I have a huge number of layers in my geoserver that I have painstakingly imported and they all work correctly when viewed with GeoExplorer etc.

I want to know if there is any way to create set maps which show groups of these layers. I know how to group the layers together but don't know if i can use the same layer in multiple groups.

If this is entirely impossible, what is the best way to create set maps- using a new workspace/store for the layers that require duplicating?

The maps will eventually be linked into a server that hopefully will have different interactive maps created from the above.

  • Are they rasters or vectors? If vectors do they share a common schema or could the schemas be modified to one uniform so that all layers could be created with filters?

  • The are all vectors, they are currently all in the same schema- 'public'.I've only done what is available via the tutorials online- I've imported them all into pgAdmin which hasn't been configured differently from that stage.

You can use the same layer in different layer groups as long as (a) the layer group is global (ie not local to a workspace) or (b) the layer is in the same workspace as the layer groups.
