The interface implements WFS 2.0, WFS 1.1.0 and WFS 1.0.0 Standard and supports all WFS operations including Transaction.
Operations
The GetCapabilities operation is a request to a WFS server for a list of the operations and services, or capabilities, supported by that server.
DescribeFeatureType requests information about an individual feature type before requesting the actual data. Specifically, the operation will request a list of features and attributes for the given feature type, or list the feature types available.
The GetFeature operation returns a selection of features from the data source.
The Transaction operation can create, modify, and delete features published by a WFS. Each transaction will consist of zero or more Insert, Update, and Delete elements, with each transaction element performed in order
Service Interface Binding
The service Interface binding is compliant with EUROCONTROL Specification for SWIM Technical Infrastructure (TI) Yellow Profile
Network Interface Binding
The service shall use the network bindings of the SWIM TIYP IPv4 Secure Unicast
Messages
GeoServer provides a RESTful interface and simple HTTP calls. The service follows a synchronous request–response message exchange pattern over HTTPS using HTTP GET and POST methods. Service metadata is accessible via standard GetCapabilities operations, while geospatial content is retrieved using GetMap, GetFeature, and related OGC-defined operations. In case of processing or validation errors, the service returns appropriate HTTP status codes and OGC-compliant XML exception reports (e.g. ServiceExceptionReport or ExceptionReport).
