Geodata Packaging Working Group

This is a project of the Public Geospatial Data Committee

While OSGeo can provide guidance as to finding good sources of open and public geodata, it would be good to offer maintained packages of high-quality data and metadata for education and demonstration that can be used by the software projects.

Focus

• Packaging / Quality Control / Metadata Augmentation / Documentation (focus on education, create educational/training data sets such as the GRASS Spearfish)

Participants

• Markus Neteler: Interested in data processing and development of quality measures
• Frank Warmerdam: Interested in processing data into more usable form, and providing foundation hosted or related download options, possibly also geotorrent.org.
• Please add your details!
