GEOSERVER - DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION STEP BY
STEP TUTORIAL
In computing, GeoServer is an open-source server written in Java that allows users to share,
process and edit geospatial data. Designed for interoperability, it publishes data from any major
spatial data source using open standards. GeoServer has evolved to become an easy method of
connecting existing information to virtual globes such as Google Earth and NASA World Wind as
well as to web-based maps such as OpenLayers, Leaflet, Google Maps and Bing Maps. GeoServer
functions as the reference implementation of the Open Geospatial Consortium Web Feature Service
standard, and also implements the Web Map Service, Web Coverage Service and Web Processing
Service specifications.
GeoServer aims to operate as a node within a free and open Spatial Data Infrastructure. Just as the
Apache HTTP Server has offered a free and open web server to publish HTML, GeoServer aims to
do the same for geospatial data.
Features
GeoServer reads a variety of data formats, including:

2.
1. PostGIS
2. Oracle Spatial
3. ArcSDE
4. IBM Db2
5. MySQL
6. MongoDB
7. Apache Solr
8. Shapefiles
9. GeoTIFF
10. GTOPO30
11. ECW, MrSID
12. JPEG2000
Through standard protocols it produces KML, GML, Shapefile, GeoRSS, PDF, GeoJSON, JPEG,
GIF, SVG, PNG and more. In addition, one can edit data via the WFS transactional profile (WFS-T).
GeoServer includes an integrated OpenLayers client for previewing data layers.GeoServer
additionally supports efficient publishing of geospatial data to Google Earth through the use of
network links, using KML. Advanced features for Google Earth output include templates for
customized pop-ups, time and height visualizations, and "super-overlays". GeoServer relies on
GeoTools, a GIS library.

Architecture
GeoServer uses the Spring Framework, providing a request dispatch architecture for modules
implementing OGC services. The web administration application uses wicket, allowing extensions to

3.
contribute additional configuration screens. The application provides a REST API implemented using
the spring-mvc-framework.
GeoServer is a web application, supporting any common servlet container (a standalone distribution
is available with the Jetty (web server) as an embedded server). GeoWebCache, a Java-based
caching component similar to TileCache, is bundled with GeoServer, but available
separately.Similarly, GeoServer packages GeoTools as a Java library, but it is also available
separately.
GeoServer is a longstanding application and has undergone several architectural changes.
GeoServer 1.0 was built around the STRUTS framework, with the migration to Spring and Wicket
taking place for GeoServer 2.0. Early versions of the REST API used restlet before migration to
spring-mvc-framework.
