Tips and Tricks: Managing GeoWebCache via ReST

Dear Readers, Today we would like to talk about our experience with GeoWebCache and how we use it in some of our deployments. Before moving on we would like to remind you about this post we wrote a couple of years ago that contains a tweaks checklist for GeoWebCache , if you have not read it yet I would do so as it is quite useful indeed. GeoWebCache is a powerful way to speed up your Web Map Services. By avoiding to continuously  perform the rendering process for your data you can make your infrastructure much more responsive, reduce the...

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

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...

Who’s scared of advanced GeoServer workshops?

Apparently, the FOSS4G Europe attendees are not scared of advanced GeoServer workshops. Tuesday 15th of July, GeoSolutions gave a workshop called "GeoServer on steroids: getting the best out of GeoServer" at FOSS4G Europe, in Como (Italy). We managed to attract more than 60 attendees, so much that it had to be run by two separate teachers, our tech leads Andrea Aime and Mauro Bartolomeoli, in two different computer labs. In our view, this is a sign of maturity of the FOSS4G conferences, which over the years collected a number of returning attendees, people that went past the basics and crave for some more advanced training....
