Mastering WFS Transactions in GeoServer: A Comprehensive Guide

In this session, we’ll explore WFS transactions available in GeoServer. If you want to access the complete tutorial, click on the link.

Introduction

The Web Feature Service (WFS) transactions in GeoServer, enable users the ability to manipulate geographic data for serving and editing geospatial information over the web. This feature allows for direct editing of spatial features within a dataset through a web browser or application, without needing to download and edit the data locally.

WFS transactions in GeoServer allow users to dynamically edit spatial data by sending XML requests to insert, update, or delete features. This real-time editing is crucial for applications like online maps and collaborative planning systems. It improves efficiency, data accuracy, and supports real-time collaboration.

Note. This video was recorded on GeoServer 2.22.4, which is not the most up-to-date version. Currently, versions 2.25.x and 2.26.x are supported. To ensure you have the latest release, please visit this link and avoid using older versions of GeoServer.

Note. In all examples in this blog post, we utilize the topp:tasmania_roads layer.

WFS Insert Feature

The Insert Feature operation, when used with GeoServer’s WFS transaction feature, allows users to append new features to an existing dataset. This ensures the new feature is securely added to the layer, preventing data duplication and errors.

Note. Backup your data and configuration before making any changes to avoid potential data loss or unexpected behavior.

Here is an example of how to use the WFS insert feature in GeoServer:

  • Navigate to the Demos page, then click on the Demo requests link.
  • From the Request drop-down list, select WFS_transactionInsert.xml.
  • Enter the new coordinates and road’s type as follows:

    <wfs:Insert>
      <topp:tasmania_roads>
        <topp:the_geom>
          <gml:MultiLineString srsName="http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326">
            <gml:lineStringMember>
              <gml:LineString>
                <gml:coordinates decimal="." cs="," ts=" ">
                  145.2,-42.5 145.2,-43.3 145.8,-43.3
                </gml:coordinates>
              </gml:LineString>
            </gml:lineStringMember>
          </gml:MultiLineString>
        </topp:the_geom>
        <topp:TYPE>street</topp:TYPE>
      </topp:tasmania_roads>
    </wfs:Insert>
    
  • Remember that using the WFS transaction in GeoServer requires appropriate permissions and access rights to ensure that only authorized users can modify the data. Enter the username and password to be authorized, and then press the Submit button.
  • GeoServer processes the transaction request. If successful, it adds the new feature to the road layer; if unsuccessful, a relevant error information is displayed and no changes are made to the data.
  • Navigate to the Layer Preview section and open up the OpenLayers preview for the tasmania_roads layer. Your map should now look like this:

WFS_InsertFeature

You have successfully used the insert feature with WFS transaction in GeoServer to add a new street to your dataset.

WFS Update Feature

The Update feature of the WFS transaction in GeoServer enables users to modify existing features within a geospatial dataset. By submitting a request that specifies both the feature type and the desired changes to attributes and geometry, users can efficiently update specific attributes while altering the shape, location, and size of various features.

Here are the steps to perform an update feature with WFS transaction in GeoServer:

  • Select WFS_transactionUpdateGeom.xml from the Request drop-down list, then edit the codes as follows:

    <wfs:Update typeName="topp:tasmania_roads">
      <wfs:Property>
        <wfs:Name>the_geom</wfs:Name>
        <wfs:Value>
          <gml:MultiLineString srsName="http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326">
            <gml:lineStringMember>
              <gml:LineString>
                <gml:coordinates>145.55,-42.7 145.04,-43.04 145.8,-43.4</gml:coordinates>
              </gml:LineString>
            </gml:lineStringMember>
          </gml:MultiLineString>
        </wfs:Value>
      </wfs:Property>
      <ogc:Filter>
        <ogc:FeatureId fid="tasmania_roads.15"/>
      </ogc:Filter>
    </wfs:Update>
    
  • Enter the username and password to be authorized, and then press the Submit button.
  • After the GeoServer has processed the transaction request, go back to the Layer Preview section and open up the OpenLayers preview for the tasmania_roads layer. Your map should now look like this:

WFS_UpdateFeature

WFS Delete Feature

This operation allows users to selectively remove specific features from a dataset by providing their unique identifiers. The process of deleting features can be seamlessly executed through the WFS transaction capabilities in GeoServer.

