Hi,
I've a new activity starting up that would like topology to be delivered
through GML Topology. Given we use Geoserver WFS, Geotools will ultimately play
an important role. We will eventually want query's as well but suspect that
will be a WPS issue.
It is worth noting that in this case the Geometry data product is not the same
as the Topology data product - we don't need to know the rivers shape in order
to calculate interesting things about inflows and outflows. The topology is
thus not directly constructed from the geometry and is, and can be, delivered
all by itself. A Feature with only Topology information is likely.
I'd be interested in hearing experience from anyone who has taken a stab at or
considered implementing GML topology delivery through Geotools and Geoserver
WFS (or any other WFS server for that matter). Any pointers to any papers and
trials would also be welcomed - I have trolled the OGS interoperability test
beds and only found two references to this issue one in OWS3 and one in OWS4
(the latter being less relevant to my use-case).
Cheers,
Rob
