T.E.R:R.A.I.N. is a system that allows community groups to digitize their resources and store spatial data in an online repository. It was created to help community groups: 1) map local data that is unique to the community and not available elsewhere, and 2) enter data online and link to other applications. A pilot project involved developing features for an open-source digital repository software used to map plants in Pukekura Park with data entered by students and the public. The system is designed to be free, open source software that is customizable, easy to install and use, with support from a large developer community.

- Taranaki Educational Resource: Research, Analysis and Information Network
- “ Community groups have access to many forms of data and information that are qualities of the community itself and are therefore not available from any source other than from the community. Traditional ecological knowledge, local spirituality, aesthetic and amenity values are relevant examples” said Thomas Meredith ( McGill University, Montreal, Canada), a researcher in “ democracy and participation in environmental decision-making”. In order to be of value to planners and authorities, as well as researchers, the natural history community groups in Taranaki devised a way to make available their information. It is digitised, stored in an on-line repository and displayed as on-line maps.

- Digital repository of FoPP Links material from the kete – the pigeon is actually held in kete, not on the website. It displays easily. Load material once, use many times.
- There are various ways to provide a wider research net – some shown here.
- $120,000 for the entire project
- FREE Small budgets limited incomes from highly contested funds. Large amount of energy goes into fund raising. Hard to plan ahead, important not to over commit to annual costs. Many competing priorities for funds OPEN SOURCE Highly Modular, specialist add ons, no wasted functionality Inter-operability standards Supportive mindset SOFTWARE No upgrade fees, frequent updates, nightly builds Easy download and install no unlock codes. Quicker response to bugs
- It was once said, "one person fighting for their land is worth ten paid soldiers"
- A Database Management System ( DBMS ) is a set of computer programs that controls the creation, maintenance, and the use of the database in a computer platform or of an organization and its end users . ArcSDE Spatial Database Engine (SDE) is one of ESRI ‘s products which enables spatial data to be stored, managed, and quickly retrieved from leading commercial database management systems like Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, Sybase, IBM DB2, and Informix.
