So it's all Database based.<br>
<br>
Hmm, I figured it was going to be all different types of source
data. This is kinda making it too easy now. (Really!)<br>
<br>
The system I was going to demo has some good pluses as far as easy
integration of disparate data. I don't suppose there is a compressed
DB dump of this data around anywhere?<br>
<br>
I'll work through the Database stuff first then and see where it all
comes out.<br>
<br>
Don't have a PostGIS database available at the moment though, will need
to get that going too.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi Bob,
I think what Jody was trying to point you at was this:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/FOSS4G2007_IntegrationShowcase#PostGIS_Database_:_Refractions_Research">http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/FOSS4G2007_IntegrationShowcase#PostGIS_Database_:_Refractions_Research</a>
It is what you say, a single spot of storage for the data which has a
subset of those datasets posted on the Canadian Geodata page.

<pre wrap="">Jody,
Ok, I must be dense, I don't see a link to any data anywhere on this
page: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/FOSS4G2007_IntegrationShowcase">http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/FOSS4G2007_IntegrationShowcase</a>
A lot of reference and catalog description links though.
Is this it? :<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Canadian_Geodata">http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Canadian_Geodata</a>, not
exactly obvious from the previous page if you ask me.
Ok, this is a neat idea, but shouldn't there be one spot with a copy of
the data someplace, even just a subset of smaller datasets would start
folks going. It would make it much easier to get started on
participation.

PS. Join the osgeo data committee if you want to collaborate on this
kind of thing outside of the bounds of the conference.
