OSGEO - Open Source Geospatial Foundation
–a not-for-profit organization–mission to support and promote the collaborative
development of open geospatial technologies and data.–provides financial, organizational and legal support –serves as an independent legal entity to which community
members can contribute code, funding and other resources–serves as an outreach and advocacy organization–publishes the show-case OSGEO LiveDVD
4
OSGEO LiveDVD
a self-contained bootable DVD, USB thumb drive or Virtual Machine –based on the Xubuntu operating system–composed entirely of free software–pre-configured applications–a range of geospatial use cases, including storage,
publishing, viewing, analysis and manipulation of data.–also contains sample datasets and documentation
5
OSGEO LiveDVD
you can start up your computer with this system, try out virtually all existing Open Source software in the spatial domain, without having to install or even change anything on your computer

Webmapping and SDIlight
As part of many of our courses, we provide the participants with knowledge and tools to set up webmapping applications according to our SDIlight principles: => the technology of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI), applied in simple and cost–effective ways–to provide students with a platform for low–cost, yet
powerful ways of sharing data and maps

Modular webmapping exercises
modular in content :–setting up a WebMapping site –using OpenStreetMap data–adding your own data using the desktop QGIS appli-
cation–serving that data as Web Map and Web Feature
Services –using Geoserver and/or Mapserver–finally bringing it all together on interactive “slippy map”
websites using the OpenLayers API.

Modular webmapping exercises
modular in delivery :– starting with LaTeX source
delivered in many formats:– as “prose” for use in print (PDF)– as self-paced learning sheets (for Distance Education)
for workshops and courses in many guises:– from two hour informal “walk–in” workshops – to three week modules as part of our MSc curriculum– face-to-face teaching – using Distance Learning technology
