Key Concepts • GIS • Geospatial Data • Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
What is GeoNode? A new approach to spatial data infrastructure focused around users and collaboration Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
Example: GeoNode for DRM Data Collection Risk Modeling Adaptation & Mitigation GeoNode Climate Impact Modeling Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
Why GeoNode? GeoData: It is out there… somewhere ?? Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
Why GeoNode? GeoData GeoNode Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
GeoNode Features Makes publishing easy • Upload data through the web • Edit metadata in the same place • Restrict access if you need to Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
GeoNode Features Makes publishing useful • Convert to many output formats – Google Earth works immediately after upload • Build maps combining uploadedlayers - Link, embed, download • Style layers in context Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
GeoNode Features Collect metadata • Provided through browser editor • Associated with users • What maps is a layer in? • What tags do other users add? Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
Data Search Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
View and Explore Data Metadata and the actual data in the same place and maintained through one easy-to-use interface. Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
Upload Data Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
Use Case Two GIS Analysts, both in the same organization Finally! Finished that forests dataset I really need a forests dataset… Analyst A Analyst B Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
Use Case GeoNode allows Analyst B to easily share the forests dataset with Analyst A – even if they don’t know each other This allows for improved efficiency, and higher quality results Galen Evans, gevans@worldbank.org LCSSD BBL: GeoNode – 10/20/2010
