Web Services

deegree is free, stable, powerful and easy to use. deegree is the most comprehensive set of implementations of Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standards in free and open source software, ranging from a transactional Web Feature Service to three-dimensional data display through a Web Terrain Service and many more!

deegree is a solution for web- and desktop-based Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI). It is comprised of a comprehensive yet powerful Java Application Programming Interface (API) and a powerful object-relational mapping for simple and complex spatial schemas. deegree also provides a set of standards-compliant webservices for web mapping, feature and catalogue services as well as sensor and processing services.

deegree gets your SDI up and running, using your own data and fulfilling your requirements.
