Benefits to Our Company

This project has been an excellent opportunity to undertake a pure research and development exercise, of substantial scope, studying problems that are within our realm of professional expertise. Through this project, we have gained substantial expertise in the GeoServer and GeoTools open source code bases.

Refractions Research is an open source spatial services company, and requires expert knowledge and qualifications to backstop our value as a consultancy to agencies implementing open source solutions. In addition to producing a useful product and programming tools, this project has added to our corporate store of knowledge.

The products of this project (Validation framework, WFS integration) are part of our marketing efforts, to bring open source spatial solutions to governments and organizations across North America.
