h2. About the Auroville CSR Geomatics Studio

We are a team working on geographical and related information with an engineering and scientific approach. The concept of *geomatics* is explained here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomatics.

We develop, maintain and publish data on this web site: https://gis.auroville.org.in.

h3. Team

Currently, the team consists of:

* Bala

* Giulio

* Philippe

* Raj

* Ram

* Selvarani

h3. Collaborations

Quick report of the collaborations the Geomatics Team the areas of work: see [[collaborations]].

h2. Our workflow

See [[Workflow]].

h2. Working with Gisaf

h3. Survey data

Raw survey data are contained in CSV files, typically downloaded from surveying instruments.

See more information of the process for the survey data (including a flow diagram): [[Survey data]]

h3. Categories

The categories define the types of the geographical features.

See [[Categories]]

h3. QGis: work on shapefiles

Go to [[shapefiles]].

h2. Data analysis

See [[Data analysis]]

h2. Hosting

The team is located in the CSR of Auroville.

We have setup a server for hosting the software and database. See [[CSR_server]] for technical information about the setup.

h3. Backup and restoration of the database

See [[db-support]]

h1. Access to data

h2. Connection to server directly from CSR

To connect to the server directly without going through Aurinoco server, the correct url is
http://gis.csr.av

h2. Connection to Gisaf via QGis through WFS / OGC API

This works only on QGis from version 3.14.15 onward

In the browser, click on WFS/OGC API, then right-click to create a new connection
Give a name (e.g. OGC API Qgis Gisaf)
Give the url https://gis.auroville.org.in/ogcapi

Under the WFS Options box, on Version dropdown, the default option "Maximum" works just fine
Click on OK
The list of layers will appear in the Browser under WFS/OGC API.
