http://click-that-hood.com/europe“Click that Hood” is a game based on open data, built by Code for America’s 2013 Louisville fellowship team.The player is challenged to identify the polygon of a named “neighborhood”.We would like to use it as an introduction to fun use of data and to find out:

> Where are you from?

Getting to know each other

The idea behind the INSPIRE Hackathon

Hackathon> from „hack“ and „marathon“> aka hack day, hackfest or codefest> "hack" is used in the sense of exploratory

programming

Programmers come together to collaborate on software projects

> …to meet

> …to learn

> …to create something

> …to have fun

Focus on INSPIRE> use INSPIRE data to create something

The idea behind the INSPIRE Hackathon

Con terra invited staff members and “Code for Münster“ for an INSPIRE Hackathon> to see what happens when a group of developers are encouraged to play around INSPIRE data

http://codeformuenster.org/

“Code for Münster“ is a regional group which is part of ”Code for Germany”. The goal of the program is to promote developments in transparency, open data, and civic technology.

Focus on INSPIRE in a local context> A cross-border context would have been interesting in a more international setting

The Hackathon took place August 31, 2016, 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. in Münster, Germanny

Our INSPIRE Hackathon

During the Hackathon:1. “Pitch”: Participants suggest ideas

> a problem statement, the solution, the data and the skills needed to make it happen

2. Participants form teams based on their interests and skills

3. Collaborative work on projects

4. Wrap-up session

Before the Hackathon: Preparation - finding ideas and data> con terra started with a brain storming session a few weeks before the event

> Volunteers searched for INSPIRE data to use for implementing the ideas

App for „good excuses“Team 1

MarcOpen Data ExpertModeratorLogistics (drinks, food)

App for „good excuses“: Design

General> Simple smartphone App without a map

Data sources> Air Quality, Bio Weather,

Pollution from Industrial Facilities

Functionality> LBS - current health-relevant environmental data

> Interpretation of values and definitionof comprehensible „excuses“

> Link to a map App

Geo-IT> ArcGIS, FME Server, map.apps

Preparing DataSearch and Discovery

The goal of the INSPIRE Hackathon> We want to use INSPIRE Data –

maybe enriched by additional open data

Key data topic> health-relevant environmental data

Researching data in different INSPIRE metadata catalogues> … with different user interfaces

> … with different search functionalities

> … with different metadata content

That‘s why we prepared con terra‘sSDI Solution> Connect different

INSPIRE cataloguesto 1 application

> Smart Index Search

> Refine Resultsvia Faceted Filter

> Add Service

> Download Data

Data Topics> Air Quality - ozone

> Pollution from Facilities

> Weather Warnings

View Service URLs> INSPIRE View, WMS,

ArcGIS Services

Download Service URLs> Atom Feed, WFS,

Linked File, REST

> Websites

SDI Solution – LIVE demo

What we have accomplished in 4 hours

> Create the App icons

> Design the website template (based on flatfy –Free flat and responsive HTML5 Template)

> Prepare data with ArcMap and FME Desktop

> Setup ArcGIS for Server map.Services

> Setup FME Process and FME Server REST Service to identifythe relevant information at the requested position and generate the answer

> Configure a simple map.apps App (facilities causing pollution)

UBA Air Quality Data (AQD) - ozone (O3)[what we wanted to do]> Download AQD datastreams - D (Stations),

E1a (validated single values per hour) via INSPIRE PDD Service (*.gml)

> Setup an FME Process:Read GML, find next station, identify currentozone value at this station

> Problem: data not up to dateValidated ozone values (every hour a day) from 2014Any alternatives ??

UBA Air Quality ozone (O3)[What we have done]> Request all AQD stations measuring ozone values

via REST Service and save all Stations with current O3 values as csv-file

> Prepare the station data with ArcMap: geo-referencing stations(point data) and convert to area data (Voronoj-Interpolation)

> Setting up an ArcGIS for Server map.service to identify nearest station (id)

> Setup FME Process:Request Request current Air Quality Data (Substance, Data_Type, Date & Time) via REST Service, parse the result and get current O3 value

> Classification of the results and definition of comprehensible answers

> Publish FME Process as FME Rest Service

DWD – Bio Weather> Request current Bio Weather via

INSPRE View Service and get the currentimpacts on hypertension, asthma, rheumatism(positive / no influence, low / high health hazard)

> Parse the result

> Publish FME Process asFME Rest Service

UBA Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR)> Download PRTR Data as sqllite DB or

Esri Geodatabase

> Setup FME Process:Read the PRTR sqllite DB or Esri Geodabase and find PRTR industrial facilities within 10km

> Publish FME Process as FME Rest Service

Linked map App> Polluting facilities CO2 und NO2 / NOx

– all over Europe

> Navigation by „Locate Me“ (current location),a special Location or industrial facility name

> Layer selection

> Legend

> „Feature Info“

An educational game to study geography

Geo Quiz

Team> 5 Code for Münster developers

> 1 con terra developer (web/mobile)

> 1 con terra FME expert

> 1 con terra project manager (SDI)

New idea for a game> The “click that hood“ game would have been too easy to implement

Geo Quiz: Team

An educational game to study geography:> The player is prompted to locate a place on a map

> The distance to the correct location is calculated and displayed

> The player can play until the distance add up to 1000 km

Geo Quiz

We needed „places“ for the players to locate INSPIRE Geographical NamesINSPIRE Geoportal: Search for „Geographische Namen“ (in German), filter “Origin“

Searching for Data: Geographical Names

WFS for Germany

Suitable data from the BKG (Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy)

Searching for Data: Licensehttp://inspire-geoportal.ec.europa.eu/resources/INSPIRE-e70f8705-e89d-11e2-9634-52540004b857_20160909-114543/services/1/PullResults/2751-2800/datasets/36/

Searching for Data: License

…(GeoJSON)

Islands(GeoJSON)

Geographical Names: Point shape (250 MB) with features of different types (cities, airports, islands, …)

Input data and transformation using FME

Cities(GeoJSON)

http://sg.geodatenzentrum.de/web_download/gn/gn250/gk3/shape/gn250.gk3.shape.zip

GeoJSON> format for encoding geographic data structures

> The data was transformed with FME Desktop

Leaflet> open-source JavaScript library for interactive maps

> https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet

Esri Leaflet> set of tools for using ArcGIS services with Leaflet

> https://esri.github.io/esri-leaflet/examples/

ArcGIS Basemap> freely available map services (we used World Imagery)

Geo Quiz: Results

Lessons learned from the Hackathon

The different approaches of the Hackathon teams led to impressive results> “Excuses“-team used powerful technology to create a complex solution

> “Geo Quiz“-team used Open Source Frameworks and no own serverside technology

INSPIRE data is useful even at a local level It was surprisingly time-consuming to find suitable data It was difficult to find current data (especially daily updated measurements) A lot of data is available, that possibly would not be available without INSPIRE INSPIRE data usually needs to be processed for further use Alternative data sources (REST, shape, …) seem easier to use than INSPIRE data We are keen on trying this on a European level

… maybe next year at the INSPIRE conference?
