Architecture (WFS)

The following gives an overview about the WFS connector's design and how it is integrated and coupled to the Ilwis framework. The connector module integrates to the Ilwis Framework with the classes WfsCatalogExplorer, WfsFeatureConnector, WfsObjectFactory, and WfsModule.

The WfsModule is being scanned by Ilwis' plugin mechanism and provides certain metadata of the connector itself and registers creation factories to the kernel. The integration layer maps the Ilwis workflow onto the WFS remote request/response communication. The actual domain level parsers do the conversation from WFS features and its metadata to an IFeatureCoverage.
