See the ''Classroom PCs Configuration, Other'' section for more information.

If you have any data that you will need for your Workshop/Lab, you must provide it to the conference organizers prior to the conference. You provide your data by uploading it to the FOSS4G 2007 FTP server. See the ''FOSS4G 2007 FTP server'' section for more information.

'''DEADLINE:''' the deadline for providing your data is Monday August 27, 2007.

We had previously told you that there would be a server at the conference that would be hosting some Canadian Geodata, and that you would have access to that server for use in your Workshops/Labs. Unfortunately, while the server will still be used for the Integration Showcase, access for Workshops/Labs will not be possible, due to performance concerns.

If you need to have some data available on the PCs for your Workshop/Lab (regardless of whether it is Canadian data or from some other sources) here is what you need to do:
# Acquire the data
#* If you want to use some of the Canadian Geodata, the [[Canadian_Geodata|Canadian Geodata]] wiki page has links you can use to download the free Canadian data
# Process the data
#* If needed, "massage" the data as needed for your Workshop/Lab. For example, if you have a raster image, and for use with Mapserver it needs to be tiled, you will need to do that yourself.
# Package the data
#* Gather together the data into a format, or formats, that you can use to share the data with the Workshop Committee. For example, export database tables, combine files together into ZIP files or tarballs, etc.
# Upload the data
#* Using SFTP, upload your data to our FTP server. See the ''FOSS4G 2007 FTP server'' section for more information.

== Classroom PCs Configuration ==
The hardware configurations shown below are subject to change.

=== Software ===
The majority of the PCs used for the classrooms are being rented, with the rest being on loan from the City of Nanaimo. The PCs will be prepared by installing and configuring various software onto a small number of 'master PCs'. Those 'master PCs' will then be "cloned" to create the full complement of classroom PCs. The timetable for preparing the classroom PCs will cause there to be certain deadlines, such as a deadline for when the conference organizers must have data that you will need for your Workshop/Lab. As soon as the timetable is finalized, any such deadlines will be announced on the [http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/foss4g2007-workshops FOSS4G2007-Workshops] mailing list.
==== Operating System ====
* All PCs will have Windows XP installed, with the latest service pack and patches (as of mid-September)
* LiveCD
** Instructors who wish to use a LiveCD for their Workshop/Lab must provide the LiveCD
** If you want your LiveCD tested on a classroom PC, the '''DEADLINE''' for providing your LiveCD image to the Workshop Committee is Friday August 31, 2007. See the ''FOSS4G2007 FTP server'' section for more information.
* LiveDVD
** There will be limited availability of classroom PCs that have a DVD drive
** '''DEADLINE:''' If you plan to use a LiveDVD, you must let the Workshop Committee know by August 6, 2007

** If you want your LiveDVD tested on a classroom PC, the '''DEADLINE''' for providing your LiveDVD image to the Workshop Committee is Friday August 31, 2007. See the ''FOSS4G2007 FTP server'' section for more information.
* Virtual Machines
** Most Workshops/Labs will be using either Windows XP or booting from a LiveCD/DVD
** If neither of those options is suitable for your Workshop/Lab, you may use a Virtual Machine
*** '''DEADLINE:''' If you wish to use a Virtual Machine, you must let the Workshop Committee know by August 6, 2007
*** '''DEADLINE:''' You must upload your Virtual Machine to the FTP server by Friday August 31, 2007. See the ''FOSS4G2007 FTP server'' section for more information.

==== Application and Utility Software ====
This section applies to the software that will be installed under Windows XP.

If your Workshop/Lab deals with software installation, it is expected that will be explained by the Instructor (e.g. via slides), and will '''not''' involve actual installation of the software.

The English-language version of software will be installed.

