Data visualisation platform (AtlantECO GeoNode)

The AtlantECO GeoNode is based on the open-source GeoNode project, a geospatial content management system (CMS) and a spatial data infrastructure (SDI) platform designed to enable sharing and collaboration of geospatial data and maps. The project aims to promote the use of geospatial data and make it more accessible to people all over the world. It does this by building on state-of-the-art, open-source geospatial web technologies and standards, supported by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGEO) and the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). As such, it can be customized to meet the needs of the AtlantECO project. The AtlantECO GeoNode was launched on April 2022 and is available at https://atlanteco-geonode.eu/. The web platform was customized to match the look and feel of the AtlantECO project website4. After some tests with the AtlantECO maps NetCDF files, data population of the AtlantECO GeoNode has kicked off in the spring of 2023 and will continue throughout the lifetime of the project, as new versions and datasets become available. The AtlantECO GeoNode aims to promote the research outputs of the project by: ● Providing a web platform that allows to search for, visualise, download and share the AtlantECO MAPSboth within the project as well as to other stakeholders. ● Providing standard OGC web services that allow to search for, visualise and download AtlantECO MAPS within common Geospatial Information System (GIS) tools (e.g. QGIS, ArcGIS) as well as scripting languages (e.g. R, Python) ● Enabling wider dissemination of AtlantECO MAPS by inclusion in other web map projects like the European Atlas of the Seas5 that support the OGC standards.
