Synopsis

If you are a GIS professional who intends to explore advanced techniques and get more out of GeoServer deployment rather than simply delivering good looking maps. Furthermore, this book will teach you advanced topics to enable you to provide a platform for server-side spatial analysis and deploy GeoServer in Enterprise deployments. Familiarity with GIS and the concepts of web mapping servers would be helpful, but is not essential.
