A layer folder results in a layer of the same name withing the OWS representet by its parent service-layer folder. A layer has a human-readable title, an abstract and optional keywords – just like a scientific paper. These metadata can be specified in <label>/<service>/<layer>/owner.layer.toml. Additionally default and alternative styles (referencing SLD files in <label>/_styles/) and VEF resources can be specified. If desired the default mechanism of auto-deploying changes to the GeoServer (styles, metadata) and/or VEF (recoures) can be deactivated.

AUTODEPLOY | resources | boolean | no (defaults to true) | whether to autodeploy (accepted merge requests will trigger instant updates in AWI-hosted VEF-based viewers, applying changes in resource files) changes for this layer to production. If set to false, triggering updates otherwise is encouraged. Talk to your SDI admins! |
geoserver | boolean | no (defaults to true) | whether to autodeploy (accepted merge requests will trigger instant updates in O2A GeoServers, applying changes in styles, service/layer metadata) changes for this layer in production. If set to false, triggering updates otherwise is encouraged. Talk to your SDI admins! |
_other Folder
The _other subfolder is the place to store resources for services/layers which are not hosted in the GeoServer part of the O2A SDI to be used within VEF-based viewers. This subtree only contains resource files (see above for specs), owner.urls files but neither SLD nor any other configuration files.
