| 10 | == Overview == |
| 11 | |
| 12 | The purpose of this integration is to allow users to upload a GeoTIFF file or a zipped Shapefile to a metadata and deploy that data as a map service on !GeoServer. After upload, the user will see a button that allows her/him to trigger this deployment. The metadata will be adjusted accordingly and the Capabilities document of !GeoServer will provide a link back to the !GeoNetwork metadata record. |

| 29 | == Motivations == |
| 30 | Integration of a map server allows users to quickly configure their data for interactive access without the need to go through the complexities of setting up and configuring a web map server. !GeoServer already is embedded with !GeoNetwork and uses the same Java technology making it easy to deploy both applications on any operating system. |

| 34 | |
| 35 | === Backwards Compatibility Issues === |
| 36 | The functionality should not have any impact on other systems harvesting or connecting to the specific catalog that has this functionality implemented. |
| 37 | |
| 38 | == Risks == |
| 39 | Due to the limited resources, complex scenario's will not be dealt with and not all data may be suitable for use. Both GeoTiff and Shapefiles require to be properly formatted before they are uploaded. |
| 40 | The integration will only work with !GeoServer instances that are embedded in the !GeoNetwork release. External !GeoServer instances are not immediately foreseen to be supported. |
