Add Layers to QGIS¶
Previously, we used osm2pgsql to import a PBF file to our PostGIS database.
However, we never published the layers created to GeoServer.
1. Create a new qgis project, andorra.qgs
2. Expand the geosuite PostGIS connection
3. Add the planet_osm_polygon layer to the project
4. Add the planet_osm_points layer to the project
Create Styles¶
1. In the top menu, go to Web > GeoCat > StyleViewer
2. As shown below, the SLD style for our layer is displayed
3. Double click the planet_osm_polygon layer to open the Properties box
4. On the Symbology section, select a new fill color and click Save
5. Our new polygon style is updated as below
6. Repeat for the planet_osm_points layer, selecting ‘Blue Diamond’
7. Again, we see the SLD style for the layer is displayed on save
Publish Styles¶
1. As before, go to Web > GeoCat > Publish
2. In order to publish only our styles to GeoServer, tick the “Symbology only” checkbox and then click Publish
3. We should see a success message like below
Set Styles in GeoServer¶
1. Log in to GeoServer and click Add New Layer
2. Click the publish links for planet_osm_polygon and planet_osm_points layers from our PostGIS store
3. Go to Layers and select the planet_osm_polygon layer
4. On the Publish tab, select the green polygon style we uploaded above
5. Repeat for the planet_osm_points layer
6. The styles we created in QGIS and uploaded using GeoCat Bridge are now applied
