[Geoserver-devel] starting 3D work

Hi,

Thanks for your comments.

  1. support for a 3D WFS Bounding Box,

Do you want to filter data by a 3D BB on GetFeature requests for
example? or do you want to have a 3D BB computed and returned by the
server, for example, in the GetCapabilities?

Exactly this: Filter data by a 3D BB on GetFeature requests

  1. WFS reprojection of 3D Point and 3D Linestring with a correct
    adjustment of the third dimension.

The proj4 re-projection is done with all the 3 coordinates, as far as I
know.

That is interesting to know, do you know if there are there any unit tests that use this feature?

I will also investigate if 1D geometries can be referenced against 3D
geometries and can be reprojected to 3d.

Like overlaying some imagery over an existing 3D? This might be done
before publishing (pre-processing), or can be done in runtime on the
client side (if you use a thick client, like a 3D virtual globe, for
example).

I am mainly focusing on WFS (more specifically, it will all have to be compatible with app-schema complex features) so it really is abstract stuff rather than images. What needs to happen is a 1D geometry like for example a distance down a borehole being referenced against (for example) a 3d line string.

Cheers
Niels
