Developer’s Corner: Turning GeoServer into an ImageServer

Blog ‐ Posted on 23.05.2011 by simone giannecchini

We have named this library GeoServer-Manager (yeah, a lot of brainstorming behind that name, really...).Basically the goal of this library is to provide a simple yet usable way to interface a Java application with the GeoServer that would actually ease the work of the developers hiding away from them the relative complexity of the GeoServer REST interface without introducing a complex communication layer. Here you have some basic facts about the library: minimum set of external dependencies, namely...
