Regie,
may be this tutorial on SLD/SE1.1 with deegree3 is useful (it has been built at the time of FOSSGIS 2013 in Switzerland):
http://mediamaps.ch/doku.php?id=ogo:sld_se_part1

Like GeoServer, deegree3 is a WMS/SLD OGC reference implementation, but in 2013, it was also compliant with Symbology Encoding 1.1 (SE) which is part of the replacement of the deprecated SLD 1.0. Moreover SE1.1 does offer few new capabilities, especially transformation functions (interpolate, recode, categorize).

Of course, GeoServer does offer interesting additional "vendor capabilities", but if you want portrayal interoperability, then you shall not use them. Nonetheless, these are often relevant capabilities which are currently taken into account in the current on-going redesign process at OGC, although it is quite a slow process, unfortunately.

If you are interested in this redesign, there is an article "/Redesign of OGC Symbology Encoding standard for sharing cartography/" which tries to summarize some of the major ideas to build a sustainable next generation SE standard (https://peerj.com/preprints/2415). Feel free to comment.

Hope this can help you.

Best regards,
Olivier.

Hey,

I know of these 2 tutorials in Cartographic Perspectives by Richard G Donohue, 
Robert E Roth, and Carl M Sack on web cartography:
https://github.com/uwcart/cartographic-perspectives

but its not about SLD. For SLD it may be best to check the GeoServer 
Documentation directly
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/sld/cookbook/

Although it also turns out that only half of the stuff is documented if I 
follow the GeoServer user list correctly ;).

best,
Stefan

Hello,

     Do any of the members in the list know of training and/or educational 
opportunities on web cartography and the use Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD)?

Best Regards,
