In continuation to #361, do you think we can consider to make use of Source Cooperative to disseminate our Global Elevation Tiles?

Let'me know what you think!

Now I am in!

I communicated with the Source Cooperative and received the following generous offer:

the offer

This sounds like a great dataset. We are excited to host it on Source Cooperative.

Would you like to be hosting it under an organization account? If so, I can get that set up for you. Would you like the organization to be "nasadem" or something else? Once you confirm this, I will create the organization and add your user name as the owner.

Please also send along:

• The human-readable name for your organization (e.g. Radiant Earth).
• A brief description of your organization that will be displayed on your profile.

draft response

I am thinking about responding as below.

• organization account: smartmaps
• human readable name: UN Smart Maps Group
• description: Domain Working Group 7 of the UN Open GIS Initiative. We keep web maps open and test new technologies.

I consulted with co-chairs of UN Open GIS Initiative by e-mail.

• Maria congratulated our work with a comment: Radiant Earth is an excellent choice.
• Ki-Joune congratulated our work.
• Josep congratulated our work.

I also received an e-mail from the Source Cooperative that they have kindly created our organization account.

I will be uploading the PMTiles file soon!

I started uploading. The file is as big as 185GB.

I close this as successfully completed!
