Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] FOSS4G2009 to reach those who cannot attend

These are all kind thoughts. Would you consider volunteering to help
put together the conference live DVD? You can see an example from
FOSS4G2008 etc...

 Hi All,
 FOSS4G every year is a keenly followed event. Many await the publication of 
 material on the website eagerly such that they can follow labs, workshops and 
 presentations of choice.

 So the present organisers may please request those especially conducting 
 labs/workshops to keep in mind the multitudes who browse them through the 
 internet can have equal benefit. This can be achieved my keeping on the 
 internet for download
 1. All the binaries that are required for the exercise
 2. All the data that are required for the exercise
 3. All the printed material provided for the exercise
 4. All the other material provided to the attendees, CD or DVD etc

 I agree that most of it is done each time, except for a few instances
 Example:'Download data from the CD provided', is given in the lab pdf.. but 
 the data is not given for download...
 Example:'Run the pg_setenv.bat file first,' (FOSS4G2007).. even on date a 
 nice archive is available from the FOSS4G2007 website, data, text etc..
 but, the pg_setenv.bat, not there.

 This may be trivial for experts, but for those learning through the internet 
 and depending on 'Discuss Lists', it will be a roadblock.

 Cheers
 Ravi Kumar

[OSGeo-Discuss] Versioning of spatial data - Query

2009-07-29 Thread Abhay
Hello All,
I wish to know, is there any system other than ESRI ArcSDE that supports
versioning of GeoSpatial Data.

If so could anyone point me to a possible solution in opensource and apart
from write my own custom application/Workflow from scratch.

I have tried google for solution but am not able make or break any idea to
solve this, so with a confused mind I ask, could there be a possibility that
SVN or any version control system (application/mechanics/functionality) be
merged with PostgreSQL (Postgis) to create this solution.

Rgds.

Abhay.

Try PostGIS Manager plugin for QGIS. An early release, but it should be ok.

GeoTools has some custom extensions which add versioning capabilities on 
top of postgis:


http://geotools.codehaus.org/Versioning+Postgis

On top of that some extensions were also built into GeoServer that 
extend the WFS protocol to support versioning:


http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/Versioning+WFS+-+Extensions

It is still experimental at this stage but people have successfully set 
up working demos with it.
