1:00 Kartoza: Rendering Points as a Heatmap in GeoServer
sur Planet OSGeoRendering Points as a Heatmap in GeoServerI was assigned the task of rendering a points layer as a heatmap on GeoServer. The client provided a QGIS style that they wanted replicated using an SLD (Styled Layer Descriptor). Initially, they attempted to export the QGIS style directly as an SLD and upload it to GeoServer. However, this approach failed because QGIS generated the heatmap SLD as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><StyledLayerDescriptor xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld [schemas.opengis.net] xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" version="1.1.0" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:se="http://www.opengis.net/se"> <NamedLayer> <se:Name>Current_Layer</se:Name> <UserStyle> <se:Name>Current_style</se:Name> <se:FeatureTypeStyle> <!--FeatureRenderer heatmapRenderer not implemented yet--> </se:FeatureTypeStyle> </UserStyle> </NamedLayer></StyledLayerDescriptor>
The main issue was the line:
<!--FeatureRenderer heatmapRenderer not implemented yet-->
, indicating that the style was essentially saved as blank or non-renderable. This was simply how the style was exported from QGIS.
The first step in addressing the request was to visit the GeoServer Styling Manual and see if there was any example documentation that could help. There was an explanation of how to generate a heatmap style in the Rendering Transformations' Heatmap Generation documentation as well as an example of a heatmap SLD.
Using the example from the documentation as a basis, I made a few adjustments to ensure the style met the client’s requirements. Here is what the initial heatmap style looked like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><StyledLayerDescriptor version="1.0.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd" xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <NamedLayer> <Name>Heatmap Style</Name> <UserStyle> <Title>Heatmap Style</Title> <Abstract></Abstract> <FeatureTypeStyle> <Transformation> <ogc:Function name="vec:Heatmap"> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>data</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>weightAttr</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>geometry</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>radiusPixels</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>75</ogc:Literal> <!-- Spread of heatmap around points, set a number below 100 to reduce spread of heatmap --> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>pixelsPerCell</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>5</ogc:Literal> <!-- Set a small number here to generate a higher resolution heatmap --> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputBBOX</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_bbox</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputWidth</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_width</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputHeight</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_height</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </Transformation> <Rule> <RasterSymbolizer> <Geometry> <ogc:PropertyName>geometry</ogc:PropertyName> </Geometry> <Opacity>0.5</Opacity> <ColorMap type="ramp"> <!-- The quantity specifies the percentage of the data range on which to change the colour --> <ColorMapEntry color="#FFFFFF" quantity="0" label="" opacity="0"/> <!-- This is needed to have empty areas around the heatmap 'islands' --> <ColorMapEntry color="#4444FF" quantity=".1" label=""/> <ColorMapEntry color="#00FFAE" quantity=".3" label=""/> <ColorMapEntry color="#FF0000" quantity=".5" label="" /> <ColorMapEntry color="#FFAE00" quantity=".75" label=""/> <ColorMapEntry color="#FFFF00" quantity="1.0" label="" /> </ColorMap> </RasterSymbolizer> </Rule> </FeatureTypeStyle> </UserStyle> </NamedLayer></StyledLayerDescriptor>
Inline comments were added to the SLD to help the client understand which lines they could modify if needed.
The primary adjustments made to the example style are as follows:
- Setting the `weightAttr` as `geometry` so that specified input attribute is the geometry of the various points.
- Adjusting the `radiusPixels` and the `pixelsPerCell` values.
- Adding additional stops in the colour ramp.
- Changing the hexcodes of the colours in the colour ramp to be the same as the example heatmap.
While generating the heatmap style, an issue frequently occurred with GeoServer’s built-in style previewer, which did not display the style accurately. As a result, I had to check the results on the front-end map after every change. This limitation is evident in the screenshot below, where the GeoServer preview lacks a proper front-end to display the styled dummy data, making it appear different from how it would look on an actual map.
The generated heatmap looked like this when rendered correctly (this is dummy data and not the actual data):
The client was pleased with the heatmap but later requested additional functionality: displaying the relative counts of the various heatmap surfaces. This prompted me to research whether anyone had implemented something similar that I could use as a reference. After an extensive search yielded no results, I decided to experiment and create a custom SLD to meet the client’s requirements.
I had previously been shown and used the Point Stacker logic in GeoServer to do clustered symbol displays so I used this as my base logic. The whole logic behind the clustered labelling display didn't need to be complex. All the labels would be the same size, and font, and they just needed to display a relative count.
