Re:Earth is an open-source geospatial data platform for government and
public sector.
High school students in Hiroshima have used Re:Earth for a range of
initiatives, from peace education to inquiry-based GIS learning.
In this session, held in conjunction with FOSS4G Hiroshima, the students
will introduce their own initiatives and what they learned.
Eukarya Inc., the company developing and operating the open-source
geospatial data platform Re:Earth, was founded by members of the laboratory
of Professor Hidenori Watanabe, known for creating the Hiroshima Archive.
Re:Earth was developed with the vision of democratizing digital archives —
making it possible for anyone, regardless of technical background, to
create and share them easily.
High school students in Hiroshima have used Re:Earth in a range of
projects, from peace education to inquiry-based GIS learning: Funairi High
School has focused on preserving memories related to the atomic bombing and
visualizing war-related sites, while Shinjo High School has applied
Re:Earth to community-focused projects, exploring it as a tool for
geospatial data and mapping.
In this session, held in conjunction with FOSS4G Hiroshima, the students
will present their own projects and reflect on what they learned through
using Re:Earth.
