• /proxy.py Proxy file for overriding CORS restrictions. Copy it in your web server's cgi-bin folder. Note: this proxy does not contain any security restrictions.

Errata:

• On page 54, it is said, strategies affect the rendering process. Contrary, strategies affect the download process of WFSs, or other REST API based layers. They alter the extent with which the loader function is called. Thus, setting a strategy only has effect, when it is used with the default loader function (ol.featureloader.loadFeaturesXhr).
