This is the first tagged release, and its purpose is to preserve the state of the code base at the end of my master's thesis at LSU: Creating a Public Space for Georeferencing Sanborn Maps: A Louisiana Case Study.
Specifically, this release holds the most complete integration with GeoNode/GeoServer--a core aspect of the original project, but one that is likely to be factored out or split into an independent project in the coming months.
Description
This repository consists, primarily of two custom Django apps, based on the geonode/geonode-project paradigm. One app, georeference
is designed as a standalone plugin for GeoNode that allows users to georeference Documents in the browser, turning them into Layers. The other app, loc_insurancemaps
holds the theming and custom integration with the Library of Congress Sanborn Map Collection, through its JSON API.
Dependencies
In addition to a full installation of GeoNode 3.2.1, the georeference
app requires MapServer, and its user interfaces are built with Svelte.
Documentation
Full documentation is in the docs/
directory, and (much) more information about the project as a whole is in my thesis linked above. However, a detailed installation guide does not exist at this time (but it can be furnished upon request).
