[Feature Request] Track galaxy server locations

Open hexylena opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Not of the server but of the center managing it I guess is the important thing to show.

We have some data here: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1r8LJy6la-JeIrg23aZjpwVNjJDE&ll=2.486940839176235%2C0&z=2

This came out of the small galaxy admins meeting with @lldelisle last week

  • [ ] add lat/lon field for servers
  • [ ] collect reported lat/lon fields into a geojson file, e.g. how GTN is doing it: https://github.com/galaxyproject/training-material/pull/3957/
  • [ ] add a map somewhere

@hexylena is there any private galaxy instance listed on the galaxy-hub?

There are some that are effectively closed, e.g.:

comments:
  - "To register for a CLIMB group account, you must:"
  - "1. Be a UK academic or public sector worker working on microbial genomics"
  - "2. Run your own research group (i.e. be a principal investigator)"
  - "2. Have a .ac.uk (or .gov.uk or .nhs.uk email account)"
  - "4. Agree to our service terms and conditions"
  - "The project is supported by three world class Medical Research Fellows, a comprehensive training program and two newly refurbished Bioinformatics facilities in both Warwick and Swansea."
  - "The Galaxy component of CLIMB is based on GVL. CloudBridge, and CloudMan infrastructure."

but I don't think anything truly private. (Though no reason not to include those!) It'd be fine to mention them, and just mention it in the quotas or comments sections
