GeoServer - PR PR

GeoServer is a Java-based server, built on GeoTools, that allows users to view and edit geospatial data, using the open standards set forth by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). By implementing the Web Map Service (WMS) standard, GeoServer can create maps in a variety of output formats. GeoServer also conforms to the Web Feature Service (WFS) standard, and Web Coverage Service (WCS) standard which permits the sharing and editing of the data that is used to generate the maps. GeoServer also uses the Web Map Tile Service standard to split your published maps into tiles for ease of use by web mapping and mobile applications. OpenLayers, a free mapping library, is integrated into GeoServer, making map generation quick and easy. GeoServer is a modular application with additional functionality added via extensions.[1]
