1.2. About this project

Geomajas is a free and open source GIS application framework for building rich internet applications. It has sophisticated capabilities for displaying and managing geospatial information. The modular design makes it easily extendable. The stateless client-server architecture guarantees endless scalability. The focus of Geomajas is to provide a platform for server-side integration of geospatial data, allowing multiple users to control and manage the data from within their own browsers. In essence, Geomajas provides a set of powerful building blocks, from which the most complex GIS applications can easily be built. Key features include:

  • Modular architecture

  • Clearly defined API

  • Integrated client-server architecture

  • Built-in security

  • Advanced geometry and attribute editing with validation

  • Custom attribute definitions including object relations

  • Advanced querying capabilities (searching, filters, style, ...)
