OpenGeo Suite Enterprise Edition - WAR bundle
=============================================

This archive contains the following software packages:

GeoServer
---------

GeoServer is a Java software server that allows users to share and
edit geospatial data. Designed for interoperability, it publishes
data from any major spatial data source using open standards.

GeoWebCache
-----------

GeoWebCache is a Java web application used to cache map tiles. It
implements various service interfaces in order to accelerate and
optimize map image delivery. It can also recombine tiles to work with
regular WMS clients.

GeoExplorer
-----------

GeoExplorer is a web application for composing and publishing maps.
Quickly assemble maps from GeoServer or any OGC Web Mapping Server (WMS)
and integrate with hosted maps such as Google Maps and OpenStreetMap.
GeoExplorer is based on the GeoExt framework and is built using GXP
components.

GeoEditor
---------

GeoEditor is a web application for editing geographic features. You can
edit any type of vector data, including attributes, when served through
the Web Feature Service (WFS) protocol. GeoEditor is based on the GeoExt
framework.

OpenGeo Dashboard
-----------------

The OpenGeo Dashboard is a web application for managing all aspects of
the OpenGeo Suite. It provides quick links to software status,
management pages, documentation, logs, and much more.

OpenGeo Recipe Book
-------------------

The OpenGeo Recipe Book contains code samples (or "recipes") to
facilitate the use of the OpenGeo Suite. These recipes are designed as
discrete pieces of functionality, to be starting points for creating
your own map application.

Installation
============

This bundle requires only a servlet container (such as Apache Tomcat or
Jetty) to be installed and running on your system. Simply copy the
content of this archive into the "webapps" directory of your servlet
container, and then restart. The OpenGeo Suite will automatically
deploy.

For example, if you have Tomcat running locally on port 8080, your
applications will be located at the following URLs:

http://localhost:8080/geoserver
http://localhost:8080/geowebcache
http://localhost:8080/geoexplorer
http://localhost:8080/geoeditor
http://localhost:8080/dashboard
http://localhost:8080/recipes
