[Geoserver-users] GeoJSON missing polygons

[Dan H. <dan...@gm...>]

I am trying to use GeoServer to produce a world map with shapes per country
using GeoJSON. In some cases the larger parts of countries are being
omitted from the produced GeoJSON. I am loading the data using WMS and have
the vector tiles extension installed. The data is stored in PostGIS and was
produced by converging the shape files from
https://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/50m-cultural-vectors/50m-admin-0-countries-2/
and loading into PostGIS.

The request looks like:

https://localhost:8444/geoserver/wms?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetMap&layers=test:countries&format=geojson&width=1170&height=491&maxfeatures=15000&bbox=-136.14257812500003,18.97902595325528,-33.31054687500001,52.855864177853995

This request produces a geojson like this:

Notice in this case that just some parts of Canada are rendered.

I am running GeoServer 2.17.0 in Docker using kartoza/geoserver

Thanks,
Dan
