Apache Spatial Information System
Apache Spatial Information System (SIS) is a free, open-source Java library designed for developing geospatial applications. It provides data structures for geographic features and associated metadata, along with methods to manipulate these structures. As an implementation of GeoAPI 3.0.2 interfaces, SIS is suitable for both desktop and server applications. Key Features and Functionality: - Metadata Handling: Supports the creation of metadata objects compliant with OGC/ISO international standards, facilitating interoperability and data sharing.
- Tool Variety
- Geospatial Analysis
GeoServer
Designed for interoperability, GeoServer publishes data from any major spatial data source using open standards. GeoServer implements industry standard OGC protocols such as Web Feature Service (WFS), Web Map Service (WMS), and Web Coverage Service (WCS). Additional formats and publication options are available as extensions including Web Processing Service (WPS), and Web Map Tile Service (WMTS).
