Description
Do you want to learn how to build an Internet Map Server application using free and open source GIS? Do you want that server to display raster, vector and attribute information and perform spatial analysis and database queries over the Internet? Do you want to learn how to connect your map server to Postgres and PostGIS. If so, this course is for you. I will walk you step-by-step through the process of installing Geoserver, loading data, creating server side analytical processes, and finally show you how to render the data on the client side using Openlayers 3.0. Don't be afraid - this is a painless step-by-step approach that anyone can learn with my course.
When you are done with this course, you'll have the basics down. Now it's up to you to create impressive Internet mapping sites!
Who Should Attend!
- This course is for people who want to learn how to create Internet Map Server applications.
- Client server and Internet applications are fairly complicated, so the users should be familiar with using computers and interacting with applications on the Internet.
- Students should not be afraid to do a little bit of scripting to actually make the maps more responsive.
- This course is also good for managers who might not want to actually build an Internet Map Server themselves, but might want to learn how it is done so they can communicate better with developers.
