Include a collection of Jupyter notebooks

[kalxas]

Having used Jupyter Notebooks and OSGeoLive recently in class, I believe we need to put some effort to bring back the notebooks git repository.

I think we additionally need some demos to cover geopandas and OWSLib.

We should also create a quickstart and overview document to cover Jupyter.

I can help on this, we should also reorder a little bit the existing notebooks. It could be really useful to connect external notebooks, for example GRASS has several ​notebooks

I think we additionally need some demos to cover geopandas and OWSLib.

I could work on geopandas, there are some examples ​here

For OWSLib there is something ​here, we need to review it

We should also create a quickstart and overview document to cover Jupyter.

I'm building a list of documentation ideas to improve OSGeo and OSGeoLive documentation, which I'll be pointing potential writers at for inspiration. (In particular, I'm hoping to attract writers from the Google Season of Docs initiative.)

I have a title for Jupyter, but I feel my description of what a writing task could/should be better. @lucadelu, are you in a position to improve this description? ​https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yriJoybYjsCKhprNLNGGanw8HRA5Z8GhrNrA5RjavUU/edit#heading=h.uxp9m781oud6

And would you be prepared to mentor a writer if they volunteered? If so, please add your name to the list of "People keen to take part". (I'm expecting that a buzzing community will attract more community). ​https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yriJoybYjsCKhprNLNGGanw8HRA5Z8GhrNrA5RjavUU/edit#heading=h.s584ca6y83ac

I read it, but I could not be able to improve it since it seems quiet well explained ( i just added a comment)

And would you be prepared to mentor a writer if they volunteered? If so, please add your name to the list of "People keen to take part". (I'm expecting that a buzzing community will attract more community).

I cannot be part of this activity (since I have no time to use for it), but I could spend time to improve the state of ​our notebooks git repository if we agree on what and how the notebooks should be reorganized

[camerons]

Hi Luca, in that case, would you be prepared to add a statement to the "People Keen to Help" similar to: Luca Delu: <A bit about you>. Willing to help improve (existing?) Jupyter Notebook documents in line with a developed template and writing instructions, if one is developed and committed to.

A statement such as that shows that we have the start of a community willing to sustainably build upon a tech writer's initiative, and will increase the chance of us attracting a tech writer to our project.

hi all -- now Apr19, it is an opportunity, and a necessity, to make a new structure for Notebooks; python, R and perhaps other. The repository OSGeoLive-Notebooks is actually specific to the last version of OSGeoLive 12, and therefore stale. The current, minimum install of Notebook looks like this (see attachment) .

I agree in a structure with python, R, bash, others. Another way could split by project GRASS, Scitools, R, GeoPandas..

Why notebooks in the install is so small?

We have a Jupyter notebook demo that makes some use of OWSLib and showcases WCS/WCPS queries on a rasdaman installation at CODE-DE: ​https://processing.code-de.org/rasdaman/index.html?page=demo-apps&group=client&app=jupyter-notebook-extensive

It could be adapted and added to the OSGeoLive if you think it's a good idea? Although it will be tricky to adapt the examples to work with local data.

We have a Jupyter notebook demo ...

hi misev - the notebook is now in the repo (above)

It could be adapted and added to the OSGeoLive if you think it's a good idea? Although it will be tricky to adapt the examples to work with local data.

sure - many possibilities

Hi, it looks like everything is held in several branches in ​https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/osgeolive/o13-Jupyter so we need to clean up and merge to get the notebooks ready for 13.0.

I will move current master of ​https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-Notebooks to branch v12.0 and then we can start merging Brian's work on master directly.

[kalxas]

Previous code is now included in 11.0 release tag:

​https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/osgeolive/OSGeoLive-Notebooks/releases

I have also created a 11.x branch in case someone wants to fix something in the old code:

​https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/osgeolive/OSGeoLive-Notebooks/src/branch/11.x

Master is open to start from scratch:

​https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/osgeolive/OSGeoLive-Notebooks/src/branch/master

I have only kept the intro notebooks, just in case we want to keep around.

Brian, can you please send pull requests against this git repository so we can merge your work? Thanks!
