The document describes a new web interface built to provide public access to agricultural and land-use databases for climate smart agriculture. The interface was built using JavaScript to generate queries from data loaded onto Google Fusion Tables. It uses a layout of Twitter Bootstrap and pages served by Django and Python. The URL for the interface is provided, as well as information on forthcoming developments including integration of aerial photos and data within search queries on the Geoportal.

14. WEB-INTERFACE:
PURPOSE: to permit public access to both the Crop [distribution] database
and the Change database.
HOW IT WAS BUILT:
Data was loaded on Google fusion tables.
We used JavaScript to generate the queries from the tables
- And to populate the dropdowns and the map queries.
The layout uses twitter bootstrap and the pages are being served by Django and Python.
15. Where to find it:
URL (please wait 2 weeks): http://gsl.worldagroforestry.org/ccafs
Data will be hosted independently World Agroforestry Center Geoscience Lab Geoportal:
http://geoportal.worldagroforestry.org/
Forthcoming developments:
Integration of actual aerial photos (2013) and associated APS data within search queries,
and within the Geoportal so that you may see what the interpreters saw.
