Render server: directly integrate MapServer or Mapnik into MapProxy Security: give users access to single layers, restricted to user-dependent polygons Tiling: reproject tiles from web mercator to a local projection Tiling: create Google Maps/OpenStreetMap compatible tile services from WMS services that do not support the web mercator projection Cascading WMS: combine multiple heterogeneous WMS services to one, with coverages and unified FeatureInfo All features will be explained with practical use cases. This presentation will show you the most important and the most recent features of MapProxy. It is used to combine multiple WMS services to one, make WMS servers available in tiled clients or to restrict access to geographic boundaries. MapProxy is used in countless projects – by federal or state agencies and institutions, by universities, students and hobbyists, by local, national and international companies – all around the world. Features like the security API, the ability to reproject tiles, support for coverages from Shapefiles or PostGIS and the various tools are just a few things that make MapProxy to stand out. MapProxy grew from that to a powerful and flexible proxy for maps. More than four years ago MapProxy started as a small tile cache with the ability to serve regular WMS clients.
