Overview
1
2010 SOPAC ICT development initiative to bring together disparate:
GIS Data Systems
GIS Data Formats SHP Files, MapInfo Files, GML Files, etc
Common, Searchable, Scalable Data Platform
Singular GIS and Spatial Data Repository

Goals
2
Enhance Data Sharing and Interoperability between:
Tools, Workflow, Processes & External third-party Systems
Single Data Platform, but Multiple End-User Frontends

Development
3
Common Platform developed using purely OSS components:
Data Layer – PostGIS Spatial ExtensionDifferent Data Formats converted using OGR (ogr2ogr) and PostGIS (shp2psql) utilities.
Data Exposure – OGC Web ServicesWMS, WFS, WCS - enables any modern desktop or web GIS tool to consume GIS data/layers
Data User Interfaces
Web Map Interface (Searchable, Bandwidth-aware)
Google Earth (KML file generation from Data Layers within the repository)
Other potential interfaces (desktop, web, or mobile) can be easily development using OGC Webservices
