Developer’s Corner: Cartographic Rendering Improvements in GeoServer

Blog ‐ Posted on 01.09.2015 by Andrea Aime

Dear reader, today we would like to share some recent improvements in GeoServer cartographich rendering, which will be useful for everybody, but great for those dealing with roads mapping. The first one is z-order control, in GeoServer 2.8 there are two new FeatureTypeStyle VendorOption allowing to control in which order the features get painted, inside a single layer, or even across layers. Here is an example from our user guide, where over and under passes, as well as rail bridges, are properly honored in the map rendering: [caption id="attachment_2397" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Z-Order Control at work with OSM Data[/caption] This is made possible...

Developer’s Corner: Improved NetCDF/GRIB support on GeoServer

Blog ‐ Posted on 27.07.2015 by simone giannecchini

Dear Readers, today we want to share some improvements we made in GeoServer in supporting NetCDF and GRIB datasets. As you know, NetCDF and GRIB are commonly used format in the Meteorological and Oceanographic (MetOc) context for observational data and numerical modeling, being a platform independent format used to represent multidimensional array-oriented scientific data. As an instance, data for air temperature, water current, wind speed computed by mathematical models across multiple dimensions, such as time, depth/elevation or physical entities measured by sensors may be served as NetCDF datasets. In the last years, we have improved the GeoTools library in such a...
