Getting Started

Basic

Data Preparation
Create Workspace
Create Store
Publish Layer
Preview Layer

Basic things to know:

1. Data Preparation

Data Specification: Layers, Projection, Field name, Field type etc.
In our case, the data format is Shapefile (.shp)

2. Create Workspace

A container used to group similar layers together.
Also used to differentiate between Geoserver services.
Eg. Malaysia_WMS, Malaysia_WFS

Name - Identifier describing your project (not more than 10 characters)
Namespace URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) - URL associated with your workspace (The URI doesn't need to resolve to an actual valid web address)
Services - Allowed services for this workspace and its data/layers

3. Create Store (1/2)

The store tells GeoServer how to connect to the shapefile.
In order to Create Layer, user must established a connection to where they store the Database.
Data supported by Geoserver:
- Vector
- Raster
For LBD, we used PostGIS as our Data Source.

3. Create Store (2/2)

Required Info:

Workspace - Select existing workspace
Name - Name of the Store

Connection Parameters:

dbtype - The type of database
host/port - IPaddress:port of the Postgis location
database - Name of the database created in Postgis

4. Create Layer (1/2)

2 ways to create layers in Geoserver:

SQL View
Direct Publish

Bounding Box*
Feature Type Details*
CQL Filter*

Publishing

WMS Settings
- Style etc.
WFS Settings
- Max Request etc.

Dimensions (not used)

Time
Elevation

Tile Caching

Configuration
- Enable/Disable*
- Metatiling Factors
- Tile Image Format
- Gridsets

5. Preview Layer

In order to verify that the layer is published correctly, user can preview the layer.
An OpenLayers map will load in a new tab and display the shapefile data with the default line style or own created style.

TM LBD Style

Styling

What is Styles?

Styles are used to control the appearance of geospatial data.
Geospatial data has no intrinsic visual component. In order to see data, it must be styled.
Styling specifies color, thickness, and other visible attributes used to render data on a map.

Styling Types

Geoserver can serve 3 classes of shapes of vector data:

Line - one dimensional shapes, is the simplest, as it has only the edge to style (also known as “stroke”).
Polygon - two dimensional shapes, have an edge (“stroke”) and an inside (also known as a “fill”), both of which can be styled differently.
Point - even though it lacks dimension, it has both an edge and a fill (not to mention a size) that can be styled.

Each shape can be styled with Label

And with just that, you can start create your own Map!

Styling Format

SLD Styling (Default)
Generate SLD with QGIS
CSS Styling (Extension)
YSLD Styling (Extension)
MBStyle Styling (Extension)

Learn to style map in Geoserver by using 1 of these 5 methods:

1. SLD Styling

In GeoServer, default styling format is accomplished using a markup language called Styled Layer Descriptor, or SLD for short.
SLD is an XML-based markup language and is very powerful, although somewhat complex.

A good way to learn about SLD is to study styling examples.

Refer: >> SLD Styling <<

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<StyledLayerDescriptor version="1.0.0"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd"
    xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld"
    xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"
    xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <NamedLayer>
    <Name>Simple point</Name>
    <UserStyle>
      <Title>GeoServer SLD: Simple point</Title>
      <FeatureTypeStyle>
        <Rule>
          <PointSymbolizer>
            <Graphic>
              <Mark>
                <WellKnownName>circle</WellKnownName>
                <Fill>
                  <CssParameter name="fill">#FF0000</CssParameter>
                </Fill>
              </Mark>
              <Size>6</Size>
            </Graphic>
          </PointSymbolizer>
        </Rule>
      </FeatureTypeStyle>
    </UserStyle>
  </NamedLayer>
</StyledLayerDescriptor>

Eg: Simple POINT using SLD styling

2. Generate SLD Styling with QGIS

Don't have time to study and create SLD? Use QGIS.

Styles generated with QGIS can then be exported (with limitations) to SLD for usage with GeoServer.
For vector data QGIS exports SLD 1.1 styles that can be read by GeoServer.
In order to get the suitable results it’s important to use QGIS 3.0 or newer, and GeoServer 2.13.x or newer.

Refer: >> QGIS SLD <<

3. CSS Styling

The CSS extension uses a CSS-derived language instead of SLD.
These CSS styles are internally converted to SLD, which is then used as normal by GeoServer.
CSS is not a part of GeoServer by default, but is available as an extension.

