Pregeneralized Features

Note

GeoServer does not come built-in with support for Pregeneralized Features; it must be installed through an extension.

Installing the Pregeneralized Features extension

1. Visit the website download page, locate your release, and download:

   • 3.0.0 geoserver-3.0.0-feature-pregeneralized-plugin.zip
   • 3.0-SNAPSHOT geoserver-3.0-SNAPSHOT-feature-pregeneralized-plugin.zip

   Warning

   Ensure to match plugin (example 3.0.0 above) version to the version of the GeoServer instance.

2. Extract the contents of the archive into the WEB-INF/lib directory of the GeoServer installation.

Adding a Pregeneralized Features data store

If the extension is properly installed, Generalized Data Store will be listed as an option when creating a new data store.
