What?
EDINA runs services primarily for the UK education sector. However, it is increasingly trying to make
its services open and available to everyone.
In this Presentation we will look at some of the services that EDINA run that you can access and
what you might do with them and some other “Open” geo-tools.

ShareGeo
Create maps or perform spatial analysis

Openstream
Stream map to a GIS or Google Earth or embed the map in your website using the API.
Web Mapping Service (WMS) of OS OpenData

Openstream
Stream maps at a variety of scales with appropriate detail on
each
Offers an alternative to OSM. Advantages and disadvantages –
discuss.

Openstream
Great way of streaming maps into a GIS, in this case QGIS.

Unlock
Unlock Text – feed in a body of text and Unlock will associate places from it. It uses fuzzy logic to disambiguate places with the same name
Web API that provides geographic reference to place names.

Putting it all together…….
What if we want to take some Open data and make it available for others to view it over the internet?
There are plenty of tools to help you do this and you don’t need to be programmer or GIS expert to achieve it either.
Lets find out how……
![Page 22: EDINA's Open Geo-Services](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022013111/54c122064a7959c8418b4581/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Putting it all together…….
We are going to make a map that shows the location of wind farms around the UK. We could just post the image we saw earlier, but that doesn’t allow the user to interact at all, they cannot zoom or query the data.
![Page 23: EDINA's Open Geo-Services](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022013111/54c122064a7959c8418b4581/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Putting it all together…….
Another shameless plug, but an example of the useful data that is in ShareGeo Open ready to be used.
