- GeoServer is an open source software server written in Java that allows users to share and edit geospatial
data. GeoServer includes support for the OGC Filter expression language and the OGC Common Query Language
(CQL) as part of the Web Feature Service (WFS) and Web Map Service (WMS) protocols. CQL is also supported
through the Web Coverage Service (WCS) protocol for ImageMosaic coverages. Users are advised to upgrade to
