Scope
Software used
We move to install and maintain a stable version of a basic SDI stack consisting of:
- PostgreSQL as database
- PostGIS as spatial extension
- MapServer as WMS (and WFS)
- GeoServer as WFS-T (and WMS)
- Mapbender and MapBuilder as WMS and WFS-T Client
- GRASS GIS (via ssh, PHP, SWIG)
Applications and Demos
- MapServer automatically brings some HTML demos that just need to get set up
- GeoServer packages with MapBuilder and some demo data demo data should be moved into the PostgreSQL database
- some Open/Free data (vmap0 and postal code polygons in Germany)
- Mapbender brings in a hundred maintained OGC service URL
- WMS service meta data (cap url) are added as records/features to both WFS and WMS services
- Each WMS/WFS is a rectangle (corresponding bbox) to serve as source for discovery and harvesting (delivery for the Public Geospatial Data Committee
- MapServer WMS getFeatureInfo request returns Capabilities URL and description (meta data)
- GeoServer WFS getFeature request returns a GML with the bbox and meta data.
- enhanced with a Wiki page adding some human readable discussion for each service.
OSGeo Member Location Service
Everybody who entered a coordinate to All Members could be added to the above WMS/WFS-T infrastructure. Members could locate each other, show their current position (Gary as a multipolygon), etc. using MapServer map and GeoServer WFS-T and editing with Mapbender and MapBuilder. Some privacy should be added for those who do not want to appear in the map by allowing each registered user to edit exactly their own position and their visibility. Only needs an LDAP a certificate and some glue.