Given these criteria, I modified my existing Point Stacker logic to be simplified and it looked like this:
<FeatureTypeStyle> <Transformation> <ogc:Function name="gs:PointStacker"> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>data</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>cellSize</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>20</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputBBOX</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_bbox</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputWidth</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_width</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputHeight</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_height</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </Transformation> <Rule> <Name>Clusters</Name> <Title>Clusters</Title> <ogc:Filter> <ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThanOrEqualTo> <ogc:PropertyName>count</ogc:PropertyName> <ogc:Literal>5</ogc:Literal> </ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThanOrEqualTo> </ogc:Filter> <TextSymbolizer> <Label> <ogc:PropertyName>count</ogc:PropertyName> </Label> <Font> <CssParameter name="font-family">Arial</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="font-size">10</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="font-weight">bold</CssParameter> </Font> <LabelPlacement> <PointPlacement> <AnchorPoint> <AnchorPointX>0</AnchorPointX> <AnchorPointY>0</AnchorPointY> </AnchorPoint> </PointPlacement> </LabelPlacement> <Halo> <Radius>0.4</Radius> <Fill> <CssParameter name="fill">#000000</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="fill-opacity">1</CssParameter> </Fill> </Halo> <Fill> <CssParameter name="fill">#FFFFFF</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="fill-opacity">1.0</CssParameter> </Fill> </TextSymbolizer> </Rule> </FeatureTypeStyle>
There is only one clustering rule as having different sized circles symbolizing different sized clusters was not needed. The `cellSize` was set to 20 map units so that all points within a grid cell of 20x20 map units get clustered together. The `count` property was set to be greater than or equal to 5, as during the creation of the style, it became apparent that labelling all of the clusters with fewer than 5 points overcrowded the map visually and did not add any more information.
The next step was combining the logic for the heatmap and the labelled clusters. After multiple failed attempts, I found that I couldn't combine the two logics into one `FeatureTypeStyle` and needed two separate `FeatureTypeStyle` groups. From there I then played around with the ordering of the `FeatureTypeStyle` logic and learnt that the heatmap style needed to come first in the SLD.
All the attempts led to this style:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <StyledLayerDescriptor version="1.0.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd" xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:se="http://www.opengis.net/se"> <NamedLayer> <Name>Cluster points</Name> <UserStyle> <!-- Styles can have names, titles and abstracts --> <Title>Clustered points</Title> <Abstract>Styling using cluster points server side</Abstract> <FeatureTypeStyle> <Transformation> <ogc:Function name="vec:Heatmap"> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>data</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>weightAttr</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>geometry</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <!-- Set a very small radius or remove this parameter --> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>radiusPixels</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>75</ogc:Literal> <!-- Reduced radius --> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>pixelsPerCell</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>5</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputBBOX</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_bbox</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputWidth</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_width</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputHeight</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_height</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </Transformation> <Rule> <RasterSymbolizer> <Geometry> <ogc:PropertyName>geometry</ogc:PropertyName> </Geometry> <Opacity>0.5</Opacity> <ColorMap type="ramp"> <ColorMapEntry color="#FFFFFF" quantity="0" label="" opacity="0"/> <ColorMapEntry color="#4444FF" quantity=".1" label=""/> <ColorMapEntry color="#00FFAE" quantity=".3" label=""/> <ColorMapEntry color="#FF0000" quantity=".5" label="" /> <ColorMapEntry color="#FFAE00" quantity=".75" label=""/> <ColorMapEntry color="#FFFF00" quantity="1.0" label="" /> </ColorMap> </RasterSymbolizer> </Rule> </FeatureTypeStyle> <!-- Clustering and labelling logic --> <FeatureTypeStyle> <Transformation> <ogc:Function name="gs:PointStacker"> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>data</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>cellSize</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>20</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputBBOX</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_bbox</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputWidth</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_width</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>outputHeight</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Function name="env"> <ogc:Literal>wms_height</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </Transformation> <Rule> <Name>Clusters</Name> <Title>Clusters</Title> <ogc:Filter> <ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThanOrEqualTo> <ogc:PropertyName>count</ogc:PropertyName> <ogc:Literal>5</ogc:Literal> </ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThanOrEqualTo> </ogc:Filter> <TextSymbolizer> <Label> <ogc:PropertyName>count</ogc:PropertyName> </Label> <Font> <CssParameter name="font-family">Arial</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="font-size">10</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="font-weight">bold</CssParameter> </Font> <LabelPlacement> <PointPlacement> <AnchorPoint> <AnchorPointX>0</AnchorPointX> <AnchorPointY>0</AnchorPointY> </AnchorPoint> </PointPlacement> </LabelPlacement> <Halo> <Radius>0.4</Radius> <Fill> <CssParameter name="fill">#000000</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="fill-opacity">1</CssParameter> </Fill> </Halo> <Fill> <CssParameter name="fill">#FFFFFF</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="fill-opacity">1.0</CssParameter> </Fill> </TextSymbolizer> </Rule> </FeatureTypeStyle> </UserStyle> </NamedLayer></StyledLayerDescriptor>
This style renders the points as a heatmap using the `geometry` attribute for weighting and then displays labels for clusters of points that are larger than 5. It looks like this (Again, this is dummy data and not the actual data):
The style is functional and has been approved by the client. However, I would like to revisit the labelling logic to better align it with the heatmap styling. Specifically, I aim to have the labels correspond to the colour breaks in the heatmap rather than relying on a separate clustering logic.

Jackie Ng: Announcing: mapguide-react-layout 0.14.10 and MapGuide Maestro 6.0m13
sur Planet OSGeoWe start the new year with a double-header release of:
- MapGuide Maestro 6.0m13
- mapguide-react-layout 0.14.10
Namely, it is to do with a notification I received about the coming deprecation (and eventual shutdown) of the epsg.io service that both pieces of software use to do proj4 projection lookups for any given EPSG code. This service will shutdown in Feburary (next month) and transition over to the MapTiler coordinates API. This new API requires an API key to use their services.
