Debian GIS Map server packages

This package contains the mapserv CGI program. It provides the MapServer template language, and can be used to implement Web Map Service applications.

MapServer is a CGI-based framework for Internet map services which supports Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standards. Scripting functionality in MapScript is provided by the suggested mapscript library packages.

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.

This package provides command-line utilities for MapCache.

Python MapScript provides MapServer functions for Python scripts.

OWSLib is a Python package for client programming with Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) web service (hence OWS) interface standards, and their related content models.

Full documentation is available at http://geopython.github.io/OWSLib

OWSLib provides a common API for accessing service metadata and wrappers for numerous OGC Web Service interfaces.

This package provides the Python 2 version of the library.

QGIS is a Geographic Information System (GIS) which manages, analyzes and display databases of geographic information.

This package contains the QGIS server.

Routino is an application for finding a route between two points using the dataset of topographical information collected by OpenStreetMap

This is the web frontend to the router.

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.

TileStache is a Python-based server application that can serve up map tiles based on rendered geographic data.

TileStache features:

• Renders Mapnik maps.
• Serves pre-rendered tiles out of MBTiles tilesets.
• Generates vector tiles from OGR datasources in GeoJSON usable in Polymaps.
• Caches to disk, Memcache, Amazon S3, MBTiles, and elsewhere.
• Serves tiles in Google-style spherical mercator projection and WGS84 lat/lon projection.
• Runs from CGI, mod_python, or Gunicorn WSGI.
• Uses metatiles.

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.

This package contains the mapcache FastCGI program, as alternative to the Apache module available in libapache2-mod-mapcache.

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).

Musmap is a web mapping interface which has an advanced users/profiles management system.

Features:

 Can open all file formats supported by UMN Mapserver (shapefiles, PostGIS,
 OGR, OracleSpacial, ...)
 Can open Rasters (geotiff, ecw, jpeg, ...) tile-indexed
 Management of display properties (via profiles)
  > Users
   > Profiles (aka maps)
    > data (alpha or shape or raster)
     > classes (=legend elements)
      > styles (colors, symbols, ...)
      > labels (...)
   > Overviews (reference maps)
   > Extents (to quickly zoom)
   > ...
 Easy administration:
  give a list of connections, Musmap will find all the data!
  Adding/removing users
  Adding/removing data-sources
  Importing or changing metadata (data labels, joins, ...)
 Tools (build spacial indexes, automatic metadata creation, ...)
 Tested with many browsers (Requires Javascript):
  Gecko (Mozilla Suite, Firefox, Netscape, ...),
  KHTML (Konqueror, Safari, ...),
  Internet explorer >5, ...

PyWPS is implementation of Web Processing Service from Open Geospatial Consortium Inc.(R) with help of Python Programming Language and GIS GRASS as working tool in background.

This package contains the pywps executable and example processes.

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.

Kosmtik is a very light but extendable mapping framework to create Mapnik ready maps with OpenStreetMap data (and more).

Carto based projects are supported (with .mml or .yml config).
