Announced as part of a community-driven crowd funding effort\, GeoServer 3 seeks to modernize the platform’s foundatio n to ensure it meets the growing demands of the geospatial community.\n\nW e’ll first analyze the GeoServer 2.x status quo\, and the effect of casc ading changes that a “simple” Spring upgrade caused\, turning the acti vity into a cross project overhaul\, and how the large effort required got socialized and eventually brought to implementation via in-kind volunteer ing and a crowdfunding campaign driven by Camp2Camp\, GeoCat and GeoSoluti ons.\n\nWe will explore the planned milestones in the transition to GeoSer ver 3. These include critical refactorings\, such as replacing aging libra ries\, adopting modern Java frameworks\, and integrating support for the l atest versions of GeoTools and GeoWebCache. Key technical advancements inc lude the evolution and integration of ImageN for improved raster data proc essing\, the migration from Wicket 7 to Wicket 10 for a modernized and mor e secure web user interface\, and the adoption of Jakarta EE and Spring 6 to support enhanced security\, scalability\, and long-term compatibility w ith modern Java ecosystems.\n\nJoin us to investigate progress\, reflect o n the lessons learned\, and get inspired by what’s possible with GeoServ er 3—a project that continues to empower geospatial professionals and or ganizations worldwide.

While not an official OGC standard\, this open specificatio n has been widely adopted\, making it a staple of web cartography. This pr esentation delves into GeoServer's evolving capabilities to serve Mapbox v ector tiles\, emphasizing recent enhancements and best practices.\n\nWe wi ll explore how GeoServer leverages SLD and CSS to define the contents of v ector tiles\, ensuring tailored and efficient data delivery. New configura tion options\, such as label point generation\, attribute selection and ge ometry coalescing\, will be highlighted as tools to control and optimize t ile outputs. Practical advice will also be provided for streamlining vecto r tile generation\, helping users create seamless and scalable workflows.\ n\nThe session will conclude with a look at how vector tiles can serve as an input for generating high-quality base maps in various coordinate refer ence systems. Using OpenMapTiles styles and Planetiler\, we will demonstra te how to produce visually appealing\, multi-projection base maps\, unlock ing the full potential of vector tiles for diverse applications.\n\nWhethe r you're building interactive maps or generating custom base maps\, this t alk will equip you with the knowledge and tools to make the most of GeoSer ver's vector tile capabilities.

The authentica tion part will cover the various supported authentication protocols (e.g. basic/digest authentication) and identity providers (such as local config files\, databases\, LDAP servers\, OAuth2/OpenID)\, covering also cases in which the same source may play both roles (OAuth2\, OpenId connect).\n\nI t will explain how to combine various authentication mechanisms in a singl e comprehensive authentication tool\, as well as provide examples of custo m authentication plugins for GeoServer\, integrating it in a home-grown se curity architecture. We’ll then move on to authorization\, describing th e GeoServer pluggable authorization mechanism\, and comparing it with an e xternal proxy-based solution. We will explain the default service and data security system\, reviewing its benefits and limitations.\n\nFinally\, we ’ll explore the advanced authorization provider\, GeoFence. The differen t levels of integration with GeoServer will be presented\, from the simple and seamless direct integration to the more sophisticated external setup. Finally\, we’ll explore GeoFence’s powerful authorization rules using :\n\n- The current user and its roles.\n- The OGC services\, workspace\, l ayer\, and layer group.\n- CQL read and write filters.\n- Attribute select ion.\n- Cropping raster and vector data to areas of interest.

GeoServer has long been committed to open standards\, historica lly running CITE tests to validate its OGC services. However\, due a build server vandalism event\, daily checks for CITE compliance got lost.\n\nTh e GeoServer PSC eventually sponsored a new way for running automated tests \, which succeeded\, but eventually failed to achieve completion of making the test pass again\, and to reinstate checks as a daily\, operational ac tivity.\n\nA turning point came during the 2024 OGC API Features sprint\, which served as the catalyst for reinstating CITE test automation\, for OG C API Features itself\, along with a couple of other services that did not require further work. \n\nRecognizing the importance of standards complia nce for users and the broader geospatial community\, the GeoServer team be gan adding more more services to the effort\, performing a combination of fixes in the GeoTools and GeoServer projects\, as well as a productive col laboration with OGC to fix some issues in the CITE tests themselves.\n\nBy leveraging GitHub Actions\, the project now continuously validates compli ance across a broad spectrum of supported services—including WMS\, WMTS\ , WFS\, WCS\, and OGC API Features—and widely used data formats such as GeoTIFF\, GeoPackage\, and KML. These tests are now a key part of the pull request workflow\, ensuring that new changes maintain or improve complian ce.\n\nFinally\, the presentation outlines the roadmap for achieving re-ce rtification\, which includes formal validation with OGC over a well known server\, which might also help GeoServer become a new reference implementa tion as well. By re-establishing certification\, GeoServer aims to reinfor ce its reputation as a reliable\, standards-compliant platform for geospat ial data and visualization services.

GeoServ er is an Open Source web service for publishing your geospatial data using industry standards for vector\, raster\, and mapping. It powers a number of open source projects like GeoNode and geOrchestra and it is widely used throughout the world by organizations to manage and disseminate data at s cale. We integrated GeoServer with some well-known big data technologies l ike Kafka and Databricks\, and deployed the systems in Azure cloud\, to ha ndle use cases that required near-realtime displaying of the latest AIS re ceived data on a map as well background batch processing of historical Mar itime AIS data. \n\nThis presentation will describe the architecture put i n place\, and the challenges that GeoSolutions had to overcome to publish big data through GeoServer OGC services (WMS\, WFS\, and WPS)\, finding th e correct balance that maximized ingestion performance and visualization p erformance. We had to integrate with a streaming processing platform that took care of most of the processing and storing of the data in an Azure da ta lake that allows GeoServer to efficiently query for the latest availabl e features\, respecting all the authorization policies that were put in pl ace. A few custom GeoServer extensions were implemented to handle the aut horization complexity\, the advanced styling needs\, and big data integrat ion needs.

Some of specs are fina lized and complete enough that they have a GeoServer supported extensions\ , while others are provided as community modules.