In the context of these 2 projects, the API key requirement introduces too much friction.- If I take up the offer to use MapTiler, I have to register and bake my API key into both Maestro and mapguide-react-layout and am now responsible for API usage/monitoring under this key from users I have no control over. Last thing I want to deal with is bug reports from users because, let's say for example: proj4 lookup is broken because the API is no longer accessible for my API key due to quota exceeded. I just don't want to deal with such a scenario.
- Which means the alternative is to change the code to the extent that users can "bring their own API key", taking such API key usage/monitoring concerns out of my hands. This too is also too much hassle. I just want to do EPSG code to proj4 lookups nothing more nothing less!
So in light of these concerns, instead of moving to MapTiler coordinates. Instead I have opted to use spatialreference.org to do EPSG -> proj4 lookups. No API keys are required there.
So since this was the main driver for needing to put out new releases of MapGuide Maestro and mapguide-react-layout, we might as well take this opportunity to lump in some other fixes and minor changes, which are detailed below.mapguide-react-layout changes(reworked) Stamen and (new) StadiaMaps supportStamen tiled layer support was broken for some time since it was taken over by Stadia Maps. I had already taken care of this in the VSCode map preview extension which had the same problem. But for mapguide-react-layout, the fix was a bit different due to it not using the latest version of OpenLayers and it is too much work right now to update to the latest OpenLayers in mapguide-react-layout.
So what was done for mapguide-react-layout instead is to create these Stamen tile layers as XYZ layers instead of using the (now broken for that OL release) Stamen tile source. This works because Stamen tiles are ultimately tilesets using the XYZ web mercator scheme. The only other changes is that a Stadia Maps API key is required. So if your appdef defines one or more Stamen tile layers and you didn't specify an API key, you'll get the same startup warning you get when you have Bing Maps layers and didn't specify a Bing Maps API key
But if you do provide a Stadia Maps API key, you'll get the Stamen layers you've seen before.
Since a Stadia Maps API key is now required, we've also added support for other tilesets provided by Stadia Maps, like:
Alidade Smooth
Alidade Smooth Dark
Alidade Satellite
Outdoors
So if you are loading your mapguide-react-layout viewer from a Flexible Layout document, where do you need to specify this new Stadia Maps API key?
That's where the new release of MapGuide Maestro comes in to help!MapGuide Maestro ChangesStamen Maps (changed) and Stadia Maps (new) supportThe Fusion Editor has reworked Stamen Maps support and added support for Stadia Maps
You'll notice that Stamen and Stadia Maps have 2 variants for every layer.- A specialized version
- An XYZ layer variant ("... as XYZ")
This was done so that if you are still authoring Flexible Layouts for Fusion instead of mapguide-react-layout, you can still view Stamen and Stadia Maps layers in Fusion through the existing XYZ layer support that is available in Fusion as demonstrated in the screenshot below, using the Stadia Maps alidade_smooth_dark tileset + API key.
So depending on the context:
If you are authoring a Flexible Layout for Fusion, choose the "... as XYZ" version and enter the Stadia Maps API key when prompted.
Otherwise, if you are authoring a Flexible Layout for mapguide-react-layout, choose the specialized version and enter the Stadia Maps API key in the provided field
This release of mapguide-react-layout will read the Stadia Maps API key from this new setting in the Flexible Layout when initializing with Stamen and Stadia Maps tile layers.
Using spatialreference.org for EPSG > proj4 lookupsAs stated above, the projection management dialog of the Fusion Editor now uses spatialreference.org for resolving proj4 strings from EPSG codes
Other changes- WMS Feature Source Editor: Improved the responsiveness and usability of the Advanced Configuration Dialog

OPENGIS.ch: Visualizing Ideas: From circles to planets to story arcs
sur Planet OSGeoMy first day at OPENGIS.ch back in September wasn’t what you usually expect when starting at a new workplace. Instead of diving head first into some complex code repository or reading up on company policies, I found myself scribbling lines and circles onto paper.
The OPENGIS.ch team was meeting in Bern at Puzzle ITC / We Are Cube for a workshop on visualizing ideas, hosted by Mayra and Jürgen from We Are Cube. For a few hours, a room full of slightly unsure, but mostly intrigued geo ninjas armed with pencils and paper discovered a new way to express their ideas through simple visuals.
Getting Started: Persuading the «I-Can’t-Draw-For-My-Life» Crowd
Entering the meeting room, some felt slightly threatened by the pencils on the table, but we were quickly assured that no one was expected to become the next Picasso – just to visualize ideas. Easy, right?
Visualizations help us understand, remember, and process ideas better than text or numbers can. Our brains are wired to process images far quicker than text. Being able to sketch ideas is a great skill, so let’s do it!
But for some of us, artistic expression is limited to drawing UML diagrams, and even that can be outsourced to code (see this nifty little tool called Mermaid). So, when it came time to draw our favorite animals as a warm-up, some people were a bit out of their comfort zone. But we soon learned that there are many neat tricks and strategies to make visualizing ideas easier.
