The central component in any enterprise open source GIS is a PostgreSQL/PostGIS database that integrates with QGIS. At LunaGeo, we design many databases for clients in many different sectors, such as telecommunications, archaeology, agriculture, and environmental consulting. Although no two databases are identical, there are three basic spatial database designs that we tend to use,…

Local governments are increasingly migrating to open source GIS. By combining QGIS, PostGIS, and Geoserver, staff are able to complete all required tasks with minimal overhead costs. Without licence restrictions, local governments are able to centralize all GIS data, put GIS on every desk, and control data access through a robust permission system and data…

Multiuser editing is a fundamental requirement for an enterprise GIS and it is easily achievable with an open source GIS stack. In its simplest form, multiuser editing includes the ability to define various users or groups within an organization and grant certain types of permissions for each, such as read-only, editing, or administration rights. It…

Canadian companies, organizations, and governments use a wide variety of GIS software for field data collection, desktop analysis, cartography, remote sensing, multi-user editing, and long-term storage. Increasingly, many are migrating to free and open source (FOSS) GIS software as a viable alternative to proprietary software. To assist those considering FOSS GIS, this coast-to-coast-to-coast webinar tour…