This functionality gives users more control over their geospatial database, helping them manage and manipulate data efficiently. As an example, let’s remove the features whose type attribute is equal to road. To do this, follow the steps displayed on the screen:

  • Select WFS_transactionDelete.xml from the Request drop-down list, then edit the codes as follows:

    <wfs:Delete typeName="topp:tasmania_roads">
      <ogc:Filter>
        <ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
          <ogc:PropertyName>topp:TYPE</ogc:PropertyName>
          <ogc:Literal>road</ogc:Literal>
        </ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
      </ogc:Filter>
    </wfs:Delete>
    
  • Enter the username and password to be authorized, and then press the Submit button.
  • After the GeoServer has processed the transaction request, preview for the tasmania_roads layer. As you can see, the features of type Road have been deleted.

WFS_DeleteFeature

Remember that you can define filter conditions to remove the specific features using the WFS Delete transaction. This can include feature IDs, attributes, spatial extent or other criteria.

  • Again, select WFS_transactionDelete.xml from the Request drop-down list, then edit the codes as follows:

    <wfs:Delete typeName="topp:tasmania_roads">
      <ogc:Filter>
        <ogc:FeatureId fid="tasmania_roads.15"/>
      </ogc:Filter>
    </wfs:Delete>
    
  • Enter the username and password to be authorized, and then press the Submit button.
  • After the GeoServer has processed the transaction request, open the OpenLayers preview for the tasmania_roads layer from the Layer Preview section. As you can see, the fid 15 has been deleted.

In this session, we took a brief journey to explore WFS Transaction to insert update and remove features in GeoServer. If you want to access the complete tutorial, click on the link.

This is a stable release of GeoServer recommended for production use. GeoServer 2.27.0 is made in conjunction with GeoTools 33.0, GeoWebCache 1.27.0, and ImageIO-EXT 1.4.15.

This release graduates the OGC API Features module to extension status, ensures all OGC services pass CITE compliance tests, and adds performance improvements to the catalog loader that significantly reduces startup times for large deployments. The release also includes Smart Data Loader override rules. This release addresses several security vulnerabilities, and enforces browser Content Security Policy for increased security.

Thanks to extensive community testing through our user forum, we’re confident in recommending this release for production use. Check update notes for specific instructions.

Thanks to Gabriel Roldan (Camptocamp) and Jody Garnett (GeoCat) for making this release and to all contributors who helped with this release cycle.

Community Testing

This release cycle featured an extensive community testing effort, with our new discourse communication channels playing a central role in pre-release validation.

Testers helped identify and resolve several important issues:

  • Performance Improvements: Daniel Calliess verified faster startup times and validated the GeoFence plugin functionality.
  • Security Enhancements: Georg and Roar Brænden provided detailed feedback on the new Content Security Policy (CSP) implementation, helping refine the upgrade instructions.
  • Catalog Robustness: Andrea tested the new parallel catalog loader across various data directory configurations, identifying and helping resolve concurrency edge cases.
  • Documentation: Emanuele Tajariol collaborated with Daniel to update GeoFence plugin documentation.
  • Standards Implementation: Landry Breuil validated the OGC API Features extension on behalf of the geOrchestra community.

The GeoServer team is grateful to all community members who participated in this testing effort. Their feedback was instrumental in addressing issues before release and ensuring a smooth upgrade experience for users.

Special thanks to Andrea, Jody, Peter, and Gabriel for their diligent work reviewing feedback and addressing issues throughout the preflight testing period.

Security Considerations

This release addresses several security vulnerabilities, and is a recommended upgrade for production systems.

See project security policy for more information on how security vulnerabilities are managed.

OGC API FeaturesService Extension

The OGC API Features module has officially graduated from community status to become a supported GeoServer extension. This implementation of the modern, web-friendly OGC API - Features standard provides a RESTful API alternative to traditional WFS services.

