Security Developments in 2.1

Security Management at the feature level (record in DBMS) read and write filtering

Hide sensible attributes

Discriminate visible areas on a per-user basis

Rules for services and layers

Server side framework available, open source implementation needed!



GeoRepository


RESTful Configuration

Programmatic configuration of layers via REST calls

Workspaces

DataStores/CoverageStores

Layers and Styles

Exposing internal configuration to remote clients

Ajax-JavaScript friendly

“Core” Module since 2.1

Integrated Security

Admin credentials required for modifications


WFS

Formats:

GML 2, 3.1 e 3.2

GeoRSS, GeoJSON

Shapefile (zipped)

OGR (configurable)

Extensions

CQL

WFS 1.0 with on-the-fly reprojection

Refactor Ongoing!

GFOSS DAY 2011, Foggia

WMS

Dissemination of Maps

Fusing raster and vector data seamlessly

With styling!

WMS 1.1.1 and 1.3 support

INSPIRE!

SLD

Basic support for SLD 1.1 and SE 1.1

Full support for SLD 1.0

Many rendering extensions available!

Integration with GeoWebCache


KML/KMZ

TEMPORAL SERIES

KML EXTRUDE KML SUPEROVERLAY


Advanced Projection Handling

Management of dateline Change and map-wrapping

Cutting un-reprojectable geometries


Raster Symbolizer

65536 Colors

256 Colors

Raw Data


Rendering transformations

On-the-fly data transformations

Calling WPS processes from SLD docs

Optimized for performance


Rendering transformations

Point feature extraction from two band raster data (e.g. Wind(u,v))

Computation of direction and module from SLD


ImageIO-Ext Support

JAI ImageIO Extension

Plugins:

BigTiff

netCDF-CF, GriB1

MatFile 5

HDF4

JP2000 (Kakadu)

GDAL 1.7.3

GDAL integration via ImageIO-ext

JPEG2000,MrSID, ECW

BigTIFF, ERDAS Image, HDF4


GeoWebCache Integration

GeoServer

GeoWebCache

Persistent raster/KML tile cache

Direct calls to GeoServer rendering engine

Support for layers modified through WFT-T

Support for various tile protocols

GMap, Gearth

OpenLayers, VEarth, Bing

Speed-up factor 10/100

Disk quota support


Improved Raster Reprojection

Raster reprojection complex process

Idea:

try to approximate the overall transformation with a simpler one, either a single affine transformation or a piecewise composition of them (grid warp)

Ability to specify threshold for error acceptance

Iterative approach (local optimization)

Trade off between speed and precision

SQL Parametric Views

SQL View as a GeoServer Layer

No need to actually creating a view in the database

View can be parametric

WMS and WFS allow parameter substitution

….&request=GetMap&viewparams=low:2000000;high:5000000

Default values for parameters

Validation with regular expressions


Improved Clustering

New parameters to allow multiple GeoServers to work against the same network shared data directory

Per server log file location

Disabling GWC meta store

Disabling GWC disk quota management

GeoWebCache Enhancements

disable the embedded GWC completely,

hide the embedded GWC to the public

keep the embedded GWC only for fast layer seeding

only one GWC at a time is allowed to write on disk


Virtual Services

Expose multiple OGC service endpoints per installation

One virtual service per workspace

Expose only layers defined in such workspace

Use cases:

Provide clients with focused/theme centered data sets

Provide each department of a single organization with its own set of services

Limitations:

Single administrator for the whole server

Service metadata (point of contacts and the like) still configured centrally


WMS* Cascading

GetMap and GetFeatureInfo Cascading

Support for reprojection on-the-fly

GUI based mass import of remote layers

TODO: Securing unsecure WMS Services


WPS*

WPS 1.0

Official Extension

Raster and Vector data support

High performance processes development (raster/vector statistics, raster/vector format conversions and more)

Integrated WPS

Automatic publishing of results

Embedding processes into SLD styles

Reuse processes as rendering transformations


WPS*

Deficiencies

No support for asynchronous requests

Missing request limits enforcements (e.g. input/output maximum dimensions)

Wish list:

Scripting (Jython, GeoScript)

Sextante, IDL, JGrass (Grass?) integration

Improved robustness

Jiffle (jai-tools) based raster algebra

Create new layers as dynamic WPS processes (computing data on the fly as requested)


25 Novembre, 2011

Image Server*

Turning GeoServer into an Image Server

Serving pure Imagery

No geo-reference need/available/(would make sense!)

Special Coordinate Reference Systems defined

Interoperability with WMS clients

Respecting EPSG conventions

EPSG:404000

See here

Improved support for data with

bad/missing geo-reference!


http://geo-solutions.blogspot.com/2011/05/developers-corner-turning-geoserver.html

Aggregating data store


N layers, remote or local, sharing the same structure

Aggregating store puts them together dynamically, the client wil think there is just one layer

Parallel data fetching

Can be configured to tolerates temporarily unreachable data sources

GeoServer in da Cloud

Standing Cloud

Admin-Free Cloud Infrastructure

Paas from Amazon, GoGrid, Linode, etc…

Pay per use

Elastic resources at hand

GeoServer SaaS

Deploy and admin with UI

No sysadmin skills

Shell available for braves!

Single CQL filter with WMS:

DWITHIN( the_geom, collectGeometries( queryCollection('roads', 'the_geom', 'INCLUDE') ), 200, meters)


WMS Animator

Controlled via aparam/avalues couples

Generates multiple frames through multiple GetMap requests
