A Web Map Service (WMS) is a standard protocol developed by the Open Geospatial Consortium in 1999 for serving georeferenced map images over the Internet.^[1] These images are typically produced by a map server from data provided by a GIS database.^[3]

The Sentinel WMS service conforms to the WMS standard.It not only provides access to Sentinel-2's 13 unprocessed bands (B01 through B12 - with B8A following B08) but also to processed products such as true color imagery and NDVI.

May 27, 2004  This tutorial introduces the Web Mapping Service (WMS) protocol standardized by the OpenGIS Consortium for retrieving geographic maps over the internet. The tutorial provides C# examples of progressively increasing complexity to illustrate use of. Does anyone have a list of WMS server urls? My client is looking for something more colorful (similar to google maps) for mapping. Is there any free wms server. The GEBCO2014 Grid is available as a Web Map Service (WMS), a means of accessing geo-referenced map images over the internet. Please note: GEBCO's latest global bathymetric grid is the GEBCO2019 Grid. It is intended to develop WMS layers from this data set for future release. The NEO Web Mapping Service implementation strives to open up the NEO collection to users who wish to access its contents via machine-to-machine interaction. WMS gives users the ability to access maps form any implementing service using a standardized programming interface. Capabilities Documents. 1.1.1 Capabilities 1.3.0 Capabilities.

Geospatial Wetlands Data and other layers on the Wetlands Mapper can can be accessed by web-based applications by using the following Open GIS Consortium compliant web mapping services. This tutorial introduces the Web Mapping Service (WMS) protocol standardized by the OpenGIS Consortium for retrieving geographic maps over the internet. The tutorial provides C# examples of progressively increasing complexity to illustrate use of the protocol and programmatic access from Windows.

History[edit]

The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) became involved in developing standards for web mapping after a paper was published in 1997 by Allan Doyle, outlining a 'WWW Mapping Framework'.^[4] The OGC established a task force to come up with a strategy,^[5] and organized the 'Web Mapping Testbed' initiative, inviting pilot web mapping projects that built upon ideas by Doyle and the OGC task force. Results of the pilot projects were demonstrated in September 1999, and a second phase of pilot projects ended in April 2000.^[6]

The Open Geospatial Consortium released WMS version 1.0.0 in April 2000,^[7] followed by version 1.1.0 in June 2001,^[8] and version 1.1.1 in January 2002.^[9] The OGC released WMS version 1.3.0 in January 2004.^[10]

Requests[edit]

WMS specifies a number of different request types, two of which are required by any WMS server:^[11]

• GetCapabilities – returns parameters about the WMS (such as map image format and WMS version compatibility) and the available layers (map bounding box, coordinate reference systems, URI of the data and whether the layer is mostly opaque or not)
• GetMap – returns a map image. Parameters include: width and height of the map, coordinate reference system, rendering style, image format

Request types that WMS providers may optionally support include:

• GetFeatureInfo – if a layer is marked as 'queryable' then you can request data about a coordinate of the map image.
• DescribeLayer – returns the feature types of the specified layer or layers, which can be further described using WFS or WCS requests. This request is dependent on the Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD) Profile of WMS.^[12]
• GetLegendGraphic – return an image of the map's legend image, giving a visual guide to map elements.

Map image[edit]

A WMS server usually serves the map in a bitmap format, e.g. PNG, GIF or JPEG and etc... In addition, vector graphics can be included, such as points, lines, curves and text, expressed in SVG or WebCGM format.