Web Browsers will have their homepage set to [http://www.foss4g2007.org/ http://www.foss4g2007.org/]

If there is any software that is needed for your Workshop/Lab that is not listed below, add it to the list, including a version number, and a link to where it can be downloaded

# For each piece of software in the list that you require for your Workshop/Lab, you ''' must edit this page''' and add your Workshop/Lab "ID number" to the line below the software. Software which is not identified as being required for any Workshops/Labs will not be installed.
#* '''DEADLINE:''' the deadline for updating the software list with your Workshop/Lab "ID number" is August 24, 2007.
#* use "Wnn" for Workshops (e.g. W01,W02,W10) and "Lnn" for Labs (e.g. L01,L02,L10)
#* If the software doesn't list a specific version number, or only a major version number is shown:
#** if a version number is not listed, or only a major version number is shown, the version that is installed will be the latest non-beta release that is available when the 'master PCs' are being built
#** if you require a specific version for your Workshop/Lab add the specific version number after the software's name, and add a link to where it can be downloaded
#** If the software has a version number listed, and it is different than the version that is required for your Workshop/Lab, then please send an email to the [http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/foss4g2007-workshops FOSS4G2007-Workshops] mailing list so that you and the other Instructors who need that software can resolve what version will be loaded onto the 'master PCs'
# The Workshop Committee needs your help in making sure that the software is installed and configured as needed for your Workshops/Labs
#* '''DEADLINE:''' the deadline for supplying us with any specific information about the software installation and/or configuration for software that is required for your Workshop/Lab is August 24, 2007.
#* While we will be installing all the required Application and Utility Software that is listed below, make the assumption that we know nothing about the software.
#* If there are specific options or settings that need to be made during the software's installation, we need to know what you want.
#* If there are specific instructions as to how to configure the software once it is installed, we need to know what you want.
#* The way you tell us what you want is to create a plain text README file for each piece of software that you need to provide information for, and upload those files to the ''/software/'' folder under your Workshop/Lab's folder on the FTP server. See the ''FOSS4G2007 FTP server'' section for more information.

=== Other ===
* Every PC will have a ''C:\FOSS4G07'' folder, and under that will be one folder for each Workshop and Lab. For example, for Lab-01, ''C:\FOSS4G07\LAB-01''. This is the location you should use for any files that the attendees will be creating/downloading during your Workshop / Lab.
* If using a webserver on the PC, configure it to have it's root directory under your Workshop/Lab's main folder (e.g. C:\FOSS4G07\LAB-01\webroot\).
* The Default Input Language, and installed Keyboard, will be English (United States)
* The Windows XP userid will be the same on all PCs, and will have Administrator access
* Most (perhaps all) of the classroom PCs will have CDROM or DVDROM drives, so attendees will not be able to burn copies of Workshop/Lab materials. If your students should have such material, you will have to arrange to provide it as a handout, or make it available for download from the Internet.
* Some Workshop/Lab Instructors may make some of their classroom material available via a handout, or via the Internet, including packaged with software. The conference organizers will not be supplying a CD/DVD of the software that is loaded onto the classroom PCs.

FOSS4G2007 IntegrationShowcase

2007-08-06T19:31:44Z

Wiki-Jdeolive: /* Tables */

Back to [[FOSS4G2007]]...

= Introduction =

The Integration Showcase will highlight the open source spirit of "coopetition" (cooperative competition) amongst the sponsors and exhibitors of the FOSS4G2007 conference.

In order to ensure everything works "as planned" on the show floor, the Integration Showcase will be set up and running live on the Internet well in advance of the conference. As each Integration Showcase participant goes "live" with their component, they must register it on this page, so that other participants can hook it into their own demonstrations. Low-level components, such as databases and mapping services, must go live first.

The coordinator for the Integration Showcase is '''[[User:Jdeolive|Justin Deoliveira]]''', of the Open Planning Project. He will be contacting exhibitors and sponsors to make them aware of the showcase and how to participate.

= Status =
* 2007/07/10 Refractions Research PostGIS database Internet connection enabled
* 2007/07/09 Canadian NTDB vector data loaded into PostGIS database

= Data =

The goal for this conference is to utilize only publicly available geodata for the Integration Showcase.

Initiated by the OSgeo [[Public_Geospatial_Data_Committee|Public Geospatial Data Committee]], there is an effort underway to obtain copies of public datasets that are 'local' to Victoria, B.C. (the FOSS4G2007 conference location), and to load that data onto the server that will be used for the integration showcase. An added benefit of having the Integration Showcase server available on the Internet ahead of the conference, and available locally during the conference, is that presenters of Workshops and Labs can make use of the Integration Showcase data and services for their conference contributions.

