Map options
by Morten Høfft 28 Jun '22

28 Jun '22

Hi We just added more map options to your websites. It is now possible to change map projections and change base maps. Your sites default to showing only the Mercator projection. Just as it was before. But it can now be configured to * Show Mercator, Plate Caree, Arctic and Antarctic (same projections as on GBIF.org) * A selection of differently styled base maps * Language support (e.g. Spanish or Japanese base maps) * Add satellite tiles and terrain tiles from Maptiler (requires you to get a free access key) You can read more here: Documentation: https://hp-theme.gbif-staging.org/data-exploration-config#map-options Satellite and terrain maps: https://github.com/gbif/hosted-portals/issues/229 Antarctic map as default: https://hp-antarctic.gbif-staging.org/occurrence/search/?view=MAP Feel free to reach out if you want to add more map types to your site, but aren’t sure how to go about it. Best Morten

GBIF hosted portals - please indicate your availability for a community call next week
by Mélianie Raymond 17 Jun '22

Dear all, We are happy to have recently opened GBIF's hosted portals programme<https://www.gbif.org/news/5D3ijLXMbpiZDBj0y0z1J/gbif-launches-hosted-portal…>. This builds on the success of the pilot phase - so thank you again for all your contributions! We have already received a few new applications, and we know that work is ongoing for several pilot phase teams. We'd like to have a hosted portals community call to catch up on progress and introduce the new teams. From here on, we will aim to hold these community calls about every quarter so that we can stay connected and get inspired by what others are working on. Please indicate your availability to join the community call using this doodle poll: https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/aO7gDkNa I will confirm the preferred time and provide a meeting link at the end of the week. Draft agenda: 1. Intro presentation on the progress since the pilot phase last year, and the new hosted portals programme (Melianie) 2. Round of updates from the teams represented on the call (all) 3. Presentation of recent work and new collection demo sites (Morten and Tim) Looking forward to connecting with you all.
