Abstract

In the context of the project KOGGE an Open-Source Spatial data portal based on GeoNetwork is being developed. Firstly, this portal supports the project-internal data exchange in an OGC and INSPIRE conform way. Secondly, it will be used for civic participation. With the integration of thesauri there is a comfortable data search interface available. To animate users to contribute to the portal the effort of data-adding is reduced massively using metadata templates. Furthermore, these templates guarantee the compliance with ISO standards for spatial data. To avoid duplicate datasets from other spatial data portals the GeoNetwork harvesting technology is used. The portal also offers the possibility to view and edit spatial data by making use of web services (WMS, WFS and WPS). The portal is also used to involve the citizens of Rostock in the planning and management process of urban waters. The user will be able to view project results and comment actual hydrological developments. Also an integration of volunteered geographic information with social media is planned.
