OGC geospatial web services: WFS, WMS, WMTS and CSW
deegree on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
deegree is an open source framework of OGC compliant geospatial web services. It publishes spatial data as standards based Web Feature Service (WFS), Web Map Service (WMS), Web Map Tile Service (WMTS) and Catalogue Service (CSW) endpoints, and it ships a browser based services console for administering workspaces, data sources and services. It is an OSGeo project and the server tier of a spatial data infrastructure: desktop GIS, web map clients and other OGC applications connect to it to fetch maps and features.
This image runs deegree 3.6.11 from the official upstream release on Apache Tomcat 10.1 under OpenJDK 17, both taken from Ubuntu's own package archive so they keep receiving security updates on your VM rather than being a hand unpacked vendor runtime that is never patched again. Tomcat is bound to loopback and fronted by nginx on port 80.
The services work the moment the VM boots, with no external service involved. A stock deegree ships an empty workspace and answers nothing until an administrator loads one. This image instead bundles deegree's own demo workspace for the US state of Utah and activates it, so a fresh VM answers real WFS, WMS and WMTS requests over local data straight away: municipalities, counties, roads, rivers, lakes and contour lines as shapefiles, plus elevation and orthophoto rasters, all held on the VM. The one remote layer the demo normally carries has been removed, so nothing in the request path calls out to a third party.
What is included
- deegree 3.6.11 on Apache Tomcat 10.1 under OpenJDK 17, both from Ubuntu's archive so security updates keep flowing to the whole stack
- A working OGC workspace on first boot serving WFS, WMS and WMTS over local Utah data
- Feature layers for municipalities, counties, roads, rivers, lakes and contours, plus elevation and orthophoto raster coverages
- Tomcat bound to loopback behind nginx on port 80, with unauthenticated health and readiness probes for load balancer checks
- The services console, the configuration REST API and the resource endpoints fenced behind a password generated uniquely for every VM
- deegree's own console password set to that per VM secret, so the console is never at an empty or default state
- No remote or third party service in the boot or request path
- The workspace, its configuration and its data on a dedicated 32 GiB Azure data disk
- A JVM heap sized from the VM's own memory on every first boot, so one image is correct on whatever size you launch
- Fully patched Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with unattended security updates enabled
- 24/7 cloudimg support
