Content

The workshop is based on the following technologies:

  • PostGIS: the well known database, with 3D and point cloud additions
  • MapServer: a Web Map Service server
  • iTowns2: a 3D web client to display 3D data in a browser, based on WebGL, Three.js and PoTree
  • Oslandia's building server
  • LOPOCS: a point cloud server

The workshop is composed of three modules:

  • Data: importing geospatial data from different sources into a postGIS database
  • Web client: an introduction to the iTowns web application
  • Analysis: 3D analysis using postGIS and visualization of the result with iTowns

In each module, steps are marked with a number, allowing you to follow easily the whole training session.

Environment

This workshop requires a recent web browser with WebGL support and a good graphic card.

You will also need an SSH client to access the remote database.
