HI I can some please explain me the difference between MapGuide, MapServer and Geoserver. I understand that they are all map servers. Also I believe that mapguide consist of a browser interface to display the maps. Is this similar to openlayers? Are they using openlayers internally?
I can sorta understand how mapserver or geoserver integrates into a GIS system. For example openlayers will be the front end of the GIS system. mapserver or geoserver will server the user maps and also somehow pull data from a database (ie postGIS) (not sure how this part works?) So is this how MapGuide also works? Which of these involve the least coding? Also if I am planing to use Apache Tomcat server and JSP for server side scripting which of the three will be a good choice? Thanks I eagerly awaits your reposes -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/MapGuide-Mapserver-and-Geoserver-tp3493774p3493774.html Sent from the MapGuide Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
