Yes, I think the SLD editor would fit in well inside a super Context Editor.
We should be able to: Search catalogs, capability docs, gml, kml, drawing tools to create layers in an OWS Context doc. The vector layers should be able to be styled with SLD editing. The layers should be able to be transformed and exported as GML/KML/etc --- After building the Context (the data) then we can build the map. Have tick box selection of widgets and models. Use drag and drop functions if you want to get really fancy. Result is a config.xml file. Steven M. Ottens wrote: > Hi all > > Google SoC has been announced and OSGeo is joining.