Refer: >> CSS Styling <<

</StyledLayerDescriptor>

 * {
   mark: symbol(circle);
   mark-size: 6px;
   :mark {
     fill: #FF0000;
   }
 }

4. YSLD Styling

YSLD is a YAML based language which closely matches the structure of SLD.
YSLD is not a part of GeoServer by default, but is available as an optional install or extension.

Refer: >> YSLD Styling <<

5. MBStyle Styling

MBStyle is a JSON based language which can be converted to SLD.
MBStyle is not a part of GeoServer by default, but is available as an optional install or extension.

Filtering

Type of Filtering

SQL View
CQL/ECQL Filter
XML-based SLD Filter

1. SQL View/Filter

SQL View allow executing a custom SQL query on each request to the layer.
This avoids the need to create a database view for complex queries.

SELECT
place_na AS poi_name,
tel_no,
url AS website,
lot_number AS lot_no,
house_num AS house_no,
buildingna AS building_name,
landmarkna AS landmark_name,
street_t AS street_type,
street_na AS street_name,
postal_num AS postcode,
section_na AS section_name,
city_name,

CASE 
WHEN state_code='JH' THEN 'JOHOR'

Example:

SQL View for layer - WFS_POI

More: >> SQL View <<

2. CQL/ECQL Filter

CQL (Common Query Language) is a query language created by the OGC.
Unlike the XML-based Filter Encoding language, CQL is written using a familiar text-based syntax.
CQL has some limitations. For example it cannot encode id filters, and it requires an attribute to be on the left side of any comparison operator.
For this reason, GeoServer provides an extended version of CQL called ECQL (Extended CQL).
ECQL removes the limitations of CQL, providing a more flexible language with stronger similarities with SQL.

Example:

To create new layer where the condition is excluding all states except Kuala Lumpur

3. XML-SLD Filter

GeoServer provides many different kinds of XML Filter functions, covering a wide range of functionality including mathematics, string formatting, and geometric operations.

Example:

Using String function (strReplace) to return the string with the pattern replaced with the given replacement text.

SLD Extensions

GeoServer provides a number of vendor-specific extensions to SLD 1.0.

Although not portable to other applications, these extensions make styling more powerful and concise and allow for the generation of better-looking maps.

SLD Extensions

Geometry Transformation
Graphic Symbology
Specifying Symbolizer Sizes in Ground Units
Z-Ordering

1. Geometry Transformation

The expression can contain filter functions that manipulate geometries by transforming them into something different.
It can be used to do things such as extracting line vertices or endpoints, offsetting polygons, or buffering geometries.

2. Graphic Symbology

Graphic contains either a Mark or an ExternalGraphic element.
Mark are pure vector symbols whose geometry is predefined but with stroke and fill defined in the SLD itself.
External Graphics are external files (such as PNG images or SVG graphics) that contain the shape and color information defining how to render a symbol.
Both are fixed strings.
GeoServer extends this by providing Dynamic Symbolizer, which allow computing symbol names on a per-feature basis by embedding CQL expressions ${<cql expression>} in both Mark and External Graphic.

<PointSymbolizer>
  <Graphic>
    <Mark>
      <WellKnownName>circle</WellKnownName>
      <Fill>
        <CssParameter name="fill">#ff8000</CssParameter>
      </Fill>
      <Stroke>
        <CssParameter name="stroke">#000000</CssParameter>
        <CssParameter name="stroke-width">1</CssParameter>
      </Stroke>

    <Size>11</Size>
  </Graphic>
</PointSymbolizer>

Eg: Show icon for KL state label only

3. Specifying Symbolizer Sizes in Ground Units

The SLD 1.0 specification allows giving symbolizer sizes in a single unit of measure.
This means that the size of symbolizers is the same at all zoom levels (which is usually the desired behaviour).

<LineSymbolizer uom="http://www.opengeospatial.org/se/units/metre">
  <Stroke>
    <CssParameter name="stroke">#0000FF</CssParameter>
    <CssParameter name="stroke-width">5</CssParameter>
  </Stroke>
</LineSymbolizer>

Zoom 1

Zoom 2

Zoom 3

Eg: Applying the style to the Street dataset shows how the line widths increase as the map is zoomed in:

4. Z-Ordering

Z-Ordering vendor option control the order in which the features are being loaded and painted on the map.
It replicating the same above/below (Street/Rail Line) relationships found in the reality.
In other words, this is the function which enables the Street Elevation feature in LBD map.
