Hey guys & girls, So I'm working on making a good interface to Mapnik (via WMS) from Drupal. It has become sort of a priority to have Drupal be aware of the actual data involved on the server - so that the coordinates of surface features, etc., are located in the mapping stack (Mapnik, PostGIS) instead of Drupal's database and schemas.
So I'm considering setting up FeatureServer and a WFS interface to query those details, and I'm interested to see what other people have done in this area. Since WFS isn't provided by Mapnik, is there a standalone server that is commonly used by the community for this purpose? WFS seems like a great solution to the problem here (sidenote: not directly querying PostGIS since the mapping server != the drupal server in many cases). Thanks for any experiences or insight! I'm really interested in getting a good stack built and contributing back when I make some progress. Thanks!
