For this task, you need to write a tutorial (step-by-step instructions) that can be used by schools to teach students how to use GeoServer and display a WMS layer with OpenLayers.

What needs to be done:

• You will need to install GeoServer and load a new layer.
• Use any open data file (e.g. from your cities open data portal or the World Bank portal) for this task.
• Implement a basic web map with OpenLayers and display the GeoServer layer as a Web Map Service (WMS).
• Write a tutorial on the process followed.

Helpful resources:

• http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/gettingstarted/shapefile-quickstart/index.html
• http://openlayers.org/en/latest/examples/wms-image.html

Submit the link to your repository on Github that contains the following:

• The code for your web map
• README.md with the tutorial
• Screenshots of the process followed
• Use your username as the workspace in GeoServer.
