MapML for GeoServer Released

Refractions has made a MapML Community Module adding MapML support into GeoServer in partnerhip with NRCan. Refractions is pleased to release this community module to the GeoServer community today.

Users can get the latest nightly build here and find the documentation on how to get started using it here.

Map Markup Language (MapML) is a text-based format which allows map authors to encode map information as hypertext documents exchanged over the Uniform Interface of the Web. The format definition is still a work-in-progress by the Maps for HTML W3C Community Group, but various tools to work with the format already exist, including a Leaflet-based map viewer. For more information on MapML refer to the Maps for HTML Community Group.
