16 Web Feature Service (WFS) Support
Oracle Spatial includes Web Feature Service (WFS) support.
Note:
- You can deploy Oracle Spatial Web Services from Oracle Cloud Marketplace. This packaged application allows you to install Oracle Spatial web services (such as Web Feature Service (WFS), Web Coverage Services (WCS), and Catalog Services for the Web (CSW)) that are deployed in an Apache Tomcat web server instance on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
- See Deploying and Configuring Spatial Web Services for the installation instructions of Web Feature Service server.
- If you have data from a previous release that was indexed using one or more SYS.XMLTABLEINDEX indexes, then you must drop the associated indexes before the upgrade and re-create the indexes after the upgrade as described in Index Maintenance Before and After an Upgrade (WFS and CSW).

This topic focuses on the WFS-specific configuration and deployment actions. - Managing Feature Types
WFS supports feature types with both spatial and nonspatial attributes. - Capabilities Documents (WFS)
A capabilities document is generated by the WFS server in response to a GetCapabilities request. It shows published feature types (such as roads or rivers) and the operations supported (such as insert and delete). - WFS Operations: Requests and Responses with XML Examples