The Basics: Shapes, Containers, Arrows, ExpressionsAfter getting over the stress of drawing animals, it was time to get into the basics. Jürgen explained that everything can be visualized using just a handful of simple shapes: circles, squares, triangles, and lines.
By adding a few details to these shapes, we can visualize many different objects without getting lost in the complexity of reality. And suddenly, a circle can be a hole in the paper, a plate or planet earth.
To then visualize even more complex ideas, only three basic elements are needed – containers (like rectangles or circles), arrows, and facial expressions. Containers represent the things we care about (whether that’s a person, an object, or an idea). Arrows help us show the relationships or flow between them. And facial expressions, well, they capture emotion.
By using these basic elements we build complex ideas – no high-level artistic skill required!
The Story Arc: Put your idea into a storyNow that we were a bit more comfortable with expressing ourselves on paper, we were introduced to the Story Arc. It’s a framework that helps structure a narrative visually. Whether you’re presenting a project, brainstorming a new product, or explaining a complex process, having a clear story structure makes everything easier to understand and remember.
So the last task of the day was to invent a story and visualize it. With nothing more than some simple circles, squiggly lines and lots of imagination, we were able to convey our stories with ease. The results were some catchy tales about empty phone batteries, juggling demanding job tasks or flying to the moon to solve a customer problem.
Conclusion: The power of visualizing Ideas
Turns out, visualizing ideas isn’t just for artists! Whether it’s brainstorming a new product or explaining a complex concept, simple visual tools can make ideas clearer and more memorable.
So, the next time you’re staring at a blank whiteboard or trying to figure out the best way to pitch an idea, just remember: grab a pencil, draw a circle, and let your imagination go wild.
Thanks, Mayra and Jürgen from We Are Cube – you’ve taught us that even non-artists can visualize ideas, and it’s all just a handful of simple shapes away!

FOSS4G has a wonderful community and a great variety of talks - have a look at the agenda to see the different topics under discussion.
Tri-lingual welcome, in Portugese, Spanish and English at FOSS4G 2024
The first two days were workshops, and I attended XYZ Cloud MAPPing 101 presented by Dennis Bauszus, and Community Drone Mapping by Ivan Buendi?a Gayton. In some ways I find the workshops the most useful element of the conference because it gives you time to dig in to a specific piece of software and learn some new skills, something I am quite poor at doing during my usual ‘day job’! I learnt some new useful skills in both workshops. Dennis has also shared the XYZ Mapping workshop materials if you have more discipline than me(!) and can work through it on your own:
- More details on the app itself
- Start with Getting started
- Then look at the workshop
The Drone workshop was also fascinating, and Ivan did a great job of both teaching us how to fly a drone (easier than I thought) and how to help local communities leverage the power of drones (& wider GIS skills) for their own benefit.
The main conference itself was in the Hanger Convention Centre and it was a great international conference. The laid back approach of FOSS4G always creates a lovely atmosphere and it was a great opportunity to get to know new people in the FOSS4G world, and catch up with people I have met at previous events. Community is one of the key things that I love about this group, with people very willing to help each other out. Uber is a key method of transportation in Brazil, and with a number of the evening social events in the city centre, we usually clubbed together at the hotel reception for an Uber to get us there, and back afterwards!
The variety of talks was incredible, with fascinating applications of FOSS4G tools, discussions on the interaction of academia and FOSS4G and personal reflections on people’s FOSS4G journeys. I particularly Kim Durante’s talk on FAIR Principles for Geospatial Data Curation which might have some very useful ideas for a project I am working on at the moment, and Veronica Andreo’s talk, From field biology to the GRASS GIS board - an open source journey about how she got involved in the GRASS GIS project.
I met one lady from Brazil and this was her first international, English speaking conference. She was really enjoying herself and it was a great introduction to the FOSS4G community for her.
One thing that came across to me was the variety of open source projects, and how some projects seem to be doing very similar things. Two examples that come to mind are QField and Mergin Maps, both of which allow users to collect data in a QGIS project in the field on their phone, and process that data back in the office. Another pair would be QGIS and GRASS GIS, both arguably great quality Desktop GIS tools, and there are many other examples too.
Initially I wondered why there were so many similar tools like this, when it might make more sense to combine effort and focus on one tool, rather than splitting our effort over two? However after a bit of reflection I discovered a) that often two similar tools have differences that make them more useful to different audiences. For example, QField is a more flexible field data collection tool, and Mergin Maps is easier to get up and running with. Also, b) having multiple tools reflects the market approach of encouraging development and innovation, with the best tool ‘winning’. In this context winning is not by having the highest revenues or the highest profits, but by having communities of users and developers. If a project doesn’t have a good group of users and/or a good group of developers interested in keeping the project up to date, then gradually it will fall out of use. I was not expecting to see an example of a capitalist based market in the open source community, but here it is!
