Geoinformation Enabling Toolkit (GET-IT)

(formerly RITMARE StarterKit)

If you just want to install GET-IT, it is recommended to use Ubuntu 12.04.

Prerequisites:

1. GeoNode (version 2.0.x)
2. 52 North SOS (version 4.0.0 or 4.1.0)

GeoNode Installation

Install geonode from PPA in Ubuntu 12.04:

$ sudo apt-get install python-software-properties

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:geonode/release

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get install geonode

Setup the IP address and create a superuser:

$ sudo geonode-updateip 127.0.0.1

$ geonode createsuperuser

52 North SOS Installation

Follow the instructions (for SOS version 4.x) at https://wiki.52north.org/bin/view/SensorWeb/SensorObservationServiceIVDocumentation#Installation

Just a note: GET-IT expects to find a webapp named "observations". So, before "Install and configure Tomcat", rename the 52n-sos-webapp.war into observations.war into observations.war
