In the past weeks 52°North has updated the licenses of two projects to facilitate their usage by switching over to a non-copyleft license. The project 52n-commons-xml was switched completely to the Apache Software License Version 2.0. The internal API and dependent code from the 52°North WPS project was also moved to the Apache 2.0 license. The implementation of this API, however remains under GPL v2. We hope this will allow more users to integrate our work into their architectures and source code projects. Below is a short description of why and how we did this.more >

As mentioned in my previous blog post, this project aims to add some new features to the enviroCar Android application. The app already contains features which display a car’s CO2 emission and speed. So in the first phase of my summer of code, I focused on modifying the existing dashboard and localization.more >

This ILWIS Mobile project is one of the Google Summer of Code projects hosted by 52°North. The project was introduced in an introductory blog. In this blog I will give a little update. I spent the first month following courses for my studies and got acquainted with the tools (Qt with QML/Java Script and C++) and the project. In the second part of the project (July and August), I will carry out the actual realization, which will culminate in the Gatherer app. I will elaborate on both.more >

Sensor Data Access for Rasdaman – Mid Term Blog Post

The first goal for the Sensor Data Access for Rasdaman project was to implement a JDBC driver for Rasdaman and to create a Hibernate dialect, which uses the JDBC driver to connect Rasdaman as a data storage backend to the 52°North Sensor Observation Service (SOS). This was the solution we came up with for the first part and we think this was a good choice, because now, at the mid term evaluation, we have a JDBC driver and a Hibernate dialect – both of which support multidimensional array queries.

Even though I will summarize the project’s status, you can find a more detailed description about the project’s evolution on the Sensor Data Access for Rasdaman wiki page.