I also had the opportunity to met Katja Haferkorn, who is the coordinator for FOSSGIS e.V. FOSSGIS e.V. is the OSGeo Local Chapter for German-speaking countries - D-A-CH, i.e. Germany, Austria and the german speaking part of Switzerland. FOSSGIS e.V. is also the German local chapter for OpenStreetMap. FOSSGIS e.V. is quite unique in that they are a local chapter who has a paid coordinator - Katja - and it was fascinating to hear her experiences. As OSGeo:UK Chair, one of the questions I asked her was about diversity within Local Chapters, and OSGeo as a whole. This is an issue for them as well and it is a aspect of membership that has been challenging the whole community for a while. Katja has written a great blog post about the conference. It is in German, but Google Translate does a reasonable job of translating it into English.
Working at the Code Sprint, thanks to Felipe Barros for the photo
The last two days of the conference was the Code Sprint. This is a chance to meet people working on different open source GIS projects and learn how to contribute to different elements of the projects. I had a great chat with Silvina Meritano and Andrés Duhour about using R as a GIS. Silvina was keen to develop her mapping skills in R, and Andrés had already developed an R package (which he presented at the conference: osmlanduseR) and spent a bit of time learning about and contributing to the new
tmaplibrary examples.Tmapversion 4 is coming out (blog post coming soon!) and I needed to updated my material for this new version. I also spent some time looking at the Las Calles De Las Mujeres project, which looks at the proportion of streets named after women (rather than men) in a range of Spanish speaking countries. Silvina and I had a go at creating a version in R that could automate some more of the process to apply this to different cities in English speaking countries.The internet connection at the code sprint was a little variable, so we had some challenges and had to resort to using the “sneaker net” occasionally - using a USB stick to transfer data between us! Fortunately we never had to resort to playing truco - a card game played in Argentina when the internet doesn’t work and you have nothing else to do!
Conference group photo
Thanks very much to everyone involved in organising the conference. Many more photos are on Flickr. The conference was a fantastic experience, and if you ever have the opportunity to go to a FOSS4G conference, anywhere, do take it!

GeoServer Team: GeoServer 2025 Roadmap
sur Planet OSGeoHappy new year and welcome to 2025 from the GeoServer team!
Last year we started something different for our project - sharing our 2024 roadmap plans with our community and asking for resources (participation and funding) to accomplish some challenging goals. We would like to provide an update for 2025 and a few words on our experience in 2024.
The GeoServer project is supported and maintained thanks to the hard work of volunteers and the backing of public institutions and companies providing professional support.
GeoServer was started in 2001 by a non-profit technology incubator. Subsequent years has seen the project supported by larger companies with investors and venture capital. This support is no longer available - and without this cushion we must rely on our community to play a greater role in the success of the project.
We are seeking a healthy balance in 2025 and are asking for support in the following areas:
-
Maintenance: The GeoServer team uses extensive automation, quality assurance tools, and policy of dropping modules to “right size” the project to match developer resources.
However maintenance costs for software markedly increased in 2024 as did time devoted to security vulnerabilities. This causes the components used by GeoServer to be updated more frequently, and with greater urgency.
?? Community members can answer questions on geoserver-user forum, reproduce issues as they are reported, and verify fixes.
?? Developers are encouraged to get started by reviewing pull-requests to learn what is needed, and then move on to fixing issues.
-
Security Vulnerabilities: GeoServer works with an established a coordinated vulnerability disclosure policy, with clear guidelines for individuals to particpate based on trust, similar to how committers are managed. Our 2024 experience with CVE-2024-36401 highlights the importance of this activity for our community and service providers.
?? Trusted volunteers can help mind geoserver-security email list, and help reproduce vulnerabilities as they are reported. We also seek developer capacity and funding to address confirmed vulnerabilities.
-
Releases: Regular release and community testing is a key success factor for open source projects and is an important priority for GeoServer. Peter has done a great job updating the release instructions, and many of the tasks are automated, making this activity far easier for new volunteers.
?? Developers and Service Providers are asked to make time available to to assist with the release process.
Asking our community to test release candidates ahead of each major release has been discontinued due to lack of response. The GeoServer team operates with a time-boxed release model so it is predictable when testing will be expected.
?? Community members and Service Providers are asked to help test nightly builds ahead of major releases in March and April.
-
Testing: Testing of new functionality and technology updates is an important quality assurance activity We have had some success asking downstream projects directly to test when facing technical-challenges in 2023.
?? We anticipate extensive testing will be required for GeoServer 3 and ask everyone to plan some time to test out nightly builds with your own data and infrastructure during the course of this activity.
-
Sponsorship: In 2023 we made a deliberate effort to “get over being shy” and ask for financial support, setting up a sponsorship page, and listing sponsors on our home page.
The response has not been in keeping with the operational costs of our project and we seek ideas on input on an appropriate approach.
?? We ask for your financial assistance in 2025 (see bottom of page for recommendations).
The above priorities of maintenance, testing and sponsorship represent the normal operations of an open-source project. This post is provided as a reminder, and a call to action for our community.
2025 Roadmap Planning CITE CertificationOur CITE Certification was lost some years ago, due to vandalism of a build server, and we would like to see certification restored.
OGC CITE Certification is important for two reasons:
- Provides a source of black-box testing ensuring that each GeoServer release behaves as intended.
- Provides a logo and visibility for the project helping to promote the use of open standards.
