[Fiware-finodex-coaching] Location Plarform GE - where ?

[Tania Petsouka]

Hi Pasquale,

thank you for your answer.
It seems that GIS Data Provider is suitable for 3D objects (we do not have
such in our project) and it's server side.
POI data provider is for storing and retrieving georeferenced data through
spatial queries. We have alredy implemented such functionality in our
project.
We planned to use Location Platform in order to confirm user's location (on
client side), in order to have realible crowdsourced information.
Since we don't have enough time right now, and Location Platform is
inactive we are thinking of making such location confirmation with 3rd
party tools.
Is this a problem as it concerns FIWARE usage?
(I am reminding you that we were planning to use 3 more envirofi specific
enablers that turned out to be inactive as well and we replaced their
functionality with 3rd party and our own components).

Thanks
