Introduction
Apache SIS is a spatial framework that enables better representation of coordinates for searching, data clustering, archiving, or any other relevant spatial needs. The project home page is http://sis.apache.org.
This page describe the steps for running the 'webapp' module, which still in early draft. This page does not describe other modules like coordinate by referencing, metadata, NetCDF or Shapefile storage.
Downloading & Building SIS
The latest released source code can be obtained by visiting the downloads page. You can download the 'apache-sis-src.zip' archive and run the following commands to unpack it to a local folder, for example as follows:

mvn clean install |
Eclipse or NetBeans Integration
See http://sis.apache.org/source.html#ide.
Running The SIS Web Application
The build consists of a number of components, including a web-based application that you can use to try out SIS features. Below are some instructions on how to set up the web application on various different servers.
Running on Jetty
Jetty is now supported as of 11th February 2012. After building SIS, navigate to the sis-webapp directory. To run the built-in Jetty server, run the following command:
