Wit h missions such as Landsat 8 and Sentinel\, the rapid growth of CubeSats\, and the open availability of global datasets through programs like the Eu ropean Copernicus initiative—alongside data captured by drones—we are now experiencing an unprecedented influx of Earth observation data.\n\nEff ectively managing\, discovering\, and visualizing this volume of imagery p resents significant challenges. This presentation explores how GeoServer a ddresses these challenges through real-world use cases\, including:\n\n- I ndexing and discovery of imagery using OpenSearch for EO and STAC protocol s\n- Efficient and cost-effective management of large datasets with Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs (COGs)\n- Visualization of image mosaics and creation o f composites with flexible filtering and stacking strategies (e.g.\, most recent\, least cloudy\, or custom ordering)\n- Extraction of imagery at va rying scales using WCS and WPS protocols\n- Generation and visualization o f time-based animations over selected periods\n- Execution of band algebra operations using Jiffle\n\nJoin this session for an overview of the lates t GeoServer capabilities in the Earth Observation domain.

Bringing it int o production—stable\, performant\, and capable of handling real-world tr affic—is a different challenge. This talk distills hands-on lessons from enterprise GeoServer deployments into a practical playbook\, covering the full journey from initial setup to a production-ready service\, including modern cloud-native approaches such as GeoServer Cloud.\n\nWe explore the configuration decisions that matter most in production: selecting output formats to avoid network bottlenecks\, preparing vector and raster data fo r the multi-resolution demands of web GIS\, and tuning SLD styling to bala nce visual quality with rendering performance. We then move to caching str ategies\, demonstrating how to configure GeoWebCache effectively for backg round layers\, and how to identify scenarios where caching can be counterp roductive.\n\nService limits\, the control-flow extension\, and the monito ring extension are presented as key operational tools for maintaining stab ility under real user load—helping identify slow requests\, resource-int ensive clients\, and the services and layers that require closer attention . JVM sizing and container configuration are addressed at a practical leve l\, focusing on actionable guidance rather than theory\, with notes on how these considerations evolve in containerized and cloud-based deployments. \n\nThe session concludes with real-world examples from enterprise deploym ents carried out by the speaker and colleagues at GeoSolutions\, spanning government SDIs\, environmental monitoring platforms\, and large-scale hum anitarian mapping systems. For each scenario\, we highlight the configurat ion choices and tuning strategies that made a measurable difference: which caching approaches were adopted and why\, how service limits were aligned with actual client behavior\, and how load testing validated each improve ment prior to go-live. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns they ca n immediately apply to their own installations.

These advances have dem ocratized access to data and capabilities\, enabling precision farming sol utions at an unprecedented scale.\n\nThis has become one of the main use c ases for GeoServer deployments in recent years. At GeoSolutions\, we have collaborated with a wide range of clients—from NGOs to large private com panies\, from startups to research institutions\, helping them to extract value from data through GeoServer and other open-source geospatial technol ogies deployed at scale in cloud environments.\n\nThis presentation summar izes 10 years of experience in ingesting\, managing\, and disseminating da ta at scale for the precision farming industry. Key topics include:\n\n* O ptimization and organization of raster data\n* Optimization and organizati on of vector data\n* Data modeling for performance and scalability in GeoS erver and PostGIS\n* Deployment guidelines for scaling and performance of GeoServer\n* On-the-fly styling for NDVI and other visualizations\n\nBy th e end of the presentation\, attendees will be able to design and plan GeoS erver deployments to efficiently serve precision farming data at scale.
