[Geoserver-users] Question

How would I use geoserver to send information to a googlemaps page? Or if I have the google map api, can I pull in information from geoserver with relative ease?

~ Scott

GeoServer supports output in a couple of format (GeoRSS, KML) that you can import in Google Maps. (You can get a WMS request that gets the whole layer in either of these formats from the map preview page). Additionally, OpenLayers (http://openlayers.org/) is a nice open source JavaScript map that you can use to show data from GeoServer on top of Google Maps imagery.

Hope this helps,
David Winslow

You can also stick GeoWebCache in front of it:

http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/GeoWebCache

And then use
http://geowebcache.org/trac/wiki/google_maps

If you know the Google Maps API then "2." is all you're interested in on that page
