Hi OSGeo Folks! We are pleased to announce the 1.0.0 release of MapProxy.
MapProxy is a tile cache solution, but also offers many new and innovative features like full support for any WMS clients. MapProxy is actively developed and supported, it was released as Open Source in March 2010 under the GNU AGPL License 3.0, runs on Unix/Linux and Windows and is easy to install and to configure. More information can be found at: http://mapproxy.org/ The updated documentation: http://mapproxy.org/docs/1.0.0/ Here are some of the features that where added in the last year: Seeding-Tool: MapProxy comes with an advanced seeding tool that allows you to create, update and remove tiles for specific areas. You can use Shapefiles and other sources to define the geometries of these areas. The seed tool is also multithreaded and optimized to work with WMS services with large datasets. MapProxy also handles "empty" tiles (e.g. blue ocean) to save disk space. Complex WMS: MapProxy supports nested layer groups and each layer or layer group can be cached or cascaded. Cached layers can be 10-100 times faster. You can combine layers from different servers and make opaque layers transparent. It also supports GetLegendGraphics and GetFeatureInfo requests. Feature info responses can be transformed with XSLT scripts. You can mix all WMS versions, image formats and SRS: MapProxy will translate, convert and reproject on-the-fly if necessary. There is also a new interface that allows the integration of fine-grained user authorization. You can find more information about all features in the updated documentation http://mapproxy.org/docs/1.0.0/ You can join our mailing list if you have any questions: http://mapproxy.org/support.html Regards, Oliver -- Oliver Tonnhofer | Omniscale GmbH & Co KG | http://omniscale.de http://mapproxy.org | https://bitbucket.org/olt _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
