Installation Requirements

For the client website, assuming that the website will use the client helpers PHP API the requirements are as follows:

• PHP version 5.6, 7.0 or 7.1. Better performance is achieved using PHP 7.*.
• The cUrl PHP extension should be enabled.
• Any other requirements of the website (e.g. for running Drupal if using this option).
• Your webserver must not be blocked from accessing the Warehouse server by a firewall to allow communications between the 2 servers.

For the Warehouse, the requirements are as follows:

• PHP version 5.6, 7.0 or 7.1.
• The cUrl PHP extension should be enabled.
• PostgreSQL 9.5 or higher is required.
• The PostGIS extension for PostgreSQL must be installed.
• If you want to expose spatial layers using standard web services then an installation of GeoServer alongside the Warehouse. This requires a Java SDK.
