Hi folks,
I've a GIS and CMS question to pose. What open source CMS do folks use to organize project
website(s) and web GIS applications?
We are currently using Plone as our CMS for project collaboration and web GIS (standard MapServer +
Postgres/PostGIS and PHP/mapscript front end). GIS app integration relies on iframes (ugh).
In addition, we have not been able to get much user participation in content creation from many of
our project partners despite repeated user training sessions etc. This might be a Plone thing (too
complex?) or a cultural issue (I'm not a web developer, why would should I participate if some web
guru can do it better?)
Are there alternatives that we should consider that could integrate tighter with our existing
MapServer apps and might address our user complexity hesitance? We are aware of PrimaGIS for Plone
but have not gone beyond some limited initial testing.
I realize I haven't specified any of our other requirements, but I just want a short list of
alternatives to Plone with web GIS integration potential. Thanks for any suggestions you might have...
Apologies for multi-posting, but wanting to get a diverse set of responses...
Jesse
