[Marketing] geo for all page

Committees Marketing
1

Hey folks,

I was reading this article [1] which brought me to this open source for geo fact sheet [2] which then linked to the geoforall page [3]. The page is kinda strage as it starts off with content then goes white and seems to be missing content.

Whom should I let know about this?

Also, int he fact sheet [2] they link to the geo for all page [3] suggesting it has educational material available. So I started to look for a getting started page and could not seem to find one, but did find the resources area [4].

Should we have a “getting started” page?

Hi Guido,

There should be an OpenLayers map there (where the whitespace is now) AFAIR on your [3] above.

Might be best to highlight this on the GeoForAll mailing list -but I am not sure who can fix the map issue.

We have reached out to our community for help with the maps multiple times from the inception of this website. Because we are a mapping community everyone thinks someone else will do it so the issue tickets remain open :slight_smile:

Great sequence of research.