The tracking of the public datasets is being done via the [[Canadian_Geodata|Canadian Geodata]] wiki page.

The goal for this conference is to utilize only publicly available geodata for the Integration Showcase.

(the FOSS4G2007 conference location), and to load that data onto the server that will be used for the integration showcase. An added benefit of having the Integration Showcase server available on the Internet ahead of the conference, and available locally during the conference, is that presenters of Workshops and Labs can make use of the Integration Showcase data and services for their conference contributions.

Wiki-Jdeolive:

Back to [[FOSS4G2007]]...

= Introduction =

For the [http://www.foss4g2007.org/ FOSS4G2007 conference] in Victoria, BC, Canada (September 24-27, 2007) the OSGeo [[Public Geospatial Data Committee]] would like to pull together a catalog of local data from the area around
Victoria so that there would be a readily available pool of services and
local datasets for attendees and presenters to use during the
conference. The hope is that this will bring attention to the efforts being
made by the [[Public Geospatial Data Committee]] committee. Benefits to the conference would be fast
access to services (if we were to host them somewhere locally during the
conference), an increased local feel, and a resource so that we could see
different applications all working with the same data.

This public data will be available for use by the [[FOSS4G2007_IntegrationShowcase|FOSS4G2007 Integration Showcase]].

= Data Custodians =

== Government ==

=== Federal ===
:The Canadian Federal Government, often in partnership with Provincial governments, makes various types of data available for free, from various sources.

=== Provincial ===
:The British Columbia Provincial Government makes some of it's data publicly available for free.

=== Local ===
:Local governments, such as the City of Victoria, or the Capital Region District may have some data available for free.

== Commercial ==
:Various companies and organizations, whether they are Canadian or not, may have data that they would be willing to provide for free.

= DataSets =

== Requested Datasets ==
If there is a particular Canadian dataset that you would like to see be available at FOSS4G2007, add your request to this section.
Please include the following information:
* Dataset information:
** dataset name
** link to dataset information (e.g. metadata)
** link to dataset location (if publicly available)
* Your information:
** your name (and optionally organization), and a way to contact you
** your role in the FOSS4G2007 conference (e.g. attendee, workshop/lab instructor, sponsor, etc.)
** why you are requesting the dataset

== Dataset Sources ==
While the authoritative source for a dataset is the dataset's custodian, for FOSS4G2007 the goal is to have copies of datasets, or partial datasets, on local servers at the conference. To accomplish that, local people will have to do the work of obtaining those copies and loading them onto the local servers.

If you can help with this by providing the conference organizers with a copy of all or part of one or more of the Requested Datasets, add your information to the section below.

* [[User:Dpatton|Dave Patton]], Victoria, BC
** I have this data locally (i.e. it has already been downloaded), and will provide it via a USB drive
** The data is available "as is", in the format provided for the downloads. For example, this often means the data is in ZIP files, with one ZIP file per NTS tile.
** The total space for the data listed below is 66.1GB

FOSS4G2007 IntegrationShowcase

2007-07-10T05:36:56Z

Wiki-Jdeolive:

Back to [[FOSS4G2007]]...

= Introduction =

The integration showcase will highlight the open source spirit of "coopetition" (cooperative competition) amongst the sponsors and exhibitors.

In order to ensure everything works "as planned" on the show floor, the integration showcase will be set up and running live on the internet well in advance of the conference. As each showcase participant goes "live" with their component, they must register it on this page, so that other participants can hook it into their own demonstrations. Low-level components, such as databases and mapping services, must go live first.

The coordinator for the showcase will be '''Justin Deoliveira''', of the Open Planning Project. He will be contacting exhibitors and sponsors to make them aware of the showcase and how to participate.

= Components =

== Data ==

The goal for this conference is to utilize only publicly available geodata.

Initiated by the OSgeo [[Public_Geospatial_Data_Committee|Public Geospatial Data Committee]], there is an effort underway to obtain copies of "local" (to Victoria, B.C.) public datasets, and to load that data onto the server that will be used for the integration showcase. An added benefit of having the integration showcase server available on the Internet ahead of the conference, and available locally during the conference, is that presenters of Workshops and Labs can make use of the same data and services for their conference contributions.

