  1. Minnesota Geospatial CommonsTest Implementation Geospatial Commons WorkgroupJessica Deegan, Metropolitan Council Presentation to State Agency Geospatial Advisory Council July 13, 2010

  2. Overview • Test implementation of the “Minnesota Geospatial Commons” • What is it? • Who is involved? • Why do this? • When – timeline?

  3. What is the “Commons”? • A single place we all go to find and share geospatial resources

  4. Organization MetroGIS Policy Board MnGeo & Advisory Councils Coordinating Committee MnGeo Standards Technical Leadership Workgroup Geospatial Commons Workgroup Web Services Trust Issues Broker/Portal Implementation Identify Issues Define Requirements Identify Solutions Implement

  5. Why Joint Workgroup? • Strong support at top and grass roots • MetroGIS, DNR, MnGeo, Mn/DOT • Previous work by Standards Committee • Opportunity to collaboratively develop one web place MnGeo Standards Technical Leadership Workgroup Geospatial Commons Workgroup Web Services Trust Issues Broker/Portal Implementation

  6. Why Create It? • No single web location to find or share geo data in MN • Geo apps and web services even less accessible • Opportunities to share more directly/effectively behind the scenes • Users & Producers want it • Survey results of geo data consumers

  7. Why Create It? User/Producer Survey • Nearly 540 respondents; from casual map user to GIS professional • Downloading data to use in desktop GIS still common – but increasing need for: • Finding data in alternative ways – e.g. Google Search • Demand for services, especially geocoding is prominent. • Easy linking between services and desktop or web applications

  8. Why “Commons” • “Portal” = where you find. Belongs to some one else. • “Commons” = where you share. Belongs to all.

  9. Key Functions

  10. Key Functions - Find • Search • Structured interface • Spatial (e.g. bounding box) • Metadata • Google accessible • Catalog (viewable page) • Registry (back end database)

  11. Key Functions - Evaluate • Metadata viewer • Map viewer • Download data or connect to web services • User Reviews (quality, reliability, etc.) • Web service monitoring

  12. Key Functions - Share • Publish • Metadata • Data for download • Services for consumption • Feeds (RSS & Twitter) • News/discussion • Shared development space • Best practices

  13. Key Functions - Administration • Catalog maintenance • Harvesting • Security & User management • Registry of web service users • Governance

  14. Project Plan – Key Points • Test implementation with ESRI GeoPortal Extension • MnGeo is hosting • Roughly 300 person hours • Sign off on resource commitment by 4 agencies (project sponsors) • Demo at GIS/LIS Conference in Oct.?

  15. Final Points • Driven by producers • Solid business needs • Strong executive commitment • Highly talented workgroup

  16. Active Workgroup Members • Chris Cialek, MnGeo • Jessica Deegan, Met. Council • Jim Dickerson, MnGeo • Jessica Fendos, DEED • Josh Gumm, Scott County • John Harrison, Mn/DOT • Mark Kotz, Met. Council (Chair) • Susanne Maeder, MnGeo • Chris Pouliot, DNR • Nancy Rader, MnGeo • Hal Watson, DNR • Paul Weinberger, Mn/DOT

  18. What are Web Services? • Designed for easy sharing • Waiting there to use on the Internet • Real Time! – no need for downloads/updates • No need to centralize all data back