Recent progress on this activity:
- As part of a Camptocamp organized OGCAPI - Features sprint Gabriel was able setup a GitHub workflow restoring the use of CITE testing for black-box testing of GeoServer. Gabriel focused on OGC API - Features certification but found WMS 1.1 and WCS 1.1 tests would also pass out of the box, providing a setup for running the tests in each new pull request.
- Andrea made further progress certifying the output produced by GeoServer, restoring the WMS 1.3, WFS 1.0 and WFS 1.1 tests, as well as upgrading the test engine to the latest production release. In addition, CITE tests that weren’t run in the past have been added, like WFS 2.0 and GeoTIFF, while other new tests are in progress, like WCS 2.0, WMTS 1.0 and GeoPackage.
- The Open Source Geospatial Foundation provides hosting for OSGeo Projects. Peter is looking into this opportunity which would allow the project to be certified and once again be a reference implementation.
?? Please reach out on the developer forum and ask how you can help support this activity.
GeoServer 3GeoServer 3 is being developed to address crucial challenges and ensure that GeoServer remains a reliable and secure platform for the future.
Staying up-to-date with the latest technology is no longer optional — it’s essential. Starting with spring-framework-6, each update requiring several others to occur at the same time.
Our community is responding to this challenge but needs your support to be successful:
-
Brad and David have made considerable progress on Wicket UI updates over the course of 2024, and with Steve’s effort on Content Security Policy compliance (CSP headers are enabled by default in newer versions of Wicket).
-
Andreas Watermeyer (ITS Digital Solutions) has been steadily working on Spring Security 5.8 update and corresponding OAuth2 Secuirty Module replacements.
-
Consortium of Camptocamp, GeoSolutions and GeoCat have responded to our roadmap challenge with a bold GeoServer 3 Crowdfunding. The crowd funding is presently in phase one collecting pledges, when goal is reached phase two will collect funds and start development.
Check out the crowdfunding page for details, faq, including overview of project plan.
?? Pledge support for GeoServer 3 Crowdfunding using email or form.
?? Developers please reach out on the developer forum if you have capacity to work on this activity.
?? Testers GeoServer 3 will need testing with your data and environment over the course of development.
Service ProvidersService providers bring GeoServer technology to a wider audience. We recognize core-contributors who take on an ongoing responsibility for the GeoServer project on our home page, along with a listing of commercial support on our website. We encourage service providers offering GeoServer support to be added to this list.
Helping meet project roadmap planning goals and objectives is a good way for service providers to gain experience with the project and represent their customers in our community. We recognize service providers that contribute to the sustainability of GeoServer as experienced providers.
?? We encourage service providers to directly take project maintenance and testing activities, and financially support the project if they do not have capacity to participate directly.
Sponsorship OpportunitiesThe GeoServer Project Steering Committee uses your financial support to fund maintenance activities, code sprints, and research and development that is beyond the reach of an individual contributor.
GeoServer recognizes your financial support on our home page, sponsorship page and in release notes and presentations. GeoServer is part of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation and your financial support of the project is reflected on the OSGeo sponsorship page.
Recommendations:
- Individuals can use Donate via GitHub Sponsors to have their repository badged as supporting OSGeo.
- Individuals who offer GeoServer services should consider $50 USD a month to be listed as a bronze Sponsor on the OSGeo website.
- Organisations using GeoServer are encouraged to sponsor $50 USD a month to be listed as a bronze sponsor on the OSGeo website.
- Organisations that offer GeoServer services should consider $250 a month to be listed as a silver sponsor on the OSGeo website.
?? For instructions on sponsorship see how to Sponsor via Open Source Geospatial Foundation.

OSGeo Announcements: [OSGeo-Announce] pgRouting graduates OSGeo Incubation
sur Planet OSGeoOSGeo welcomes pgRouting to its growing ecosystem of projects.
OSGeo is pleased to announce that pgRouting has graduated from incubation and is now a full-fledged OSGeo project.
pgRouting is an open-source extension in the PostGIS / PostgreSQL geospatial database, providing geospatial routing functionality.
Graduating incubation includes fulfilling requirements for open community operation, a responsible project governance model, code provenance, and general good project operation. Graduation is the OSGeo seal of approval for a project and gives potential users and the community at large an added confidence in the viability and safety of the project.
The pgRouitng Steering Committee collectively recognizes this as a big progressive step for the project.
pgRouting has been an active contributor and participant to various open source initiatives inside and outside OSGeo such as FOSS4G, OSGeo Code Sprints, OGC Code Sprints, Joint OSGeo-OGC-ASF (Apache Software Foundation) Code Sprints, and Google Summer of Code.
The pgRouitng PSC says, “We are excited about the future of the project within the OSGeo’s project ecosystem. We have been working to have a community of developers for the project sustainability. It is our honor to be an OSGeo project”.
The pgRouting PSC would like to thank our mentor, Angelos Tzotsos, and the OSGeo Incubation Committee for their assistance during this Incubator process.
Congratulations to the pgRouting community!
About pgRouting
pgRouting extends the PostGIS / PostgreSQL geospatial database to provide geospatial routing functionality. It is written in C++, C and SQL.
