What will we cover?

• What is GeoSHAPE
• GeoSHAPE Components
  • MapLoom
  • GeoNode
  • GeoServer
  • GeoGig
• Installing GeoSHAPE
• Software Components (RPMs)
• Demo
• Roadmap
• Q&A

Developed Under ROGUE-JCTD Project

• Part of a set of capabilities known as GeoSHAPE
• geoshape.org
• github.com/rogue-jctd
• https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/geoshape

• Goal: streamline collaboration on geospatial data between distributed partners
• Since 'partners' can include different government agencies, organizations, volunteer groups
  • GeoSHAPE had to be free and open source
  • Easy to deploy
• Each partner will have their own instance of GeoSHAPE
  • Can edit and synchronize with other instances
    • Initial funding of GeoGig
  • Fully operational in disconnected mode

GeoSHAPE Components

MapLoom

• Developed to address our challenges with GeoExplorer 
• OpenLayers 3 + Angular + Bootstrap
• We embed it in GeoNode, but can be stand alone
• Bring in layers from local and remote servers
• Supports time dimension
• WGS84 Support (Raster Reprojection)
• MGRS Support
• GeoGIG Integration

GeoNode

Manage Layers, Maps, Users & Groups

github.com/GeoNode/geonode/

GeoNode

• Hides GeoServer's complexity when dealing with layers and users
• Allows you to customize your web application
• Upload / Download Layers
• Save / Load Maps
• Manage Users and profiles
• Manage Groups
• Manage Permissions
• Edit Styles

GeoServer

Serves GIS Vector & Raster data through OGC Standards

github.com/geoserver/geoserver

GeoServer

• Does a lot of the heavy lifting behind the scenes
• Manages data sources
• Supports numerous spatial formats
• Exposes OGC standards for accessing layers

GeoGig

• A data source that focuses on versioning vector data
• De-centralized Version Control System
• Heavily inspired by Git, but it is not Git
• Instead of versioning controlling text files, it versions layers / features
• You can commit, pull, push, branch, merge, revert, clone, shallow clone, sparse clone, and many operation which exist in git 
• Should be used instead of PostGIS only when history matters
  • GeoGig optimized for history
  • PostGIS optimized for performance
• github.com/locationtech/geogig

Arbiter

Mobile application for viewing / collecting data

Arbiter

• Mobile application for viewing / collecting data
• Allows you to easily attach photos to features
• Designed to works in disconnected mode
• It downloads the vector data based on your area of interest
• Uses mbtiles for the basemap
• Native Android UI + Open Layers

Installing GeoSHAPE

• See doc on geoshape.org
• Install git, virtual box, and vagrant
• run vagrant up

Roadmap

• Geogig support high-availability
• PostgreSQL or SQLite backend storage for GeoGig
• Docker Integration
• osgeo-importer
• Arbiter update
• Powerful discovery of layers in maploom
• Ability to bring in data from more remote sources
• Security Updates

Final Thoughts

• We contribute all changes back to each project
• Use can use GeoSHAPE in whole or individual components
• Several companies/organizations have been contributing back
• Currently accepting pull requests ;)
