DESCRIPTION:This talk presents a case study of Inteligeo\, an adaptation of
  GeoNode for Brazilian government agencies. We'll share our journey in tam
 ing a 170TB raster dataset and other adventures in customizing open-source
  geospatial tools. We outline the experience of four agencies: The Nationa
 l Water Agency (ANA)\, the Center for the Surveillance of the Amazon (CENS
 IPAM)\, the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation (ICMBIO)\
 , and the Federal Police (PF).\n\nThe project\, which began in 2009 using 
 proprietary software\, transitioned to open-source in 2017. To address lim
 itations and support multiple agencies\, we ported Inteligeo version 4 fun
 ctionality to GeoNode\, creating Inteligeo 5 in 2022. Each agency has a un
 ique perspective: PF was involved from the start\, CENSIPAM deployed for i
 nternal use\, ANA for external use\, and ICMBIO is integrating it into the
 ir processes.\n\nWhy customize at all? Why not just use the software as it
  is? Why not develop it from scratch? There are several reasons why one sh
 ould (and shouldn't) customize\, and then there are several ways how to do
  it right once you commit to it. We share our experiences: the good and th
 e bad\, and the lessons learned\, when customizing GeoNode for the Brazili
 an government.\n\nWhy customize?\n- Get shiny new functionality!\n- Jump-s
 tart development\n- Optimize processes with tailored deployments and workf
 lows\n- Integrate with existing systems and infrastructure (authentication
 \, 170TB raster storage\, Brasil Mais imagery)\n- Comply with internal and
  government standards\n\nChallenges:\n- Non-standard deployment\n- Trainin
 g and documentation\n- Balancing customization with community support\n- S
 yncing with upstream changes\n- Managing a huge codebase with extra stuff 
 that you don't need\n\nHow to do it right (aspirational):\n- Seek sponsors
 hips (SGD/MGI\, JICA\, FINEP\, INTERPOL)\n- Selfless and selfish reasons t
 o contribute back to the community\n- Have a clear strategy for upstream s
 yncing\n- Keep it simple. Minimize customization to essential features\n- 
 Design independent\, standalone components\n- Engage upstream developers w
 hen possible\n\nOur experience is particularly relevant to the Amazon regi
 on\, as the tool directly supports the Federal Police surveillance and con
 servation efforts in the area and is being integrated by the agencies of t
 he other speakers.\n\nWe welcome feedback and collaboration ideas from the
  FOSS4G community during the Q&A session!

DESCRIPTION:This talk presents case studies of deploying GeoNode\, an open-
 source geospatial content management system\, in production environments w
 ithin two Brazilian government agencies: the Geological Survey of Brazil (
 SGB) and the Brazilian Federal Police (PF). We'll explore how these agenci
 es have successfully implemented and customized GeoNode to meet their spec
 ific needs\, addressing common challenges in large-scale FOSS4G deployment
 s.\n\nKey points we'll cover:\n\n1. SGB's approach:\n   - Developing a Hel
 m chart for automated GeoNode 4 installation on Red Hat OpenShift\n   - Ad
 dressing security requirements like rootless execution and random UID supp
 ort\n   - Implementing autoscaling for most components based on CPU and me
 mory utilization\n   - Exploring cluster implementation of GeoServer for i
 mproved scalability\n\n2. PF's customizations:\n   - Creating a dedicated 
 "inteligeo-deploy" repository for enhanced deployment features\n   - Imple
 menting centralized configuration and logging\n   - Improving security by 
 separating credentials and using Podman instead of Docker\n   - Integratin
 g with internal systems and scheduling data updates\n\nWe'll discuss the c
 hallenges faced\, solutions implemented\, and lessons learned from both ap
 proaches. These case studies demonstrate that FOSS4G solutions like GeoNod
 e are ready for production use in government agencies\, providing flexibil
 ity\, scalability\, and security.\n\nBy sharing our experiences\, we aim t
 o help other organizations successfully deploy GeoNode and other FOSS4G so
 lutions in production environments. We welcome questions and discussions o
 n best practices for large-scale FOSS4G implementations.

DESCRIPTION:This talk explores how the Brazilian Federal Police leverages F
 OSS4G to integrate and visualize data from Brasil MAIS\, a multi-million d
 ollar environmental monitoring program\, using our custom-built Inteligeo 
 platform.\n\nBrasil MAIS monitors over 2.9 million km² weekly - about 34%
  of Brazil's vast 8.5 million km² territory. To manage the resulting mass
 ive amounts of satellite imagery and environmental change alerts\, we deve
 loped Inteligeo\, a GeoNode-based solution currently in production at the 
 Federal Police and in various stages of adoption across multiple governmen
 t agencies.\n\nWe'll discuss:\n1. Building Inteligeo on FOSS4G principles 
 (GeoNode\, PostGIS\, GDAL\, GeoServer\, FastAPI) to enable seamless data i
 ntegration across government agencies.\n2. Implementing user-friendly tool
 s for non-specialists and integrating with Gov.br authentication.\n3. Usin
 g FastAPI for complex integrations\, such as streamlining access to the XY
 Z data provider for Brasil Mais.\n4. Technical challenges in scaling Brasi
 l MAIS to handle 46 million monthly tile views and serve 500+ public insti
 tutions and 100\,000+ users.\n5. The crucial sponsorship of the Ministry o
 f Management and Innovation in Public Services (MGI) in developing Intelig
 eo 5 since 2021\, and their plans for its independent use.\n\nBrasil MAIS 
 has already demonstrated significant impact\, contributing to over R$16 bi
 llion ($2.8 billion USD) in environmental crime-related fines and asset fr
 eezes. While Inteligeo is still ramping up adoption\, it aims to compound 
 this impact by enhancing the efficiency of data utilization. We anticipate
  measuring Inteligeo-specific results in the coming year\, showcasing how 
 FOSS4G solutions can amplify the effectiveness of large-scale environmenta
 l monitoring programs.\n\nWe'll conclude by examining how this integration
  serves as a model for similar global initiatives in environmental managem
 ent and welcome input from the FOSS4G community on further improvements.
