SUMMARY:Worldmap Training
DESCRIPTION:-------- DATE:  -------------------------------------------------------------    1:00pm to 3:00pm    -------- LOCATION:  ---------------------------------------------------------    B127 52 Oxford St - Northwest Building  The Center for Geographic Analysis is developing WorldMap   (http://worldmap.harvard.edu/ [1]), an open source platform designed to   encourage collaboration between researchers who need access to geospatial   information. Despite the many ways in which research materials can now be   accessed and shared across the web, the methods suitable for geospatial   materials lag. The reasons are many and interconnected: 1) the sparse   implementation of standards, 2) the size and complexity of geospatial   datasets, 3) the lack of a platform to support geospatial collaboration that   is easy to access, 4) the lack of an incentive for researchers to upload   geospatial datasets to a system that supports eventual sharing. WorldMap   attempts to address all of these problems. Participants will learn about how   WorldMap works and how to use it to become an accomplished online map maker.
