The GeoServer commercial support  page
offers a list of companies that can take on this kind of task.

As others, I'd urge you to come out with a specific list of features that
are missing. In GeoSolutions we did an analysis in the past and come up
with a variety of issues

   - Bits that could be exported to SLD, but are not (e.g., attribute
   dependent values and expressions)
   - Bits that are exported, but using invalid SLD syntax
   - Bits that cannot be exported, because there is no equivalent SLD syntax

The list is large, making an estimate is not very likely. Rather than "I
want to export everything possible",
approach the commercial support providers with a firm list of features you
need instead.

Cheers

Have you tried also the geocat bridge qgis plugin?

To start with you would need to clearly list exactly which features of the
SLD generated by QGIS that are not understood by GeoServer.

[Geoserver-users] Possible ways and costs for specific developments/improvements for GeoServer

2024-04-10 Thread Erik Böhm
Hello all, or rather hello developers!

In don't know if this is the right way to contact you. So if there is a better 
way, please give me a hint :)

My Question is:
While using GeoServer to publish our data via services, we experienced some 
bugs or rather lacks of features, e. g. the interpretation of some definitions 
in SLDs that were exported from QGIS.
The response/solution of the community to those issues has been to fund further 
development of those parts.

As some of those features are important for us, we are evaluating the option to 
take on this suggestion. In that sense, and because I did not find anything on 
the GeoServer Community sites, I wanted to ask how we could manage this, which 
options there would be and which would be the one preferred by you.
How would it work if we would hire a contractor and contribute these features 
to GeoServer?

And for the specific feature of the GeoServer being able to fully interpret all 
definitions in SLDs exported from QGIS, would you be able to guess the amount 
of work this would take? In that way, we maybe could estimate the costs of 
hiring a developer for this feature.

Thank you in advance!


With kind regards
