[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo Advocate list missing

[Cameron Shorter]

Hi all,

It appears that the list of people that used to be on the OSGeo Advocate 
list is missing:


https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Advocate

Does anyone know what happened to it?

Looking at the internet archive, I see it did work here:

https://web.archive.org/web/20170608053644/https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Advocate

The process used to work as explained here:

I am not sure I see a change removing a list, do you know this worked?

[OSGeo-Discuss] ESA-NASA WebWorldWind

[Hogan, Patrick (ARC-PX)]

Dear OSGeo & GeoForAll, 

Please indulge me three (3) points to make here (again), 

(1) the ESA-NASA collaboration on WebWorldWind, 

(2) the Explorer ^starter app^ and 

(3) the WorldWindServerKit (GeoServer) with integrated layer viewer, the 
Explorer (again).

(1) ESA-NASA Collaboration

ESA and NASA are working jointly to advance the ESA-NASA WebWorldWind platform, 
https://worldwind.arc.nasa.gov/web/. 

ESA has built several apps with it, including the EO Browser for 
http://sentinel-hub.com/

ESA Sentinel App for iOS: 
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/esa-sentinel/id1036738151

ESA Sentinel App for Android: 
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=esa.sentinel

(2) The WorldWind Explorer web app framework, http://worldwind.earth

The Explorer is good for GSoC students, SME’s, OSGeo aficionados, and a world 
hungry to be on ‘one-page’ for spatial data. To reach that beautiful 
world-working-in-concert we provide a ^starter app,^ the WorldWind Explorer. It 
is possible for Earthlings to work in concert with each other on those common 
solutions they all need, i.e., urban infrastructure management, weather, 
climate research, first-responder stuff, etc. 

(3) The WorldWindServerKit (WWSK 'whiskey')

The Explorer is integrated into NASA's GeoServer distribution, the WorldWind 
Server Kit (WWSK, ‘whiskey’) 

https://worldwind.arc.nasa.gov/serverkit/

https://github.com/NASAWorldWind/WorldWindServerKit

• Whiskey is scale-able, it can be deployed to a server or run standalone on a 
laptop.
• An agency could host a whiskey server (GeoServer) on the internet or an 
intranet.
• An agency could publish their models and maps in their WWSK server(s).
• Whiskey can access data/maps/imagery from other remote Web Map Service (WMS) 
servers, thus a whiskey server could be configured to provide a single point of 
entry for many WMS services.
• If you advance ~2:34:00 (2 hours and 34 minutes) into this ‘Education’ 
session at ESA Earth Observation conference last September, you’ll see and hear 
Bruce describing ‘whiskey’:

[OSGeo-Discuss] WFS 3.0 and SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog sprint in Colorado

[Chris Holmes]

Hello OSGeo-ers!

I just wanted to make sure everyone knew about an event [1] I'm helping
organize, to bring together developers to give feedback on the evolving WFS
3.0 specification. It's organized by Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), and
sponsored by USGS, but the goal is make it different than a typical OGC
event. Indeed the direct inspiration is the code sprints that OSGeo runs,
but to center it around a standard and give developers an opportunity to
actually code against the spec _before_ it becomes an official standard,
and to have any feedback incorporated.

I'm not sure if many people have been following the progress of WFS 3.0,
but it's been made more like how we build open source software, with an
open repository on github [2], and management of the spec through issues
and pull requests. And it's JSON and RESTful at the core, aiming to be much
easier to implement than existing OGC specs. For more backstory on it and
my take on its potential see my blog posts [3].

I'd love to see a number of OSGeo people come, it's on March 6 & 7th in Ft.
Collins, Colorado. Contributing I believe will help show OGC that there is
interest in the wider developer and open source world if they do things
differently, and help evolve how they create standards to be more
compatible with how developers work. I'm also organizing a day on March 8th
on SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog[4] [5], an open spec a group of us started
working on to search satellite imagery archives, that I'm hoping we can
align with the WFS specification. If you're interested in WFS and/or STAC
just email me and I can give you more details, or just fill out the form at
https://goo.gl/forms/RqQtNbfdEOHuLE272 - there are some limited travel
grants if that helps get there.

I know travel may be tough for those also going to Bonn, as the OSGeo
sprint there is two weeks later. I am figuring out if we will do a remote
participation option for Colorado, so email me if you're interested in
that. And Angelos had a great idea[6], of organizing a session on WFS/STAC
at Bonn, which I'd love to see. Drop me a line if you are attending the
OSGeo code sprint and interested in attending (or leading :) a session
there.

best regards,

Chris
