GeoServer does support several vendor options which I will list.

There doesn't seem to be any documentation or official list anywhere. I guess I will start a page on the wiki so they have a place to live.

Here are two vendor options I have found:

<TextSymbolizer>
    <VendorOption name="group">true</VendorOption>
    <VendorOption name="spaceAround">5</VendorOption>
</TextSymbolizer>

Group will render only one label if several have the same value. This is useful for roads that are chopped up and you don't want a label for every piece of the same road.

SpaceAround will give a buffer space around the label so it doesn't collide or overlap with other labels. The value is in pixels.

Hi,

I saw the VendorOption in one of the wiki pages, but when I tried group in
my SLD, GeoServer does not render only one label. I am wondering whether it
is because of the version of GeoServer I am using. Which version supports
the VendorOption group? I am using GeoServer 1.3.0-RC2.

Regards,
Lee Wai See

I know the later 1.3 series supports the vendor options, RC2 is probably too old. Try the latest, RC5, or the official 1.4.0 release coming out in the next day.
