Si querés conocer nuestro sitio web con detalle técnico, te recomendamos que visites: https://w3techs.com/sites/info/arboladourbano.com https://www.similartech.com/websites/arboladourbano.com https://www.cubdomain.com/site/arboladourbano.com Si bien acá presentamos nuestra dinámica en forma lineal, es muy frecuente que a veces utilicemos solo algunos de estos servicios o que volvamos hacia atrás porque se nos ocurrió una manera mejor de hacer las cosas. Esperamos que sea de utilidad para aclarar las dudas que tengas y, oportunamente, te puedas interiorizar en este apasionante mundo de árboles y mapas en el que nos encontramos. Que lo disfrutes!!! PD: esta lista pretende ser exhaustiva, pero no está completa!!! Iremos agregando nuevos servicios a medida que los vayamos incorporando a la base de datos de este sitio web, que por cierto, deben ser aprobados por los moderadores.

What is CKAN?

CKAN is aimed at data publishers (national and regional governments, companies and organizations) wanting to make their data open and available. CKAN was developed by the non-profit Open Knowledge Foundation and is today overseen and managed by the CKAN Association.

CKAN is built with Python on the backend and Javascript on the frontend, and uses The Pylons web framework and SQLAlchemy as its ORM. Its database engine is PostgreSQL and its search is powered by SOLR. It has a modular architecture that allows extensions to be developed to provide additional features such as harvesting or data upload.

CKAN uses its internal model to store metadata about the different records, and presents it on a web interface that allows users to browse and search this metadata. It also offers a powerful API that allows third-party applications and services to be built around it.
