[Geo4All] GeoForAll teaching and research resources

Sat Jan 27 09:50:50 PST 2018

The old website is here - http://old.www.osgeo.org

But it is a drupal website, it should like you are referencing a web
application similar to how service providers was done:
- https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Service_Provider_Directory
- links to http://www.osgeo.org/search_profile is broken, but the
application can still be scene here http://old.www.osgeo.org/search_profile
- For the service provider directory we on purpose made no plan to port
content to the new website, instead we expect service providers that are
involved today (rather than in 2007) to create new page (
https://www.osgeo.org/service-providers/) which can do a better job of
showcasing their activities in our community.

Does anyone have a link to the educational web-database application?
Perhaps it is still available by a different URL?

Found a reference in the wiki
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Edu_current_initiatives ... to
http://www.osgeo.org/educational_content

Adjusting the URL ---> http://old.www.osgeo.org/educational_content

Found it :)