Key capabilities include:

  • Feature collection discovery and access
  • Spatial and attribute filtering using CQL2
  • Multiple output formats (GeoJSON, HTML, etc.)
  • Service-level operations across multiple collections

This service operates alongside the existing WFS services:

  1. Update the WFS Settings title and description appropriately.

    OGC API Features Title / Description

  2. This information is used for the service landing page:

    OGC API Features

  3. GeoServer has not previously included draft or work-in-progress development - preferring to make such functionality available as community modules for developers to collaborate. However OGC API - Features specification is defined in a modular fashion, and accommodates the idea of both draft and community standards.

    To configure enable/disable “conformances” for Features, CQL2, and ECQL.

    OGC API Features Title / Description

  4. For more information on OGC API support in GeoServer:

This graduation is the result of a collaborative code sprint with developers from Camptocamp, GeoSolutions, and GeoCat joining forces. As part of this effort, the module now passes OGC CITE compliance tests, ensuring proper interoperability with other OGC-compliant systems.

Special thanks to the French “Commissariat général au développement durable du Ministère chargé de l’Ecologie” for sponsoring this work as part of the Collectif Interopérabilité et mise en Commun de Composants Logiciels pour les plateformes de données (CICCLO) project.

For more information, and the extension user docs.

OGC CITE Compliance

A significant effort has been made to ensure GeoServer passes the OGC Conformance and Interoperability Test and Evaluation (CITE) compliance tests across all supported services. This work improves the quality and interoperability of GeoServer with other OGC-compliant systems.

Restoring CITE Compliance has been a project goal for a number of years, and an ongoing sponsorship goal for the GeoServer project. Many thanks to prior sponsors of this activity including Gaia3D, and OSGeo:UK.

We are pleased to share that GeoServer now passes all the OGC CITE compliance tests available for the services it supports. Passing OGC CITE tests involved fixing numerous issues related to exception handling, version negotiation, and service behavior.

Special thanks to Andrea Aime for leveraging, extending, and improving the OGC CITE conformance testing infrastructure that was developed during the OGC API Features work, and methodically applying it to ensure all GeoServer services now pass their respective compliance tests.

While official certification from the OGC is still pending at the time of writing, the process is underway and we anticipate formal recognition of GeoServer in the coming days.

Thanks to Peter Smythe (AfriGIS) and Angelos Tzotsos for working with Open Source Geospatial Foundation to provide access to the CITE Certification process. Once certification is granted, we will update this post and home page with a “live logo” to reflect our official status.

  • GEOS-11729 Pass WCS 1.0 certification OGC CITE tests
  • GEOS-11730 Pass WCS 1.1 certification OGC CITE tests
  • GEOS-11780 Pass WCS 2.0 certification OGC CITE tests
  • GEOS-11731 Pass WFS 1.0 certification OGC CITE tests

  • GEOS-11752 Pass GeoTIFF 1.1 certification OGC CITE tests
  • GEOS-11753 Pass GPKG 1.2 certification OGC CITE tests

Content Security Policy Enforced

The use of Content Security Policy (CSP) headers is an additional safety precaution introduced by your browser to mitigate cross-site scripting and clickjacking attacks.

GeoServer 2.27.0 pages now include a Content Security Policy, limiting expected browser interactions to increase security.

  • Before updating double check your PROXY_BASE_URL setting is correct.

    This is a common mistake blocked by the new CSP policy.

  • It is expected that the web administration console functions correctly, along with extensions and community modules.

    With these improved CSP safety measures GeoServer may now detect vulnerabilities in your environment that were previously undetected.

    If you run into any problems, troubleshooting instructions are available in the user manual.

  • Additional tools are available for administrators seeking greater control.

    OGC API Features

Thanks to Steve Ikeoka for his dedication to this activity.

  • GSIP 227 Content-Security-Policy Headers
  • GEOS-11346 Add a configurable Content-Security-Policy header
  • GEOS-11698 Update GeoServer User Interface Troubleshooting Guidance
  • GEOS-11585 Patch Spectrum to work with Wicket’s CSP
  • GEOS-11586 Patch CodeMirror to work with Wicket’s CSP
  • GEOS-11669 Patch jscolor to work with Wicket’s CSP

Faster Catalog Loading

GeoServer 2.27.0 includes significant performance improvements for server startup with the promotion of the “datadir catalog loader” from a community module to the GeoServer core. This enhanced loader dramatically improves startup times for deployments with large data directories through parallel processing.