It is an open source PostgreSQL extension which implements several graph algorithms.
pgRouting library contains the following features:
- All Pairs Shortest Path algorithms: Floyd-Warshall and Johnson’s Algorithm
- Shortest Path and bi-directional algorithms: Dijkstra, A*
- Graph components, analysis and contraction algorithms.
- Traveling Sales Person
- Graph components, analysis and contraction algorithms.
- Shortest Path with turn restrictions
pgRouting is able to process geospatial and non geospatial graphs.
It’s processing extension execute a number of existing graph algorithms based on reliable software and libraries. It is written in such a way that gives the ability to hook a new graph algorithm in a clean way including the connection code to the database.
The pgRouting functions are standardized in terms of parameter types and names, decreasing the learning curve of a user.
pgRouting is very flexible with graph data input, in an inner SQL query and output with standardized column names, so you can process almost any kind of graph data stored in the database.

Mappery: Election Results
sur Planet OSGeo
Saw this election results map at the FDR Museum a couple of days before the 2024 US Election. This is what I would call an overwhelming vote for one candidate!
The blurb says
“FDR won a historic mandate in 1932.
After three years of economic depression, Americans decisively rejected President Hoover and the ruling Republican Party. Roosevelt defeated Hoover in a landslide, and Democrats seized control of Congress for the first time in 16 years.
They dominated the new Senate by an overwhelming margin of 60 to 35 and enjoyed a 310 to 117 majority in the House.
Voters handed Franklin Roosevelt and the Democrats a blank check. Their only demand was action. What the public-and most Democratic leaders-did not know was what form that action would take.”You could reword this to fit today’s circumstances.

Mappery: Redlining
sur Planet OSGeo
I spotted this map in Franklin Delano Roosevelt Museum, which had a special exhibition on FDR and Black African Americans.
Redlining Map of Poughkeepsie, New York and its Suburbs, March 1938
This redlining map of Poughkeepsie was among the hundreds of “Residential Security Maps” of urban areas created by the Home Owners’ Loan Corporation.The maps indicated mortgage lending risk by neighborhood type, including residential, commercial, and industrial areas. Residential districts were marked with different colors to indicate the level of risk in mortgage lending. Streets and neighborhoods that included minority (especially African American) and immigrant populations were often marked in RED as “Fourth Grade” or “Hazardous”— the riskiest category for federally insured homeowner loans. For example, in the BLUE area marked B3 on this map there is a small sliver of RED along Glenwood Avenue. Notes that accompany the map explain why: “Glenwood Avenue, which is shown in red, was an old Negro settlement before this area was built up.” Similarly, in the BLUE area marked B2 Pershing Avenue appears in RED. The mapmaker’s notes indicate: “Pershing Avenue (marked in red) has a number of negro families. Houses on this street are very poor and of little value.”
Not a lot seems to have changed!

Sean Gillies: Late fall biking
sur Planet OSGeoI've decided to try to ride a bike for exercise more in 2025. Run harder, but run less, with more active recovery and low-intensity outings on a bike. At least until June, when I need to start building the running and hiking endurance that I will need in September.
I got a new bike to make this more fun. It's a Rocky Mountain Solo C50 and I bought it from my favorite local bike shop, Drake Cycles, last Saturday. The first thing I did was pedal it from home up Spring Creek Trail to Pineridge Open Space and ride some laps around the pond. It sure beats riding my commuter bike on dirt and gravel. I haven't bought a new bike or any new bike components in 10 years. Electronic shifters feel like magic to me.
A dark blue-green bike with wide drop handlebars leaning on an interpretive sign in a dry valley under and overcast sky.
So far this week I've done two rides from the barn where we keep our horses while Bea has been doing her equestrian stuff. One at sunset and one at sunrise. I've been three miles east of the barn and seven miles north of the barn, following roads on the PLSS section grid.
A dirt road at dusk, headlights of an approaching truck, and orange sunset glow behind the Rocky Mountains.
In the neighborhood of the barn, the ground is completely free of snow and quite dry. Passing trucks raise medium density clouds of dust. There are scattered homes out here, and vehicles going to and fro periodically. There are large construction sites, too, which can mean a wave of large rigs pulling trailers.
A rolling dirt road and brown grassland with snow-dusted mountains in the background.
I've got a lot to learn about this kind of riding. The right tire pressure for road and trail conditions, for example, and how to get in and out of the drops smoothly. How to descend and corner safely, and how to survive washboard surfaces. Dressing, too. I'm riding at a low intensity and don't generate as much heat as I do when I run.
One of my favorite things about riding further east is the panoramic views of the Front Range peaks. I can see Pikes Peak, Mount Evans, Longs Peak, and the Mummy Range, a span of 200 kilometers, from the top of every rise.

Sean Gillies: Productive running
sur Planet OSGeoAt last, I'm less than 1% injured and am getting back into regular and productive running. We've had a long stretch of mild and dry weather here, which makes it easy to just lace up and go. I ran four times last week, including a nice hilly run in Lory State Park, and will run three times this week. Thursday I did some harder running and a bunch of strides for the first time since June.
Some faint numbness lingers on my left quad, but my hip, butt, and leg are otherwise just fine. My doctor prescribed a course of prednisolone in early November to calm down my pinched nerve and that seemed to banish the last of my Achilles tendonitis as well. My right heel and calf haven't been pain-free in a long time. It's really nice to feel good.

