“GeoServer WFS3: introduction to the RESTful, schemaless, JSON first download service”
2019-08-28, 15:30–15:50, Fortuna East

The WFS 3 specification introduces a number of significant changes in the protocol
compared to older versions, to mention just a few:

  • Small core with basic functionality, extra functionality provided by extensions
  • OpenAPI/RESTful based
  • GeoJSON first, while still allowing serving data in GML
  • No mandate to publish schemas for data

Come to this presentation to have a quick introduction to this new protocol version,
get updates on its implementation in GeoServer, and get a hint of how the protocol
is going to evolve in the future, also based on the June 2019 London OGC API hackaton.
