Geoprocessing Community

Welcome to the 52°North Geoprocessing Community! We provide ready-to-use software as well as prototype implementations to enable processing of geodata in Spatial Data Infrastructures.

Web Processing

This community is dedicated to:

  • Web Processing Service (WPS): A web service for standardized processing of geodata.
  • WPS-Udig Client: A plugin for the uDig open-source client to perform geoprocessing on the web by means of an WPS.
  • WPS-JumpClient: A plugin for the Jump client to perform geoprocessing on the web by means of an WPS.
  • WPS Client API: Generic Java API for WPS requests.
  • Cloud Computing: Concepts and monitoring as well as autoscaling software for hybrid-clouds.
  • Geoprocessing Workflows: Clients and Services for orchestrating WPS services.
  • OSM2NetworkDataset: OpenStreetMap for network analyses in ArcGIS.

Our main goals in developing these components are:

  • Innovative Software and leadership of thought
  • Compliance to existing standards.
  • Flexibility to allow easy customization.
  • Extensibility to grow with future requirements.
