GeoHydra

Geospatial MetaData ToolKit for use as a GeoHydra head.

Note that some of the functionality in GeoHydra is now migrated to our automated robot suite at https://github.com/sul-dlss/gis-robot-suite.

Setup

Core requirements, with versions as-tested:

  • ArcGIS 10.2
  • GeoNetwork 2.8 (optional for metadata management)
  • GEOS 3.3
  • GeoServer 2.2
  • OpenGeoPortal 1.2
  • PostGIS 2.0
  • PostgreSQL 9.2
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)
  • Ruby 1.9

If needed, configure host to use Ruby 1.9.3:

% rvm_path=$HOME/.rvm rvm-installer --auto-dotfiles
% source $HOME/.bashrc
% cd geohydra
% rvm use 1.9.3@geohydra --create
% rvm rvmrc create

To install the native extensions to Ruby pg:

# yum install postgresql92-devel
% gem install pg -- --with-pg_config=/usr/pgsql-9.2/bin/pg_config 

You need to customize your configuration parameters like so (see the config/environments/example.rb first):

% $EDITOR config/environments/development.rb

Run setup:

% bundle install
% bundle exec rake spec
% bundle exec rake yard

Utilities

Assemble all your metadata and data as described in Data Wrangling into the stage directory /var/geomdtk/current/stage. The utilities will use /var/geomdtk/current/workspace as the output folder, akin to /dor/workspace.

Caveats: to enable logging for the Rest client, use

% RESTCLIENT_LOG=stdout bundle exec ...

Preparing stage

To assemble the workspace, populate the geohydra.stage directory with druid directories which contain the data as described in the Data Wrangling section below.

To generate the geoOptions.json files which contain inspections of the Shapefiles:

% bin/geohydra build_stage_options

To ingest ArcGIS *.shp.xml files and transform into ISO 19139 files

% bin/geohydra ingest_arcgis

To package up the .shp files into .zip files:

% bin/geohydra assemble_data

Preparing workspace with assembly

To load the workspace and generate metadata files from the stage, use:

% bin/geohydra assemble

If you're using a gazetteer, then post-process the MODS records with:

% bin/geohydra assemble_placenames

To project all Shapefiles into EPSG:4326 (WGS84), as needed:

% bin/geohydra derive_wgs84 druid1...

Accessioning

To upload the druid metadata to DOR:

% bin/geohydra accession druid1 [druid2 druid3...]

Upload workspace files to lyberservices-prod:/dor/assembly:

% cd /var/geomdtk/current/workspace
% rsync -av ./ lyberadmin@lyberservices-prod:/dor/assembly/

Use Argo to initiate the assemblyWF.

To upload the druid packages to PostGIS, you will need shp2pgsql then use:

% bin/geohydra loader_postgis druid1 [druid2 druid3...]

Then, login to GeoServer and import the data layers from PostGIS

% bin/geohydra sync_geoserver_metadata

To upload the druid packages to GeoServer use OpenGeo's Import Data feature. Or if you need an automated tool see bin/loader.rb.

To upload the OpenGeoPortal Solr documents, use:

% bin/geohydra solr_indexer

Data Wrangling

Step 1: Preparing for stage

The file system structure will initially look like the following (see Consul page for a description) where the temp files for the shapefiles are all hard links to reduce space requirements: This is pre-stage:

zv925hd6723/
  temp/
    geoOptions.json
    OGWELLS.dbf
    OGWELLS.prj
    OGWELLS.shp
    OGWELLS.shp.xml
    OGWELLS.shx

The geoOptions.json contain meta-metadata about the package, including the druid, geometry type, and filename. These files can be generated using bin/build_stage_options.rb but it requires manual supervision.

{ "druid":"cg716wc7949", 
  "geometryType":"Raster", 
  "filename":"world_admin1.tif" }

Step 2: Staged

Once staged, the data look like this:

zv925hd6723/
  content/
    data.zip
    preview.jpg
  temp/
    geoOptions.json
    OGWELLS-iso19110.xml
    OGWELLS-iso19139.xml

Step 3: Assembly

Then at the end of assembly processing -- see above prior to accessioning -- it will look like in your workspace:

zv925hd6723/
  metadata/
    contentMetadata.xml (generated later by accessioning scriptie)
    descMetadata.xml
    geoMetadata.xml
  content/
    data.zip
    data_ESRI_4326.zip (optionally)
    preview.jpg
    some-other-file.ext (optionally)
  temp/
    iso19139.xml
    ogpSolr.xml
    spatialSolr.xml
