SAC Shared Building Services

This page is to capture all the needs for Windows and Mac binary building
All OSGeo Projects have a need for building binaries for Windows and Mac OSX.
Since these platforms are proprietary and need extra licensing, there is a bit more needed to satisfy than for Linux systems.
Right now each project kind of does their own thing and no position to easily share.
Current State
* OSGeo4W - builds QGIS and Grass binaries, largely funded by QGIS project at moment
* GeoServer was building binaries for windows - using their windows jenkins slavebot, but lost that
* PostGIS builds windows binaries for PostGIS and pgRouting and other PostGIS related extensions (ogr_fdw, pgpointcloud) using their windows jenkins bot
* R Windows binary packages distributed by the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) using OSGeo software (chiefly PROJ, GDAL and GEOS) use custom built binaries compatible with the build train used by R and are static linked; at present both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries are deployed. Static linkage is used to avoid having to deploy a package manager for external software on which R packages depend, since CRAN as a package manager already supports over 15000 packages with three binary versions (devel, release, old release) for Windows and macOS.
On Mac Side
* QGIS builds there own
* bottle.download.osgeo.org Homebrew binary packages for a bunch of OSGeo projects
* R macOS. CRAN packages for macOS are static linked to custom built binaries, using the build train used by R. Static linkage is used to avoid having to deploy a package manager for external software on which R packages depend, since CRAN as a package manager already supports over 15000 packages with three binary versions (devel, release, old release) for Windows and macOS.
Future State
Ideally have a set of resources shared by current Windows/Mac Builders. Costs funded via SAC budget. 
In order to get to that point we need to research the following
# Who are the interested parties and those willing to do the work of packaging?
# What options do we have for supporting the need
* Windows cloud hosters - Hetzer, Atlantic.net, Microsoft Azure, other hosters
* CI: 
# https://circleci.com/build-environments/ (supports Windows and Mac)
# https://www.appveyor.com/ (supports Windows and Mac)
# GitHub package feature?
* Distribution - download.osgeo.org, repo.osgeo.org (we could conceivably do windows/mac distribution here and replicate this to a cloud offering for redundancy repo.osgeo.org (is a nexus repository supporting deployment of maven, docker images, CPAN R packages, Nuget packages, yum, and apt )
* Key Signing - OSGeo currently pays for and we'll need to discuss how these keys are shared
* How will we grant access to these resources?

SAC TODO List

This page is stale, todo items now primarily kept in Trac
== Short Term == 
* Share network user directories between systems. 
* Define SAC:Security Groups Policy
* Admit more volunteers to SAC.
* Build a Membership Application.
== Longer Term ==
* Setup buildbot master system.
* Define backup strategy and put into operation.
== Issues to bear in mind ==
(This is content moved from the Infrastructure Working Group page after SAC was formed)
=== Knowledge Transfer ===
This group is going to need to document procedures, locations of things, and so forth quite carefully so that stuff doesn't get completely forgotten, and so that we aren't too limited to one person to fix things. This will require dicipline but will be important. 
=== Permissions Management === 
We will need a way of managing the permissions level of various OSGeo members. It is planned that an LDAP server will be used to handle the user database (a distinct list from those at CollabNet for now). But does this address how we delegate permissions to different people? How do we decide who has login permissions on test systems for instance, or who has update permissions in a given Plone instance?
Some categories of permissions we need to address:
* Some systems would only provide login access to the system administration working group. These systems we would hope could be very stable. 
* Login on some systems, such as test systems would need to be very widely available, essentially to all OSGeo project developers for testing. Presumably normal developers would not require root access, but we could still assume these systems are likely to be subject to damage and need to be fairly easily recreated.
* We may also want "Project" systems, roughly owned by a single project with appropriate project staff having full (ie. root) permissions. Can we provide some sort of virtualization to offer roughly this to people? Perhaps "chrooted jails"? This might be the sort of place that projects would have automated scripts running to create nightly snapshots, re-create projects web pages or whatever.

