What is GeoServer?

Geoserver is one of the most widely used open source GIS servers that makes it easy to publish and share your data with others.

GeoServer and GeoApps

GeoServer and GeoApps strengthen each other: maps, data and collaboration on one GIS platform.

Geoserver is one of the most widely used open source GIS servers that makes it easy to publish and share your data with others. GeoServer can be directly connected to your own database such as PostgreSQL, or directly to files such as Tiff, GeoPackage and Shapefile. Using GeoServer, you build your own geo-infrastructure, and have complete control over access, data storage and availability. After publication, you can easily share and reuse data in other systems using services such as WMS or WFS. With GeoApps, it is easy to connect to a GeoServer using the WMS or WFS services that are created. Features such as filtering, showing popups and other interactions are all possible, and are not limited by connecting to your own GeoServer.
