CQLfiltering
The interfaces built with OWGIS allows filtering the content using the Contextual Query Language. With these feature scientist can easily filter data.
Open WebGIS
Automatically build dynamic WebGIS sites
OWGIS is an open-source Java web application that creates WebGIS interfaces from XML configuration — animations, vertical profiles, color palettes, downloadable data, and multilingual support.
What is OWGIS?
OWGIS (Open WebGIS) writes the HTML and JavaScript for you. Configure layers and interface text in XML, and OWGIS generates the site.
The framework integrates with ncWMS servers for scientific raster data, supports 3D layers, streamlines, CQL filtering, KML export, and time-enabled animations without additional web programming.

Capabilities highlighted on the original OWGIS site.
Color Palettes
When the main layer is being retrieved from a ncWMS server, OWGIS builds the necessary web content to allow the user selecting from the available color palettes on the server.
What is OWGIS?
OWGIS is a Java web application that builds web interfaces that contains dynamic maps. These interfaces contain many features like ....
Vertical Profiles
For 3D data served through ncWMS servers, OWGIS makes the proper requests to generate vertical profile graphs.
3D view
3D view using WebGL with the Open Source software Cesium
Depth Selection
OWGIS builds a nice paginated window for selecting different z-axis of 3D layers.
Download as KML
Just one click and any of your layers will be downloaded as a KML file, which can be visualized in other clients like Google Earth.
Time Series
If your data varies on time, OWGIS takes advantage of the ncWMS servers and provides time series from the time range selected through calendars.
Identify Features
Depending on the layers that are being visualized by the WebGIS site, you can access its data at any location by simple clicking on the map.
Streamlines
Newest version of OWGIS can generate streamlines to visualize currents, winds, or any other vector field.
News
Project updates and publications.
Unestructured meshes!
Thanks to ncWMS2, now we are able to visualize output from unstructured meshes! Take a look at ADCIRC data with OWGIS.
Streamlines in OWGIS!
The next version of OWGIS will display vector fields with live streamlines for winds and currents.
OWGIS & ncWMS2!
ncWMS 2 support is here, including native streamlines from vector fields served by ncWMS 2.
3D view in OWGIS!
Maps can now be displayed in 3D using the Cesium Open Source project.
OWGIS 2 Beta
OWGIS has been refactored to use OpenLayers 3, CSS3, canvas animations and more.
OWGIS Published!
You can see the paper at Environmental Modeling Software. Please reference it in publications that use OWGIS.
