Interactive Spatial WebApp

Interactive Spring Boot web application for managing spatial data in a relational database.

Features

• Backend: Built with Spring Boot and Spring Data JPA for efficient data management.
• Spatial Support: Uses Hibernate Spatial to handle geographical data types and spatial queries.
• Database: Supports PostGIS (PostgreSQL + spatial extensions), H2GIS, or MySQL. Docker + TestContainers integration available for PostGIS demo.
• Frontend: Interactive map UI using Vaadin with MapLibreGL for editing geographic features directly.
• Base Map: Vector maps via OpenStreetMap and MapTiler (or any standard map layer).
• Efficient Queries: Optimized database structure allows fast queries and dynamic viewport-based data loading.
