Introduction
Train-the-trainers course developed in the framework of the FP7 enviroGRIDS project by UNIGE
Goal: promoting GEO/GEOSS data sharing principles through the use of open source & interoperable solutions
Different formats1 or 2 hours: live demo1 to 2 days with hands-on
What is the approach taken?
• Ask questions and answer them, e.g. How to store geospatial data? How to publish geospatial data?
• Tutorial alternates theory / hands on• Simple to start with
To complete the course users just need to download & copy a virtual machine on their computer “start” HTML page Possibility to go through exercises quickly (instructions: bold / bullet points) Simple user interface
• InteroperabilityVirtual machine can be used on Mac OS, Windows, Linux OGC-compliant technologies
• Teaching / Test / Production Deploy the VM in a production environment