SDI Committee

NOTE: This wiki page was created based on discussion on the mailing list. The OSGeo SDI Committee was not established yet. This wiki page is to be used for the committee's establishing. 
== About ==
A spatial data infrastructure (SDI) is a data infrastructure implementing a framework of geographic data, metadata, users and tools that are interactively connected in order to use spatial data in an efficient and flexible way. Wikipedia:SDI
OSGeo considers the ability of its software projects to implement various SDIs an important feature for organizations around the world.
=== Software components of SDIs ===
Basic software components of SDI are:
* catalogue service
* spatial data service
* processing services
* spatial data repository
* Client software (desktop and web) communicates via standards to those services, which interacts directly with the user. It enables download, display, query, analysis and updating spatial data.
OSGeo projects cover all these software components. Some of them are covered by multiple OSGeo projects.
=== Standards ===
Most SDIs are related to OGC standards (OGC OWS) as well as ISO. They are all well implemented in OSGeo projects.
=== Current SDIs ===
* GEOSS Global Earth Observation System of Systems. 2005-2015
* GMES Global Monitoring for Environment and Security. Should be fully operational during 2014
* INSPIRE Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community. See also INSPIRE
* UNSDI United Nations Spatial Data Infrastructure
* NSDI National Spatial Data Infrastructure
* CGDI Canadian Geospatial Data Infrastructure
* add more here
== Goals ==
* Coordinate efforts of development teams
* Help to make OSGeo software stack the best choice for SDIs implementation
* Promote OSGeo software stack, as the best choice for SDIs implementation
* ...
== Methods ==
* Checklists
* Tests
* Reference implementations
* Relevant case studies
== Communication ==
* Until it wont fit our needs, we are using inspire-data at lists.osgeo.org - please feel free to join us.
* IRC meetings
** how often should meetings occur?
* Google+ group? so that it is possible also to make a fast call

SOTM 2011

From http://www.stateofthemap.org
The State of the Map is the world’s leading OpenStreetMap community event. Join participants from all around the world in Denver, Colorado, USA from September 9th – 11th to hear talks, participate in workshops and hang out with OpenStreetMappers from around the world. If you are involved with any aspect of OpenStreetMap from mapping to coding to campaigning, or if you want to hear more from the global mapping movement that is changing the way maps are made and used,the State of the Map is for you!
== SOTM 2011 ==
The State of the Map (SotM) organizing committee announces the dates for the 2011 International conference for OpenStreetMap (OSM). An anticipated number of over 250 attendees will meet September 9-11, 2011 in Denver, Colorado.
"September is a delightful time of year in Colorado! The typically mild weather allows for plenty of extracurricular activities to enjoy; from a Rockies baseball game or touring a local microbrewery to hiking or taking a late summer drive in the mountains, there’s so much to do." says Ariann Nassel, volunteer with the SotM local organizing committee.
The dates were chosen to be before the FOSS4G conference held in Denver, September 12-16. It will allow people interested in both events to enjoy both SotM and FOSS4G within one trip.

SPRING GIS documentation

SPRING is a state-of-the-art GIS and remote sensing image processing system with an object-oriented data model which provides for the integration of raster and vector data representations in a single environment. SPRING is a product of Brazil's National Institute for Space Research (INPE/DPI (Image Processing Division)...
* This documentation was translated and written by USFWS. At one point it was downloadable from the internet although I can't find it now.
* Some seems excellent. Some still has areas that could use polish. It is listed as a draft.

School GIS Use Cases

Back to Education_Committee_Work_Program
This page is for documenting User stories and Use Cases for GIS in Primary/Elementary and Secondary School Education, whether they are for teaching geography or other subjects or for teaching GIS per se as is currently required in the South African syllabus.
Hopefully FOSS GIS projects will take these to heart when developing or putting solutions together for schools.
Our aim is to achieve some of these for launch at www.foss4g2008.org.
What must the ideal GIS software do and how must it do it from a teacher's and learner's perspective?
=Actors=
*Geography teacher
*Computer / IT teacher
*Pupil / learner
*IT admin staff
*School admin
*others?
=User Stories=
Please document any user stories here
=Use Cases=
Please add to this list and elaborate on ones already here.
==Cross-platform: Linux, Windows or Mac==
All three OSs are used in schools (in SA at any rate) 
==One-click installation==
Integrated software stack so teachers and learners have to launch a minimal number of applications. Teachers do not have the time or expertise to install and set up multiple software packages.
==Simplified and customised GUIs to lower the entry threshold==
===for teachers to teach curriculum requirements of GIS===
List the SA requirements here - these would be 'simple' to package - one click for each item...
===for teachers to use GIS to teach geography and other subjects===
What other ways do teachers use GIS?
*cross-sections
*river long sections
*etc... a long list!
===for learners to use for hands-on work===
*making a map
*projecting
*printing
*etc... another long list
==Free, integrated global and local data package==
One well-maintained global data set and then separately maintained country data sets - so the 'release' ebcomes locale-specific.
==excellent documentation==
==multi-lingual==
SA has 11 official languages
==framework for local contributors==
...to structure and contribute exercises, lessons, etc, with a central website.
Sharing resources a la OSGeo pages for tertiary education
==network deployment==
Desktop installation vs network deployment on multi-seat or terminal server basis. 
==functionality for more sophisticated users==
The fast learners and 'switched on' teachers will want to go beyond the syllabus and do more interesting and exciting things
==functionality / points of entry for 'computer studies' learners (i.e. developers)==
The 'computer studies' learners can work with the geography learners and write custome applications, develop web maps and mashups, etc. and make their coding exercises more outcomes based and exciting.
==school web map services==
Let the geogaphy and computer departments implement real mapping solutions for the school
