[Geowanking] Opinions about GeoServer

[andrew at cs.uoregon.edu]

Hi all,

I'm working on an algorithm that will test whether a point falls into
various polygons defined by ~30 different shape files with various
projections. I've started digging into GeoServer, which seems to have no
problems loading the majority of the shapefiles. In your experience is
GeoServer a good fit for this kind of query? Also, what is your favorite
query mechanism (something that supports reprojection would be nice since
I'm pulling a lat/long off of a google map and testing it against several
different projections)

Thanks for your input!
