PROFILE

Mark Fodor

Over four months, contributed to the geoserver/geoserver repository by delivering six backend features focused on geospatial data handling, modular architecture, and service version control. Implemented GeoParquet support to enable modern parquet-based workflows and removed H2 dependencies to streamline deployments. Introduced WCS 1.0 as an optional extension and migrated test infrastructure to HSQLDB for improved reliability. Led a modular refactor of the Web Feature Service, enabling independent version management and targeted testing. Added service version toggling to enhance reliability and user experience. Work was primarily in Java, leveraging the Spring Framework, Maven, and REST API development for robust backend solutions.
