Thanks for that tutorial. I'll need to first have administrative access to
both GeoServer and PostgreSQL running on a server.
So, I'm thinking of setting up, as I mentioned, both mapserver via geomoose
and geoserver.
I am new to all of this, so I'm going to send questions to the individual
Hi Nitin, I'd suggest you focus only on running something on your own PC for

again, maybe someone on here knows of some public services you might use, but
I'm not familiar with any.
For getting started I recommend you

I just had a good conversation with Tyler Mitchell at OSGeo.
I am going to dive in and set up a server with openlayers and try different
tools for the server layer.
What I need is something that deals well with WFS-T and WMS-T.
WFS-T is for adding and editing features, and WMS-T is for
Here's a tutorial for OpenLayers WFS-T Using a GeoServer Hosted PostGIS Layer.
A WFS-Transaction can be used to add, remove or modify the features
that are loaded, and most importantly allows for the changes to be
committed back and saved to the parent source.
Great!!
So, I went forward and started a page on the OSGeo Wiki around the project:

Hi Nitin,
Maybe you can contact those who made this map.

Perhaps you can get some collaboration.

Great!!

It looks like the project can be done by starting it with GeoMoose, but I
want to survey all the other web mapping tools available. Geomoose is made
with mapserver and openlayers. Perhaps Geoserver and other tools/software
have advantages over mapserver?
I'm starting from scratch, so you have to
fantastic!!
thanks!
Hopefully they will become part of the team :)
This is just for countries - imagine every road, city, ethnic and linguistic
group, the flow of trade, events such as battles and wars, etc... and
animated...
There is so much out there, it all needs to kind of put together.
Nitin,
Openlayers can build polygons on the map.
GeoMoose, which is built on top of OpenLayers can also do this.
In both cases you will need to build out a service to store the created
polygons.

awesome! thanks!
Are there any other projects that use polygons that you're aware of??
Is there any word about GeoMoose becoming an online open community like
openstreetmap or onegeology?
Looks like this is the project I need to join in development. I did a demo
of GeoMoose, it looks pretty

The key is that it's a different tool (like most GIS desktop). It's a
line that has the same start/end point and then a proper tag to indicate
what it is. You can see in downloads of OSM data that buildings etc get
put
Someone also told me you can do polygons in openstreetmap (parking lots,
buildings, etc.). Does anyone know how to do this? I can't seem to be able
to figure it out...
Vector editing in OpenLayers (i.e. drawing points, lines and polygons).
