[Geo4All] open curriculum listings

Wed Aug 21 11:21:49 PDT 2019

It was tricky but I found the old edu content inventory based on the link for the old osgeo website

http://old.www.osgeo.org/educational_content

I think the idea for the new website was to get a clean start, because quite a bit of the material in the old catalog was obsolete and the links were broken. We submitted our updated material under the resources (e.g. you get it when you search for GRASS or UAV)
> https://www.osgeo.org/resources/ 

So Kurt I suggest that you provide the link to your material there.

My suggestion is if needed please request for OSGeo budget to get GetInteractive (the people who redesigned the website) to help put the old repository and contents to the new website asa priority. Thanks.
