How it works

Installing VTS Backend takes care of:

• installing, configuring and running (through init-scripts) of VTS Mapproxy and VTSD
• installing all commandline tools
• installing VTS Registry
• setting up caching reverse-proxy listening at localhost:8070
• creates storage for every reference frame in VTS Registry

Once installed, URL localhost:8070/mapproxy/ points to mapproxy upstream, therefore mapproxy resources (see mapproxy reference) are served from

localhost:8070/mapproxy/<reference-frame>/<resource-type>/<resource-group>/<resource-id>/

. Similarly, URL localhost:8070/store/ points to VTSD upstream which supports directory listing allowing to browse to particular storage, tileset or storage view.
