[GeoNode-devel] QueryBuilder for Download Layer functionality

Fri Jun 3 06:11:14 PDT 2016

Dear all,
very nice tool, it looks promising and quite useful too.

It would be possible to have some more details on its implementation and
how it interacts with GeoServer?

In the past we <http://www.geo-solutions.it> had some headaches building a
complete and reliable download plugin for GeoServer.
In the end we implemented it as a WPS process capable of subsetting through
several strategies (intersect or crop) all kind of datasets (both raster
and vectorial). It is also capable of reprojecting the outcome, estimate
the download size before starting the process, prepare the outcome ZIP
archive (along with associated layer styles) asynchrounsly also and provide
back a progress and/or a download link. It is also able to send an email to
the requester when the file is ready. It was thought to allow GeoServer
subsetting and downloading reliably also big datadsets and manage different
download requests without overloading the server.

The plugin is available as a community plugin here
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/community/wps-download/index.html
code available here
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/tree/master/src/community/wps-download

Maybe you want to consider the use of such plugin to extend the
capabilities of your query plugin instead of relying only on CQL filters
(if I understood correctly how the tool currently works).

If so we can envisage the inclusion of the WPS Download process into the
official distribution of the GeoNode-GeoServer-ext package.

Best Regards,
Alessio Fabiani.
