Support GeoServer

Open JasonSanford opened this issue 13 years ago • 3 comments

It appears GeoServer supports JSONP output for feature requests. This combined with a bbox filter make this an easy candidate for a new layer.

Does anyone know if the JSON(P) output is something special GeoServer offers or is it in the official spec? If it is something special GeoServer does, are there any other W*S providers that also output JSON? MapServer?

JSON output is definitely not part of the spec. MapServer wise, not sure, it may be possible by manually configuring a OGR output as described here: http://mapserver.org/output/ogr_output.html#ogr-output As far as I can see it's not something that you'd get without some manual intervention though, but I may be wrong.

Ok, Thanks. I guess what I was getting at was whether I should call the Layer something generic like gvector.WFS, but it looks like gvector.GeoServer is the best fit.
