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: http://sourceforge.net/projects/geoserver/files/GeoServer/2.20.4/extensions/geoserver-2.20.4-feature-pregeneralized-plugin.zip

    Warning

    Ensure to match plugin (example 2.20.4 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.
