Out of the box there aren't any data layers in the database. To add some, follow the steps below:

  1. From your web browser navigate to http://localhost:8000/admin
  2. Click the End_point link to be taken to the end points page
  3. Click the button "Add END_POINT +" button on the top right of the screen
  4. Enter a:
    • name
    • Org_name, used as the prefix for harvested data.
    • Url, the json feed to access the data. E.g for ArcGIS hub pages use simply append "/data.json". E.g https://geospatialcentroid-csurams.hub.arcgis.com/data.json
    • Use the '+' button to create a default publisher for the end_point
    • Choose your end_point type Supported end points include
      • DCAT (ArcGIS Hub)
      • ArcGIS Online. This uses organizational id. Note, in an academic setting this is often not a curated collection
      • CONTENTdm
      • dSPACE (not yet integrated with change management)
      • more end_point types can be created, see instructions below
    • a thumnaile url is optional
  5. Click the "SAVE" button
