- Call for Agenda Items
- Scheduling for the Islandora GIS Interest Group
- Restructuring of the Interest Group roles 1. James must resign as the convenor of the Islandora GIS Interest Group due to constraints upon temporal and other resources
- Next Meeting 1. June 12 , 2015
- Integrating GIS Services and Islandora (Slides)
- Status of the Vagrant Environments 1. Vagrant boxes released in a more stable condition on HashiCorp's Atlas
- Testing within the Vagrant Environments
1. Puppet is used for provisioning
2. Vagrant is used to manage the VM's
- Boxes are then generated and released on Atlas 3. Capturing feedback is necessary
- Refactor issues as functional test suites
- Implementing Behat testing suites for these boxes ensures a consistency in environments
- Geospatial data management and discovery
1. GeoBlacklight and GeoCombine offer resources
- XSLT's for transforming geospatial metadata (e. g. FGDC and ISO 19139 Documents) are actively developed
- This only yields forth JSON Objects 2. How is this to be managed moving forward with Fedora Commons 4?
- Would a service integrate (or, an extension be developed) for Apache Camel?
- Interfacing with external web services
1. Neatline
- Institutional use cases have arisen for integrating geospatial data sets from Neatline into Islandora or Fedora Commons
- Currently, Neatline/Omeka only offers integration using the FedoraConnector plugin
- This does not appear to support integration for vectorized data sets aggregated using Neatline
- Nick Ruest has seen success in interfacing between Islandora and assets managed in Omeka 2. Anomalous data sets
- LIDAR data sets
- Not traditionally geospatial, but many similar use cases arise (e. g. interfacing with an external web service to render bitstream content)
- James Griffin (Lafayette College Libraries)
- Peter MacDonald (Hamilton College)
- Pat Dunlavey (Common Media, Inc.)
