Creating a New Account

To take full advantage of all the GeoNode features you need an user account. Follow these step to create a new one.

  1. From any page in the web interface, you will see a Register link. Click that link, and the register form will appear

    Note

    The registrations in GeoNode must be open, in case you don’t see the register link then it’s not possible to register unless the administrator of the site does that for you.
