Today, The Open Source Geospatial Foundation celebrates our 11th Anniversary. Posted in Events, OSLabs, Policy | Tagged GODAN, open data | Leave a reply Greetings to everyone as we celebrate our 11th Anniversary GeoForAll – Building and expanding Open Geospatial Science I would like to welcome all interested to join the GODAN WG on Capacity Development and contribute to education and training on Open Data in food and agricultural sciences. I am happy to share the ideas that i presented for the GODAN Capacity Development WG at the Hague meeting. The workshop was hosted at the Ministry of Economic Affairs in the Hague earlier this week. The Netherlands Ministry of Economic Affairs, CABI, GODAN, CTA and Wageningen UR partnered to organise the 3rd Workshop on Creating Impacts with Open Data in Agriculture and Nutrition. A core principle behind GODAN is that a solution to Zero Hunger lies within existing, but often unavailable, agriculture and nutrition data. The Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition (GODAN) supports the proactive sharing of open data to make information about agriculture and nutrition available, accessible and usable to deal with the urgent challenge of ensuring world food security. That’s one in every nine people, with the majority being women and children. Prize: 1000 Euros for the winning team and certificates from GODAN and NASA.Ĭontact: details at Posted in Events, OSLabs, Policy | Leave a reply Invitation to Capacity Development WGĬurrently, nearly 800 million people struggle with debilitating hunger and malnutrition and can be found in every corner of the globe. Ideas may include ways for optimally linking local farming communities directly with potential customers, tools for visualising spatio-temporal aspects of local farming, tools for helping reducing wastage (for example linking with local food banks), and any number of solutions for helping our goal of Zero Hunger. Participants must use some aspect of the OpenCitySmart Design and use NASA’s open source virtual globe technology, WebWorldWind as a source of open data.
We want to bring together researchers and students to find solutions for local farming in growing cities, using open agriculture and nutrition data.

Contributions have involved the following: 1) lead development of add-ons, several of which have been integrated as part of the core system available for direct download via sourceforge, 2) lead provider of high-resolution data sets, 3) lead help desk support through Internet relay chat for end-users and developers, and 4) significant technical contributions to the core system including bug identification, tracking and resolution as well as ideas for new features and source code modifications.We are welcoming participation from all interested for the NASA-GODAN Local Farming challenge. This paper also describes the significant contributions of the international opensource community in making World Wind what it is today. World Wind is not only an application in which add-ons can be integrated, but is also being developed as a plugin that can be integrated with other applications. World Wind is also a customizable system that can be integrated as part of other applications. World Wind is a geographic information system that provides graphical access to terabytes of imagery and elevation models for planets and other celestial objects including satellite and other data of the Earth, Moon, Mars, Venus, and Jupiter as well as astronomical data made available through the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. This paper describes NASA World Wind, its technical architecture and performance, and its emerging use for mission operations.
