For a customer of ours, we created this construction:
The customer uses SAP with an integrated Bentley viewer. They also want
to share their data through opengis services. This is our toolchain:
- SAP generates a csv and the customers GIS environment (Bentley based)
generates a shapefile.
- These files are written daily to a shared directory on a centos server
running geoserver and postgresql/postgis
- a cron job uses ogr to parse the shapefile and the csv into postgis
and do a variety of checks
- the same cronjob then does some sql magic to parse the previously
generated tables into tables that are used by geoserver
- geoserver exposes the result table(s) as wfs and wms
I don't know how SAP generates the csv, but I assume this is some Abap
logic. Anyway, it is a construction that works and we retrieve the right
results.
Open GIS tools used:
- GDAL/OGR
- Postgis
- Geoserver
Kind regards,
Milo van der Linden

Hi guys,
Does anyone have experience getting data from SAP for mapping porpoise?
I need to generate a layer with all the company customers and to show
them in a map.
Does anybody know about a middleware, tool, something that could help me
with this?
Thanks in advance.
