QGIS Server is an open source WMS 1.3, WFS 1.0.0 and WCS 1 1.1.1 implementation that, in addition, implements advanced cartographic features for thematic mapping. QGIS Server is a FastCGI/CGI (Common Gateway Interface) application written in C++ that works together with a web server (e.g., Apache, Lighttpd). It has Python plugin support allowing for fast and efficient development and deployment of new features. The original development of QGIS Server was funded by the EU projects Orchestra, Sany and the city of Uster in Switzerland.
El servidor QGIS utiliza QGIS como back-end para la lógica de los SIG y de mapa de representación. Además, la biblioteca Qt se utiliza para gráficos y para la plataforma independiente la programación en C++. En contraste con otro software de WMS, el servidor de QGIS utiliza reglas cartográficos como un lenguaje de configuración, tanto para la configuración del servidor y de las reglas cartográficas definidas por el usuario.
As QGIS desktop and QGIS Server use the same visualization libraries, the maps that are published on the web look the same as in desktop GIS.
In the following sections, we will provide a sample configuration to set up a QGIS Server on Debian/Ubuntu Linux. For more detailed installation instructions on other platforms or distributions and more information on working with QGIS Server, we recommend reading the QGIS Server Training Manual or Complementos de Python de QGIS Server.
