.png image as the background of a layer, how do I do it?

I have installed cmdbuild and geoserver and configured both over xampp with tomcat, using postgres, In cmdbuild, I want to have a .png as floor plant of my building where I have mi 50 computers, and I want to have an inventory over this floor plant with icons of pc’s representing my 50 pc’s over the floor plant of my building, this way I would like to move the icons over the .png floor plant representing the fisic ubication os eache pc, but I don’t know hoy to create or inject the image of the floor plant in .png format over a lawyer, ¿what are the steps to get this?. Thakyou.

A PNG is not directly added to cmdbuild.

The floor plan must be published as a raster layer from Geoserver. The png should be georeferenced (local or fake coordinates are acceptable), converted to GeoTIFF, published to Geoserver, and then consumed in cmdbuild over WMS.

In PostGIS, PCs should be an icon-styled vector point layer. A PC’s point geometry is updated when it is moved.

The standard configuration for indoor layouts in cmdbuild is a raster + vector overlay.
