FOSS4G 2023

Based on the implementation of the Global Statistical and Geospatial Framework (GSGF) proposed by the UN and implemented in Latin America and the Caribbean by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), a set of specific technological components were developed, such as a geoportal, a statistical manager and an API with the possibility of consuming information from different applications. At the same time, components already existing in the community were implemented such as Kobo Toolbox, GeoNode, Airflow, MapLibre, Nominatim and Metabase for the integration of information from the collection in the territory to the publication of the data. The project was initially carried out with a group of countries: Argentina, Paraguay, Honduras, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica and Ecuador.

The Open Metadata platform allows the integration of data and metadata for the management of governance within an organization to integrate different sources, control its publication, its access, standardize the processing and even to be able to analyze the lineage. What we are going to share is the adaptation of one of the data sources to the OGC - CSW service to be able to consume the cataloged metadata transparently in the system.

Based on the implementation of a set of forms in Kobo Toolbox, an information flow for the Fire Management Commission of the Argentine Republic was created to be able to integrate from the field the fire reports (on line / off line) in a simple way and their different stages of evolution. The automation of the ingestion to a Geonode, as a geospatial data manager allows the integration with weather forecast data, near real time information, fire incidences, hot spot detection and predictive fire indexes.
The integration is done with the Airflow tool, which guarantees integration and monitoring of information flows, simplifying the process during incidents.
