“Roleta para a Frente”– Test Implementation

Project Name: “Roleta para a Frente”– Test Implementation

Executive Summary
Business Need/Opportunity
The Roleta geospatial community has access to a large number of shared geospatial datasets, mainly through multiple data download sites. However, no one web location exists through which people and organizations can find and share such data. Shared web services and applications are even less accessible, and only modestly promoted as a potential shared resource. There exists in Roleta a significant opportunity to collaboratively develop a single location through which published Roleta geospatial resources can be found and shared.
Many in the community are very interested in this opportunity and have a compelling business need to see it succeed, not the least of which are the agencies that manage the biggest data distribution sites in the state. Further, the existence of a collaboratively developed Commons may eliminate the need for existing, disparate data download sites, saving several organizations from the responsibility of maintaining their own sites and upgrading them periodically.
The coordinated geospatial commons that is envisioned would greatly advance our ability to share web services in particular, by both providing a place to publish information about them and also by facilitating assessments of the reliability and trustworthiness of such web services. The increased usage of web services will produce efficiency gains for many organizations, in particular those that develop geospatial applications.
Perhaps most importantly, the Commons will provide a one stop location for a broad array of business and users in Roleta and beyond, whether professional or casual, to find and share useful resources, and will promote greater sharing
