ShareGeo – a spatially enabled DSpace
• Implemented Geo-Search functionality using the open source OpenLayers API with access to Google Maps
• Results of searches are shown graphically on a map as bounding boxes
• Searching done on a database table storing the coordinate limits of the bounding box of the dataset

Progress to date
Current Stats (Jan 2009 - July 2010):• 3487 unique users• 3277 data downloads• 99 datasets deposited (though not many
voluntarily)
![Page 8: ShareGeo: Discovering and Sharing Geospatial Data - 12 months on and going open!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062514/558dfde21a28aba90d8b4666/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
How to encourage deposit…
2 key strategies:1. Offer an open version2. Create a plugin to enable direct deposit
to the repository from where users are creating data

Future technical improvements
• Visualize actual data with plug-in application• Provide data in other formats, including web-
services• Add features such as annotations, tagging and
ratings

Reasons for optimism …
• OS OpenData of course
• INSPIRE legislation
