Debian GIS Project
Summary
Map Server
Present geographic information via web map server

Debian packages which are dealing with geographical information to be presented for the web on so called map tile servers. These are pretty useful when trying to setup an OpenStreetMap tile server but not restricted to OpenStreetMap data only.

Description

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian GIS to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian GIS mailing list

This is the MapCache module for the Apache web server implementing OGC web services. An alternative mapcache FastCGI program is available in mapcache-cgi.

MapCache is a server that implements tile caching to speed up access to WMS layers. The primary objectives are to be fast and easily deployable, while offering the essential features (and more!) expected from a tile caching solution.

TileCache is an implementation of a WMS-C compliant server made available by MetaCarta. TileCache provides a Python-based WMS/TMS server, with pluggable caching mechanisms and rendering backends. In the simplest use case, TileCache requires only write access to a disk, the ability to run Python CGI scripts, and a WMS you want to be cached. With these resources, you can create your own local disk-based cache of any WMS server, and use the result in any WMS-C supporting client, like OpenLayers, or any TMS supporting client, like OpenLayers and worldKit.

twms is a WMS/TMS server for exporting your map tiles to WMS-enabled applications.

twms can export a set of raster tiles as a WMS service so GIS applications that support WMS protocol can access this tile set. Also, twms can act as a proxy and perform WMS requests to external services and serve the tile cache to WMS and TMS clients.

pycsw is an OGC CSW server implementation written in Python. pycsw fully implements the OpenGIS Catalogue Service Implementation Specification (Catalogue Service for the Web). Initial development started in 2010 (more formally announced in 2011). The project is certified OGC Compliant, and is an OGC Reference Implementation. Since 2015, pycsw is an official OSGeo Project. pycsw allows for the publishing and discovery of geospatial metadata via numerous APIs (CSW 2/CSW 3, OpenSearch, OAI-PMH, SRU). Existing repositories of geospatial metadata can also be exposed, providing a standards-based metadata and catalogue component of spatial data infrastructures. pycsw is Open Source, released under an MIT license, and runs on all major platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X).

This package contains the pycsw-admin utility and configuration files.

TinyOWS is a lightweight and fast implementation of the OGC WFS-T specification. Web Feature Service (WFS) allows querying and retrieval of features. The transactional profile (WFS-T) allows inserting, updating or deleting such features.

From a technical point of view WFS-T is a Web Service API in front of a spatial database. TinyOWS is deeply tied to PostgreSQL/PostGIS because of this.

TinyOWS implements strictly OGC standards and pass successfully all WFS OGC CITE tests (and even beta ones).

TinyOWS is part of MapServer Suite, but provided as a distinct module (i.e you could use it in conjunction with MapServer and MapCache, or as a standalone app). But both MapServer and TinyOWS could use the same configuration file, if you want to (or native TinyOWS XML config file).

Tilemill is a map design studio for creating custom interactive maps. Data can be imported, layered and styled, and legends added to the map. The map can be exported to several formats and easily embedded into a website.

Compatible datasources include ESRI Shapefile, KML, GeoJSON, GeoTIFF, PostGIS, CSV, and SQLite. For styling the maps, TileMill uses a language called CartoCSS. Colors, sizes, and shapes can all be manipulated by applying their relative CartoCS parameters. It is possible to export pannable, zoomable maps, and static maps in PNG, PDF, and SVG format. For advanced users, it is possible to export in Mapnik XML format, and exports can be scripted from the command line.
