Description

GeoServer is an Open Source cartographic engine developed in a JAVA environment and based on the GeoTools library. It implements numerous OGC Web Service specifications (WMS, WFS-T, WCS, SLD, etc.) and is, moreover, a reference application for the OGC to support the WFS standard. GeoServer allows you to quickly set up a Web Service to provide GIS data. GeoServer manages many output formats for data (PNG, SVG, KML, JPEG, PDF, GeoJSON, etc.). In addition, it is easy for an informed user to add their own personalized output module for vector data.
