[OSGeo-Discuss] Resource viewer for grama panchayat

2008-08-22 Thread നെടുമ്പാല ജയ്സെന്‍
 Hai,
Let me introduce my work to the list:-

http://cheruvannur.web4all.in/resources/

Hope, I can hear valuable suggestions.

It is hosted on a Debian GNU/Linux Etch server. It was my main project
during my M.Sc. course in last semester, and I decided to do this because I
wanted to do something useful for the panchayat - my first employer
:) (Panchayats are the rural local authorities in India, just like
Municipalities - the urban thing.) My course is just finished.

I developed this thing, on a Debian GNU/Linux Etch system using GRASS GIS,
PostgreSQL with PostGIS, Quantum GIS, UMN MapServer, ka-Map etc. Coded in
MapScript and php. All are Free/Open Source things.

I want to expand this to the entire district with some added query modules,
such as shortest route to a place, maximum coverage for some areas, flood
risk analysis etc, to make it a complete plan-development support system.

Yah, I will send it to you shortly. Problem is that I don't have a computer
for myself, and away from my workplace. So every files relating to the
project were written on optical media, and I need to search the screenshots
on that.

Hmm, Am volunteering with a community, called Swathanthra Malayalam
Computing (http://smc.org.in). And, I use Malayalam in every possible
instances. That is why I set my name in Malayalam instead of English in
emails. You can get unicode malayalam fonts from this link:-
http://smc.org.in/en/content/fonts Please don't ask me to change it to
English. :)

The language is Malayalam. It is my name, displayed in this script. It reads
Nedumpala Jaisen. But in English, my name is stated as Jaisen Nedumpala. :)
The free unicode Malayalam fonts are available here:-

Thank you.

Could you please share, what were the problems you people faced at
Karakulam? In my experience, panchayats (of Kerala) are always ready to
accept things of these kind, if those are really useful to them. Simple
solutions would do more effect. Only problem is that, they may not be able
to use it without a training, as they lack expertise in the proper usage of
technology. This is not a problem in real, but an opportunity, right?
