Drawing arrow on line using SLD of GeoServer?


I have a line layer in geoserver as in the 1st image.


How can I draw an arrow on the line like in the 2nd image?


The line.rar includes a shapefile and a sld file.


Can edit a sample for me?

Answer



The GeoServer documentations states how to extract start and end points with geometry transformations (just use the end- point rule). The code example provided uses square as marks, but you could always replace this with e.g. the shape symbol shape://oarrow.


EDIT: I forgot to mention how to rotate the triangle correctly (couldn't find it in the documentation, but took it from page 38 in this presentation)!

EDIT2: Just wanted to make sure everything works as described, here is a code sample based on GeoServer's default blue line SLD style:




xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd"
xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld"
xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"

This is how it should look like:
