  1. I've got the ball rolling on arc2ogm: github.com/spilth/arc2ogm

    Trying to embrace the "soft" in software - it's not perfect and changes over time.

  2. In an effort to throw caution (and perfection) to the wind, I whipped up a quick blog post (and blog section) about creating a tool for crawling #ESRI ArcGIS REST Servers and cataloging them using #OpenGeoMetadata's Aardvark format to ingest into a #GeoBlacklight instance.

    Essentially the goal is to make public GIS data easy to find, filter and access

  3. Current idea I'm toying around with working on: grab all the public ArcGIS REST services out there (yes, I know where to find this), recursively crawl each one and convert them to #OpenGeoMetadata Aardvark files to ingest into a #GeoBlacklight server (that I totally don't have the money to host myself right now) so they're easy to browse and search for by various attributes/spatial data.

    Is anybody already doing this? Would this be useful?
