I played with it a while ago, it just needs a servlet container, I ran it in
Tomcat.
That takes care of the server side... the front end package for the browser
is something called mapbuilder. That displays the stuff in a browser.
The hard part was not the above, mapping layers and theory gets quite heavy
and I remember downloading dozens of programs to see how easy it is to make
data for the server, it isnt.
I think the one that was quite good was Quantum QIS... cant remember.

I searched around trying to find a server that could supply google earth
type info, I didnt find it and unfortunately google earth itself uses a
different standard.

In the end the only cool thing I could really do was place stuff, say a
image of my office, inside google earth.

I found, just cant beat google earth.... its in a class of its own.

To answer your question, I would try get it going in Tomcat first, its easy
to understand, one you got it figured out it should work in GF, because GF
uses a fork of TC.

Good Luck... sorry was a long time ago now.