Startup Performance

The performance gains are substantial, as shown by these benchmark results:

NFS/10Gbps Storage:

  • 16K layers: reduced from 5.8s to 3.3s (1.8× faster)
  • 100K layers: reduced from 1.9min to 28.3s (4.1× faster)
  • 1M layers: reduced from 21.3min to 5.9min (3.6× faster)

NVMe Gen5/ZFS Storage:

  • 16K layers: reduced from 3.5s to 1.3s (2.7× faster)
  • 100K layers: reduced from 21.2s to 3.2s (6.5× faster)
  • 1M layers: reduced from 3.4min to 24.6s (8.3× faster)

The new loader uses work-stealing thread pools for catalog processing while ensuring thread safety. This enhancement is particularly valuable for large enterprise deployments where startup time has been a bottleneck.

The loader is enabled by default but can be disabled or tuned if needed as explained in the data directory documentation.

  • GSIP-231 Promote data_dir catalog loader to core
  • GEOS-11284 Promote community module “datadir catalog loader” to core

File System Sandbox Isolation

A file system sandbox is used to limit access for GeoServer Administrators and Workspace Administrators to specified file folders.

  • A system sandbox is established using GEOSERVER_FILESYSTEM_SANDBOX application property, and applies to the entire application, limiting GeoServer administrators to the <sandbox> folder, and individual workspace administrators into isolated <sandbox>/<workspace> folders.

  • A regular sandbox can be configured from the Security > Data screen, and is used to limit individual workspace administrators into <sandbox>/<workspace> folders to avoid accessing each other’s files.

Thanks to Andrea (GeoSolutions) for this important improvement at the bequest of Munich RE.

MapML Enhancement

The MapML extension continues to receive significant updates.

Tiled Coordinate Reference Systems can now be managed with a new MapML TCRS Settings page, available in the Admin Console Settings section:

MapML_tcrs_menu

The MapML TCRS Settings page provides a selector containing available GridSets. The administrator can select GridSets from the left list that will be converted to TiledCRSs.

MapML_tcrs_selector

Check out the documentation for more insights.

These changes provide better integration and more powerful capabilities for creating web maps with MapML.

  • GEOS-11561 Client-Delegating MapML Proxy
  • GEOS-11577 Rename MapML <layer-> to <map-layer>, rename viewer bundle to mapml.js
  • GEOS-11605 MapML Support custom TCRS projections from existing GridSets
  • GEOS-11666 Update MapML viewer to latest release 0.16.0

Smart Data Loader Enhancements

The Smart Data Loader has been improved with override rules, making it more flexible for data management scenarios:

The Smart Data Loader plugin automates the creation of XSD schemas and App-Schema mapping files, significantly simplifying the configuration of complex feature data in GeoServer.

With the new override rules capability, you can now customize how database tables are mapped to feature types without modifying the database schema, providing greater control and flexibility when working with complex or legacy data structures.

Smart_Data_Loader_override_rules

For more details on using Smart Override Rules, see the official documentation.

  • GEOS-11741 Enhancing Smart Data Loader with Override Rules
  • GEOS-11691 Smart data loader accepts bigint and bigserial but not int8 postgresql type alias

GeoFence Improvements

The GeoFence extension has received several significant improvements:

These improvements make GeoFence more flexible and powerful for implementing fine-grained security policies.

  • GEOS-11702 GeoFence: major libs update
  • GEOS-11704 GeoFence: filter rule list by IP address
  • GEOS-11705 GeoFence: make rules valid within a date range
  • GEOS-11526 GeoFence: slow GeoServer response when there are many roles and layergroups

Performance Improvements

Several performance improvements have been implemented in this release:

  • GEOS-11580 Improve embedded GWC meta-tiling performance
  • GEOS-11766 Speed up CRS and store factory lookups during catalog loading
  • GEOS-11722 Coverage view reader partially ignores multithreaded loading
  • GEOS-11739 Excessive memory usage for WMS KML output format
  • GEOS-11760 Fix a potential OOM in the KML transformation
