Re: [Geoserver-users] Reduce Geometry size in GetFeatureInfo responses?

2015-06-10 Thread Martin Davis
All good advice, but unfortunately not so easy to take advantage of in our environment. We allow all visible layers to be queried. This is why we prefer GetFeatureInfo to WFS, since it's sensitive to scale limits. The propertynames option is one way to do this, but we have hundreds of layers, so

We did consider this option as well, but we don't think it will move the needle enough on download size and processing time. Problematic datasets have features with over 10K coordinates. Even if we dropped half the coordinate digits, this would still only reduce the response size to 50%. That's b

[Geoserver-users] GeoServer on Java 8 VM

2015-06-10 Thread Kevin Smith
I'm doing testing on how GeoServer runs on Java 8 (Although compiled with Java 7). As yet I'm not seeing any issues, including when I run the unit tests for the release profile. I'll be throwing some automated stress tests at it today. There's no particular reason to expect this to be problemati

Thanks. That's pretty much what I expected to hear. The vendor option idea sounds good, particularly for the none|bbox options. Agreed that the simplify option would also require a tolerance value. On further thought I'm not sure this would provide an effect that is all that useful, since it's

I should add that it's probably not feasible to use FreeMarker templates, since we have a lot of layers defined, and in some cases we don't have the ability to modify the server configuration. Also, we also want to be able to retrieve the geometry via GetFeatureInfo in some situations. Ideally th
