Geonode functionality document version V.

GeoNode is a geospatial content management system, a platform for the management and
publication of geospatial data. It brings together mature and stable open-source software projects
under a consistent and easy-to-use interface allowing non-specialized users to share data and
create interactive maps.
Data management tools built into GeoNode allow for integrated creation of data, metadata, and
map visualizations. Each dataset in the system can be shared publicly or restricted to allow
access to only specific users. Social features like user profiles and commenting and rating
systems allow for the development of communities around each platform to facilitate the use,
management, and quality control of the data the GeoNode instance contains.
It is also designed to be a flexible platform that software developers can extend, modify or
integrate against to meet requirements in their own applications.
