MapFish at Foss4G: Day 2

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009 by Cédric Moullet

After the very, very impressive presentation of Paul Ramsey:

here are my highlights of the day:
- Cloud computing: the future way of distributing geodata. Bastian Schaeffer made a nice explanation of Amazon and Google App Engine service and Claude presented the map.veloland.ch case study
- GeoCouch: maybe the geospatial database of the future, at least for web
- WPS plattform: Zoo project, mainly the server for now. Probably with a GeoExt client soon ;-)

MapFish at Foss4G: Day 1

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 by Cédric Moullet

After a very, very long trip, we arrived at Foss4G last week-end.
Today, it was workshop day. I followed the GeoMondrian/Spatialytics workshop and was really impressed by this tool. I can imagine thousand applications which uses the power of the spatial OLAP.
During the afternon, Claude, Eric, François and myself were happy to see 25 persons following the MapFish workshop. Don’t hesitate to try it.