The tracking of the public datasets is being done via the [[Canadian_Geodata|Canadian Geodata]] wiki page.

== PostGIS Database : Refractions Research ==

A PostGIS database containing the vector data will be put online by [http://www.refractions.net Refractions Research] as soon as possible, and access provided to the integration showcase participants.

FOSS4G2007 IntegrationShowcase

2007-07-10T04:15:30Z

Wiki-Jdeolive:

Back to [[FOSS4G2007]]...

= Introduction =

The integration showcase will highlight the open source spirit of "coopetition" (cooperative competition) amongst the sponsors and exhibitors.

In order to ensure everything works "as planned" on the show floor, the integration showcase will be set up and running live on the internet well in advance of the conference. As each showcase participant goes "live" with their component, they must register it on this page, so that other participants can hook it into their own demonstrations. Low-level components, such as databases and mapping services, must go live first.

The coordinator for the showcase will be '''Justin Deoliveira''', of the Open Planning Project. He will be contacting exhibitors and sponsors to make them aware of the showcase and how to participate.

= Components =

== Data ==

The goal for this conference is to utilize only publicly available geodata.

Initiated by the OSgeo [[Public_Geospatial_Data_Committee|Public Geospatial Data Committee]], there is an effort underway to obtain copies of "local" (to Victoria, B.C.) public datasets, and to load that data onto the server that will be used for the integration showcase. An added benefit of having the integration showcase server available on the Internet ahead of the conference, and available locally during the conference, is that presenters of Workshops and Labs can make use of the same data and services for their conference contributions.

The tracking of the public datasets is being done via the [[Canadian_Geodata|Canadian Geodata]] wiki page.

== PostGIS Database : Refractions Research ==

A PostGIS database containing the vector data will be put online by [http://www.refractions.net Refractions Research] as soon as possible, and access provided to the integration showcase participants.

| I come from the Java side of the OSGeo fence, getting my start in GeoServer, where I was lead developer for a couple years, and GeoTools, where I still serve on the PMC. My time is made possible by [http://topp.openplans.org The Open Planning Project (TOPP)], a great non-profit in New York that has been the lead supporter of GeoServer for years now. I spent the last year in Zambia on a Fulbright Scholarship, looking at the potential for open source software to help implement spatial data infrastructures in developing countries. It was a bit of a failure, but I learned a ton, and I see a lot of potential for open source in developing countries, towards truly open spatial data infrastructures. I'm back at TOPP, in a new role as VP of Strategic Development, helping to grow the organization, and figuring out how to make our geospatial stuff self sustaining. Once that's rolling, I hope to reinvest extra revenue in to figuring out and building a truly open geospatial web. And just like apache and linux are the bedrock that the World Wide Web rests on, so too do I believe that the geospatial web necessarily must be built on a foundation of OS Geo software. My continuing thoughts on all of this can be found at http://cholmes.wordpress.com

| A physicist/geophysicist/geological engineer who has used GRASS since 1987, and on the GRASS Interagency Steering Committee for the original public-domain package. I wrote the Linux Mini-HOWTO on GRASS-GIS (which is now woefully out of date); and taught short courses in scientific (as opposed to cartographic) GIS since 1980. In 1994 I moved my teaching to the Web, developing the CyberInstitute Short-Course on GIS. Currently, I'm at UN ESCAP. Open-Source is a great capacity- building environment for software communities worldwide. In developing countries, rather than being stuck merely teaching people to cut and paste stuff within a proprietary office suite, you can be part of the full development team, customizing the software to your community's needs, helping your country to have its own software development community - and hopefully making a satisfying living in the process.

| I've initiated the development of the GeoNetwork opensource Spatial Data Catalog software and its embedded InterMap opensource Map Viewer. I hope to contribute possitively to the creation of a comprehensive, FOSS based toolkit for Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) that help people share and use geospatial data and information in an easy and cost effective way. I focus especially on the data sharing within the United Nations system and in countries under development. I promote free and open source software as an excellent option for more sustainable development in these countries, proving it works by applying and further developing it in my day to day work.
