orbisgis/orbisgis-server

An OrbisGIS-based server for OGC web services (WMS, WPS...)

ALERT

After several years of development, it is time to reorganize the OrbisGIS architecture to offer to the users and the developers a robust libraries and framework, a better documentation and a more user-friendly GUI. Because the OrbisGIS team is at the heart of open source communities, because it supports collective work and the sharing of tools and methods rather than reinventing the wheel, we have decided to split OrbisGIS in a two main libraries :

• OrbisData : https://github.com/orbisgis/orbisdata -> to manage, process data
• OrbisMap : https://github.com/orbisgis/orbismap -> to renderer geospatial data

These libraries take profit of the FOSS ecosystem and the next OrbisGIS user interface will be developped on top of the Eclipse RCP framework and the dbeaver tool. Many dbeaver features are in line with the needs of the OrbisGIS users and its functions (SQL editor, tree database explorer, table viewer...). We are therefore thinking of adding OrbisGIS features to dbeaver and use it in replacement to the current OrbisGIS (based on DockingFrames). OrbisRCP aggregates all OrbisGIS plugins available for DBeaver. See : https://github.com/orbisgis/orbisrcp

Note that the H2GIS extension and the CTS library are still being actively developed by the OrbisGIS team.

OrbisGIS

OrbisGIS is a cross-platform open-source Geographic Information System (GIS) created by research and for research. It is leaded by CNRS within the French Lab-STICC laboratory (DECIDE team of Vannes) and licensed under GPLv3. OrbisGIS proposes new methods and techniques to model, represent, process and share spatial data, making it easy to monitor geographical territories and manage their evolution. In a world ever-increasingly aware of its ecological footprint and the relevance of sustainable development, a systematic approach to evaluating public policies is of paramount importance. Such an approach must take into account relevant environmental, social and economic factors to facilitate efficient decision making and planning. As an integrated modeling platform containing analytical tools for computing various indicators at different spatial and temporal scales, OrbisGIS is already an indispensable instrument for many. Come see what all the buzz is about!

Error compiling in Ubuntu 12.04

Hi, compiling wms repository in Ubuntu 12.04, I get the next error:

GetMap problem with an internal style

A ServiceException (one of the requested SE styles doesn't exist on this server. Please look for an existing style in the server extended capabilities) is raised when using an internal style.

I used the style polygons.se from the request example found in the following zip: http://geosysin.iict.ch/scapc2/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=wiki:orbiswms_example_request.zip

The WMS query is: http://localhost:9000/wms/wms?REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&CRS=EPSG:27582&BBOX=-156192.28836424963,1620431.0,1401694.2883642497,2677441.0&WIDTH=874&HEIGHT=593&FORMAT=image/png&pixelSize=0.024&LAYERS=DEP_FRANCE&STYLES=polygons.se

I also tried to rename the internal style. This raises another exception: [NoSuchElementException: None.get]

Reprojection problem

There is still a reprojection problem:

"[error] play - Waiting for a promise, but got an error: Gdms failed to parse the projection query. Shoudln't happen."

This error occured with the following request: http://localhost:9000/wms/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=5.96516,45.81951,10.55886,47.77211&WIDTH=400&HEIGHT=253&LAYERS=g4districts98db&STYLES=

(The native projection is EPSG:21781)

ST_TRANSFORM update

The ST_TRANSFORM method used to reproject a layer must be updated to follow the new ST_TRANSFORM method.

SELECT ST_TRANSFORM(the_geom, targetCRSCode [or 'EPSG:4326']) from myTable

GDMS-based MapCatalog : name element is missing for GET /workspaces

According to https://github.com/irstv/orbisgis-server/wiki/MapCatalog-API-Reference, each workspace name is encapsulated within a element. Current gdms-based implementation doesn't have it : see http://services.orbisgis.org/map/workspaces.

GetMap problem with a postgresql layer

A white image is returned when using a source of type POSTGRESQL.

1. I put a new source on http://localhost:9000/wms/api/sources
   {
   "name" : "g4districts98db",
   "uri" : "postgresql://poulpe.heig-vd.ch:5432/scapdata?user=postgres&password=secret&schema=public&table=g4districts98"
   }
2. The source appears in the GetCapabilities
3. I used the following request: http://localhost:9000/wms/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&CRS=EPSG:21781&BBOX=485472,75285,833838,295935&WIDTH=400&HEIGHT=253&LAYERS=g4districts98db&STYLES=

GetMap problem with a SLD style

A white image is returned when using the SLD parameter instead of LAYERS/STYLES

I used the following request: http://localhost:9000/wms/wms?REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&CRS=EPSG:27582&BBOX=-156192.28836424963,1620431.0,1401694.2883642497,2677441.0&WIDTH=874&HEIGHT=593&FORMAT=image/png&pixelSize=0.024&SLD=http://poulpe.heig-vd.ch/scapc2/sld/polygons.sld

Support for on-the-fly reprojection

The WMS server currently cannot re-project an input source to whatever CRS is asked for by the client.

This should be supported.

GetLegendGraphic

Add support to GetLegendGraphic

Support for GetFeatureInfo

Add support for GetFeatureInfo with some interesting result type, like geoJson or at least a simple HTML view.

JAI Compatibility issue with Java 7

We're having a quite important problem with JAI when trying to execute orbisgis-server with Java7. JAI is dependant on some API from com.sun.* that has disappeared with Java 7. If you have a look in the JAI
com.sun.media.jai.codecimpl.JPEGImageEncoder
class you can see that it is dependant upon
com.sun.image.codec.jpeg.JPEGEncodeParam

This will lead to problem because according to
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/compatibility-417013.html

we can see that:

Synopsis: The Non-standard com.sun.image.jpeg.codec Package is Retired
Description: The com.sun.image.codec.jpeg package was added in JDK 1.2 (Dec 1998) as a non-standard way of controlling the loading and saving of JPEG format image files. This package was never part of the platform specification and it has been removed from the Java SE 7 release. The Java Image I/O API was added to the JDK 1.4 release as a standard API and eliminated the need for the com.sun.image.jpeg.codec package.
Nature of Incompatibility: binary and source

The problem here is that JAI uses this removed classes to perform operations on JPEG files...

One solution is to use ImageIO rather than JAI for JPEG files. We already did it with @mjothy, it's really simple. This issue is not limited to that problem, though : I think we may wonder if the use of JAI, considering these kind of issues, is still justified.

GetMap problem with a custom shapefile

A white image is returned when using a custom shapefile

1. I used the following shapefile: http://poulpe.heig-vd.ch/scapc2/shp/g4districts98.zip
2. The source appears in the GetCapabilities
3. I used the following request: http://localhost:9000/wms/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&CRS=EPSG:21781&BBOX=485472,75285,833838,295935&WIDTH=400&HEIGHT=253&LAYERS=g4districts98&STYLES=

Hardlinked play location ?

I've just noticed there's a play "file" at the root of the project. It seems to be a symbolic link to your play installation. Could you please fix that ?

Wrong result image with a getmap request

A getMap request on orbisgis_server version 3f99e30 returns a wrong representation of the layer. The layer is rendered on top of the map transform bounding box.

GetCapabilties server URL

The URL of the WMS server returned by the getcapabilities seems not good : http://services-redirect/wms/wms? instead of http://services.orbisgis.org/wms/wms?
