One of the results in our Masterportal Working Table (please find the recording here) was to have a Hackathon for those who are interested to replicate the Masterportal. Thanks Claus for the idea of the Hackathon and Tim for the spontaneous idea to replicate our solution for the sheep tracking. I am sure, that there is potential for more ideas in the SCORE project. If you have no concrete idea yet you can still join and the test data.
I created a doodle to check your availability and find a time that fits most of you. Please let us know your interest and availability until October 10th, 2020.
Nicholas and I prepared some information and requirements for you. I you need assistance please let us know.
Goal:
The goal of this Hackathon is a working (simple) Masterporal on the participants Server. We will use one/two central services for all participants to avoid some pitfalls.
Content of the workshop:
-
Download from Bitbucket
-
Configuration of the Masterportal
-
Adding new services
-
Configuration of the GUI
-
Finding other tools
Technical requirements:
In the run-up to the Hackathon, please check with the system administrator whether your server fulfils all requirements. If you have any questions about the technical requirements in your city/organisation please contact nicholas.schliffke@dataport.de until 23.10.2020 .
Internet access
Web server
We recommended to use an Apache web server. Ideally, this is already configured to provide content via the https protocol, otherwise, for example, the LocationAPI will not be available and user positioning will not be possible. If the server should also work as a proxy, it must be able to access the geo-services to be included. If the PHP proxy is to be used, PHP must be activated. If a direct access of the client to the geo-services is allowed, a proxy is normally not necessary.
Geo-services
For the Hackathon, we will use a central service for all. If you finish early, you can start including your own services (e.g. WMS or WFS). We also recommend to check which public services in your city/country you may want to include in the future.
We also recommended to set a CORS rule (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: “*”) for your own services so that every client can access the data directly.
I hope, that we will find some interested people J
