Juego de datos

Volver al índice
__NOTOC__
 Se trata en esta sección de completar un juego de datos apto para ser
 utilizado como base en las explicaciones del libro.
 Los datos deben ser libres, y tal vez no estaría mal que fueran de una 
 zona hispanohablante.
==Spearfish==
Se trata del juego de datos que se utiliza en GRASS desde hace mucho. Casi todos los HOWTO y libros se basan su este set disponible aquí:
* http://grass.itc.it/download/data6.php
el formato es GRASS DB pero no seria difícil transformarlos en formatos mas accesibles para quien no pueda utilizar GRASS.
Cabe destacar que las últimas versiones de Quantum Gis pueden lidiar con las bases de datos de GRASS.
==OSGeo Data Repository==
En este wiki, en Geodata Repository hay una recopilación de datos libres como VMap, SRTM, etc. que podrían servir de partida para muchas partes del libro. Tal vez ninguno cubra todas las partes del libro pero tal vez entre varios juegos se pueda conseguir cubrir los contenidos.
==freegis==
En freegis también hay un catálogo de juegos de datos libres que es probable que coincida con los de la sección anterior.
==Otros==
Enlaces a juegos de datos más o menos dispersos:
* En la web del proyecto PostLBS hay una capa con el callejero de una región de Japón para hacer pruebas de redes (unos 200000 registros). Es probable que se pueda conseguir más cartografía de Japón de este estilo.
==geoNetwork==
En geoNetwork catalog de FAO hay muchas referencias a datos de todo el mundo. Hay licencias de todos tipos y muchas tal vez no permiten un uso libero. Pero otras si.
== Institut Cartogràfic de Catalunya ==
* Página de geoservicios
* Descarga de productos digitales
== Datos del Departamento de Medio Ambiente de la Generalitat de Catalunya ==
* en formato shapefile
* en formato de MiraMon
==OpenStreetMap==
OpenStreetMap publica todos sus datos (a mediados del 2007, unos 30 millones de puntos) semanalmente en http://planet.openstreetmap.org, o instantáneamente a través de una API propia, y existen herramientas de conversión. Los datos están bajo licencia Creative Commons atribución-compartir igual, lo que significa que se puede hacer con ellos lo que se quiera, siempre que se diga que los datos vienen de OSM, y que si se distribuyen copias o modificaciones, se permita la copia bajo las mismas condiciones.
==Nota==
En varios lados de Europa se esta empezando a pensar de producir juegos de datos libres.
Es una lástima, pero no hay fechas claras de publicación y quien será el primero a publicar no se puede saber.
Cruzar los dedos...

Fairly new to OS GIS but with my background in GIS, remote sensing and environmental sciences (geography, tourism, forestry, bioenergy) I find it fascinating and want to try using the open source applications and data in practice for my work. 
Currently working on a project BEn "Biomass Energy Register" , which uses OS GIS technology and data to produce biomass potential maps and signposting tool for bioenergy projects in 4 European regions.

Kids GIS Portal

= Project Mission =
The mission is to provide an intuitive environmental geospatial portal for kids of all ages, based on open source software, open exchange formats and industry standard data models such as ArcHydro and the Pacific Northwest Hydro framework. 
= Project Concept =
Kid’s GIS Open Source Environmental Portal is an exciting new project under development by GIS professionals from around the State of Oregon. By encouraging collaboration among engineers, surveyors, scientists, faculty and students the project team aims to provide a productive and harmonious web-based learning environment for kids. Based on powerful GIS tools and standardized environmental data structures, the Kid’s GIS portal is being designed to engage kids and help develop interests in math and earth sciences. 
Important measures of the program’s success include:
Free access (developed using non-proprietary software and data structures)
Fun and intuitive interface (much like Google Earth)
Ability to easily share information between schools, universities and public organizations
Ability to use the application on any computer
Prolific use
The team aims to provide an enduring program to educate and enable future generations to identify, monitor, preserve and restore natural habitat along surface waterways. If successful, core project components will support environmental and public education needs well beyond the needs considered in the initial project design.
See Kids GIS web page for more information.
= Core Team = 
* Allan Branscomb, University of Oregon
* Andy Morsell, Spatial Integrators Inc.
* Brandt Melick, City of Springfield
* Cy Smith, Oregon Dept. Administrative Services
* Frank Warmerdam, Open Source GeoSpatial Foundation
* Rick Ellis, Cadapult Software Inc.
* Robert Harmon, Oregon Water Resource Dept.
= Relationship to OSGeo = 
At this time this project is independent, and not directly affiliated with OSGeo. However, it is closely aligned with several goals of OSGeo, and so OSGeo is contemplating providing hosting an initial development and deployment server (on Telascience hardware).
= System Status = 
Prototype is operational. Please see: Kids GIS Prototype Portal
The telascience blade in use is 198.202.74.217, a Fedora Core 4 linux system. 
Installed Packages (/usr/local):
* PROJ 4.5.0
* OSSIM (CVS?)
* FDO 3.1.0
* MapGuide 1.0.1
* PostgeSQL 8.0.8 (/usr)
* PostGIS 1.1.5 (with proj, but not geos support)
Information on restarting the server in case of problems can be found at:

Korean Chapter Report 2008

== Korean Language Local Chapter ==
* Contact name: Shin, Sanghee
=== Key Accomplishments ===
* Organizing Korean Language Local Chapter at Feb, 2008
* Creating Korean Language Local Chapter Google Groups Page for Communications
* Holding 3 Times Regular Meeting(May, August, December, 2008)
* Translations(OSGeo Webpage, GRASS Glossary, QGIS Manual)
* Release uDIG Korean version(Thanks to Sejong Univ.)
=== Areas for Improvement ===
* OSGeo & FOSS4G are not so well-known to Korean GIS community still yet. 
* Most of our works were done by small key-persons.
* We are not a legal entity.
=== Opportunities to Help ===
* Successful case of FOSS4G implementations will be warmly welcomed especially in the government area. 
* Need help in translating many materials to Korean. 
=== Outlook for 2009 ===
* Regular Meeting(March, June, October - FOSS4G2009:Sydney, December). We are now discussing the joint conference with other major GIS society in Korea to promote FOSS4G & OSGeo.
* Attend GIS Conference as a exhibitor to promote our activities, OSGeo and FOSS4G.
* Preparing legal entity regsistration
