schema resolution
Geoserver App-Schema Set-Up: In Progress
One hurdle to using Geoserver to deploy AASG Geothermal Data services is the resolution of schemas. Creating additonal configuration files for Geoserver allows the use of "app-schemas" which will automatically download the indicated web-accessible schema (.xsd) and be referenced in the GetFeature request. This would solve a problem with service deployment using ArcGIS, where custom schema locations is necessary.
This blog will document the problems and break-throughs I've had so far in implementing Geoserver app-schemas. I have not yet been able to get schema resolution, but would like to make a post so that others can take into account my work thus far and chime in about other ideas or advances. This work is based on Tomcat running Geoserver, set up on an Oracle VM VirtualBox. The data for the services are pulled from a PostGIS database.
A few housekeeping tips I learned the hard way, for starters:
