Managing and making available spatial resources is challenging for smaller organisations with limited resources, such as Iwi. Iwi-Cat provides an intuitive way to accomplish this. Workshop participants will gain hands-on experience implementing an opensource stack - consisting GeoNetwork, GeoServer, PostGIS and supported by QGIS with the GeoCat Bridge Plugin.
This workshop will begin with a hands-on introduction to the GeoNetwork platform, exploring its capabilities and how it may meet your requirements. After this, we will explore several implementation approaches to GeoNetwork your organisation may use to ease the discovery and management of your spatial resources,
1 - GeoCat - The most straightforward approach to implementing GeoNetwork for your organisation is a cloud-based subscription service provided by GeoCat B.V., who maintains the GeoNetwork opensource project.
2 - Self-hosted GeoNetwork - Many organisations in our region take this approach. We will learn how to install, manage and use GeoNetwork on your own server, including the latest ANZLIC guidance and the simplified ANZMetLite v2 editor.
3 - Iwi-Cat - Managing and making available spatial resources is challenging for smaller organisations with limited resources, such as Iwi. Iwi-Cat provides an intuitive way to accomplish this. Workshop participants will gain hands-on experience implementing an opensource stack - consisting of GeoNetwork, GeoServer, PostGIS and supported by QGIS with the GeoCat Bridge Plugin
