Regionating is the process of dividing up features in a dataset so that as some client (ie google earth) requests maps it only receives information about a limited set of features, that fills in as you increase the zoom level. (This is nice for bandwidth-saving and end-user-experience-enhancing purposes.) There's some more info linked from the GSIP page now. > > Here is my guess... > sld - the language used by the SLD file (you can have multiple > languages in a single SLD file...) > attribute - checking an attribute on a feature by feature basis? > geo - making some guess based on where in the world feature is?

Sorry about the confusion here; some info about the different algorithms is included as well. I am not sure whether/how format_options are supported for POST requests. However, I think the typical use-case for regionating code will involve a seeded cache (since it is focused on making things easy for casual users) so dealing with custom requests may be a lesser concern. > > You are talking about changes to reduce the number of duplicated > classes; can you give us some kind of BEFORE and AFTER? This has also been added to the GSIP page.
