 Hi,
 OSGeo was registered (again after we already did in 2009) a few weeks
 ago [0] and discuss and board were informed 12 July [1]. I am happy to
 pass on the contact point role to anybody interested.
 
 I don't think we can register as an LMO for said reasons.
 
 Cheers,
 Arnulf

 Why not go for SDIC? After all OSGeo is a community and is
 strictly spatially oriented, focusing not only on data but mostly
 on software, which is also an important part of any SDI, isn't it?

 OSGeo as LMO at INSPIRE
 
 Hi,
 
 as far as I understand this, we are either SDIC (Spatial Data 
 Interest Community) or INSPIRE stakeholder organisation not 
 registered as an SDIC or LMO (according to 
 http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/index.cfm/action/mif)
 
 We are definitively not LMO (Legally Mandated Organisations (LMOs) 
 are all the Member States’ public authorities, institutions and 
 bodies, ...) - thank you for the correction
 
 In this case, I would propose, register OSGeo as stakeholder 
 organisation not registered as an SDIC or LMO (?)

 HI Joachim, Is LMO status not restricted to national gov units 
 dealing with SDI or organizations delegate by those?

 Hi,
 
 I am new to GeoTools. Is there any book or documentation available apart 
 from the Java Docs.
 
 We are working on a product where we would like to store floor plans of 
 buildings. We want to use our own coordinate system (in feet or meters). 
 Also we want to store a hierarchy of physical locations i.e. building 
 contains floors, floors contains rooms etc. We want to provide local 
 coordinate systems to each level in the hierarchy and also provide 
 capability to convert from one coordinate system to another as we move 
 up and down the hierarchy.
 
 We have not been able to find a suitable solution using PostGis to 
 represent hierarchy for Cartesian coordinate systems and hence we feel 
 that instead of making modifications on top of PostGis, we would like to 
 use GeoTools and do some of the calculations on the application side.
 
 Does GeoTool provide majority of the functions provided by PostGis i.e. 
 contains, within, neighbor, distance, bounding box, intersection etc.?
 
 Is there any other alternative?
 
 Regards,

[OSGeo-Discuss] Support for nomination of Ian Edwards

2013-08-20 Thread Addy Pope
I would also like to add my support for Ian.  Ian has been chair of the 
OSGeo:UK chapter over the past year and has been an important member of 
the FOSS4G 2013 local organising committee.  The enthusiasm and energy 
he has shown in both of these roles would benefit the wider OSGeo 
community.  Ian has also championed the use of open source software in 
UK government through his role at the Met Office.


Cheers

Addy Pope