Free and Open Source GIS Ramblings: GeoParquet in QGIS – smaller & faster files for the win!
sur Planet OSGeotldr; Tired of working with large CSV files? Give GeoParquet a try!
“Parquet is a powerful column-oriented data format, built from the ground up to as a modern alternative to CSV files.” [https:]]
(Geo)Parquet is both smaller and faster than CSV. Additionally, (Geo)Parquet columns are typed. Text, numeric values, dates, geometries retain their data types. GeoParquet also stores CRS information and support in GIS solutions is growing.
I’ll be giving a quick overview using AIS data in GeoPandas 1.0.1 (with pyarrow) and QGIS 3.38 (with GDAL 3.9.2).
File sizeThe example AIS dataset for this demo contains ~10 million rows with 22 columns. I’ve converted the original zipped CSV into GeoPackage and GeoParquet using GeoPandas to illustrate the huge difference in file size: ~470 MB for GeoParquet and zipped CSV, 1.6 GB for CSV, and a whopping 2.6 GB for GeoPackage:
Reading performance
Pandas and GeoPandas both support selective reading of files, i.e. we can specify the specific columns to be loaded. This does speed up reading, even from CSV files:
Whole file Selected columns CSV 27.9 s 13.1 s Geopackage 2min 12s 
20.2 s GeoParquet 7.2 s 4.1 s Indeed, reading the whole GeoPackage is getting quite painful.
Here’s the code I used for timing the read times:
As you can see, these times include the creation of the GeoPandas.GeoDataFrame.
If we don’t need a GeoDataFrame, we can read the files even faster:
Non-spatial DataFramesGeoParquet files can be read by non-GIS tools, such as Pandas. This makes it easier to collaborate with people who may not be familiar with geospatial data stacks.
And reading plain DataFrames is much faster than creating GeoDataFrames:
But back to GIS …
GeoParquet in QGISIn QGIS, GeoParquet files can be loaded like any other vector layer, thanks to GDAL:
Loading the GeoParquet and GeoPackage files is pretty quick, especially if we zoom into a small region of interest (even though, unfortunately, it doesn’t seem possible to restrict the columns to further speed up loading). Loading the CSV, however, is pretty painful due to the lack of spatial indexing, which becomes apparent very quickly in the direct comparison:
(You can see how slowly the red CSV points are rendering. I didn’t have the patience to include the whole process in the GIF.)
As far as I can tell, my QGIS 3.38 ‘Grenoble’ does not support writing to or editing of GeoParquet files. So I’m limited to reading GeoParquet for now.
However, seeing how much smaller GeoParquets are compared to GeoPackages (and also faster to write), I hope that we will soon get the option to export to GeoParquet.
For now, I’ll start by converting my large CSV files to GeoParquet using GeoPandas.

Sean Gillies: Python typing mulligan
sur Planet OSGeoThis is why I've been hesitant to add type hints to Fiona, Rasterio, and Shapely. David Lord on missteps and misgivings:
I want a "start over" tool for type annotating a Python library. I started with Flask as untyped code, then added annotations until mypy stopped complaining. But this didn't mean the annotations were _correct_. Over time I've fixed various reported issues. I feel like if I could start from scratch again, I'd probably get closer to correct with the experience I've gained. But removing all existing annotations and ignores is too time consuming on its own. #python

Sean Gillies: Let's fucking go
sur Planet OSGeoI saw a physical therapist yesterday. I had a virtual visit with my physician today. I had a 2 mile hike in the sun around a local reservoir. Now I'm listening to the Glenn Branca Orchestra on The Frow Show and my take on my health is: let's go!
The expert consensus is that I did not injure my spine, but that muscles in the left side of my hip have clamped down on a nerve. I'm going to proceed as if that is true, foam rolling, walking, and running through the pain, and not worrying about my spine cracking in pieces. I do have a little bit of numbness in my upper left leg and so I will not directly dive into long technical downhill runs. I expect that I'll resolve that soon.

Jackie Ng: Announcing: mapguide-rest 1.0 RC6.1
sur Planet OSGeoI've taken a momentary break from our (admittedly) glacial pace of MapGuide development to put out another release of mapguide-rest
This release includes the following changes:
- Fix missing reverse routing on selection overview
- Fix bad feature query preparation when querying against watermarked layers
- Relax strict-typing on MgReaderToGeoJsonWriter::FeatureToGeoJson() so that it can work with MgPaginatedFeatureReader allowing pagination to work again
- Added missing properties parameter to swagger defn for session-based feature selection route
We now return to regularly-scheduled programming of trying to get MapGuide Open Source 4.0 to the finish line.
As for mapguide-rest, I envision at least once more major RC *after* the final release of MapGuide Open Source 4.0 before finally wrapping things up on development work and pulling the trigger on the mapguide-rest 1.0 final release. Enough of this RC-after-RC business! -

Harry shared this map that he spotted on his holiday in Brazil “I also saw this nice wall in a restaurant on Ilhabella which maybe scores better on the “maps as art” criteria.”
I like the way that the land is cut out of the plaster exposing the brick.
