MapCache

Verkkopalvelu

MapCache is a server that implements tile caching to speed up access to WMS layers. The primary objectives are to be fast and easily deployable, while offering the essential features (and more!) expected from a tile caching solution.

MapCache is part of the MapServer family, but can be configured to cache and serve data from any geospatial server that uses WMS. MapCache can be run on Apache as a module or on any web server that supports CGI/FastCGI such as IIS, Nginx, and Jetty.
