Hi Andrea and Justin,
I will be working on SOS implementation in GeoServer in last quarter of this
year and currently doing some scoping work and studying on GeoServer source
code to see how I can implement it. Have a chat with Ben just now and he
pointed me to both of you and hope to get some pointers / helps from both of
you on some of thougths I have on how to implement SOS in GeoServer.
FYI, I have deployed a copy of 52NorthSOS in our test server that generate some
time series observations information [1]. I found that the GetCapabilities and
GetObservations output are very much similar to WFS GetCapabilities and
GetObservations output. e.g. The SOS observation output from SOS is basically
a WFS output that wraps in a SOAP envelope body (correct me if I am wrong...).
While studying the GetCapabilities implementation for WFS in GeoServer, I can
see a lot of complex implementations including the use of Eclipse Modeling
Framework in GeoTools to generate the WFS model (well, i don't fully understand
the whole implementation yet... ).
So, my thought would be since SOS output is just WFS output wraps in a SOAP
envelope body and rather than creating from scratch a whole new service for SOS
in GeoServer/GeoTools, we can make use of the existing WFS and App-Schema
modules to generate a SOS output - making implementation simpler. Wonder if
this is possible ? And if possible, how do I achieve this - writing SOAP
implementation in GeoServer ?

Note :
Eventhough I have few years GeoServer deployment experience but honestly
speaking, I am still very new with GeoServer development and hoping to find
some "mentors" or "sifus" who are willing to help or point me to the right
direction with this SOS implementation in GeoServer project.
Thanks & Regards,
