django-dh-map

This is an package mainly for in-house usage. There are a lot of admin packages used that might not work well in your environment (ex: django-rq instead of celery for background jobs). Its primary goal is to help springboard new Digital Humanities mapping projects with a decent amount of flexability.

If you cannot directly use this package, consider forking and customizing for your own usage/environment or just use it for inspiration.

Requirements

gdal, gdal-tools for postgis and overhead tile generation
ffmpeg for video resolution and thumbnail generation
libmagic for image processing
redis for background job support
Assumes postgres database with gis (postgis)
