Hi devs,

Please improve the page

Hi Anne,

If I'm not mistaken, project ideas need to be submitted along with the
organization application, due in 10 days. See item 7 on this list:

http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2015/help_page#1._How_does_a_mentoring_organization

I would like to start drafting joint project ideas in the next week or
so, and have a couple of days left for review and submission.

Cheers,

C

Cristiano,

Yes I believe OSGeo is currently working on applying to participate.
The discussion happens on a dedicated email list.
http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/soc

Anne who is one of our organizers/lead mentors should have more info
for you.

Hello Cristiano, all,

we are currently sorting out details of OSGeo application for GSoC, and
I definitely welcome collaboration with HOT team over the topics you
listed.
Once OSGeo applies and we get the results of Google selection, we can
set up a wiki page with shared ideas.

All the best for HOT team for its first GSoC!

Kind regards,

Anne

I don't have edit permissions in the above page, of course. So, an idea: implementing the p-median location model. If I understand all of the existing network-analysis modules, there is no way to get this done in GRASS currently.

Yes, you have:

"To edit this wiki, you need to login with an OSGeo Userid;"

Please edit directly,

Hi,

Not sure if the GSoC deadline is today (18.02.) or on Friday (20.02.), so I am just dropping some ideas...

Can last years project ideas be recirculated / reused? Here I am mainly thinking of three things:

1) The "Web-based GUI for GRASS GIS" which would be a great thing to have. >From last years discussion I remember security issues, which might be handled if one focuses on a RStudio Server like approach with registered users only(?)...

2) Another valuable thing would be to continue the excellent work of Matej Krejci on MetaData management. That might be extended by TGIS metadata (t.info.iso), CSW-T support, or support for external metadata catalog schemata, and moving the tools from AddOns to trunk (?)...

3) Finally, also last years idea of "GRASS GIS locations created from public data" might be revived in the light of the current discussion on startup procedures?

Cheers
Stefan
