[Geomoose-users] Identify Attributes on a WMS

[Miller, Elizabeth (DOT)]

Thanks Brian,

Yep, the WMS source should have attributes available for request. Here's my current METADATA code. As you can see, I think I've thrown everything but the kitchen sink in there. If you have any ideas or see any glaring errors let me know.

LAYER...
   METADATA
      "wms_identify" "identify_data.html"
      "wms_record" "identify_data.html"
      "wms_title" "layertitle"
      "wms_srs" "EPSG:26915"
      "wms_name" "layername"
      "wms_server_version" "1.1.1"
      "wms_format" "image/gif"
      "wms_styles" ""
      "wms_exceptions" "application/vnd.ogc.se_inimage"
      "wms_request" "GetMap"
      "wms_request" "GetFeatureInfo"
      "wms_include_items" "all"
      "wms_feature_info_mime_type" "text/html"
    END
    DUMP TRUE
    TEMPLATE '/ms4w/.../identify_data.html'
    TOLERANCE 3
...END

Liesa,
First thing you will have to figure out is if the WMS source has setup any attributes to return with a getinfo wms request.  It should be published in the GetCapbilities if it is.  Not all WMS servers are setup by default to return all attributes.

I have never tried to use the identify with a WMS data source, but I believe Dan added support for it.  I have seen there are configuration settings for the html templates in settings.ini file.

I'm looking for help in setting up an identify on a wms layer. I am using a mapfile to bring in the layer rather than setting up the connection in the mapbook. Does anyone have an example of how to do this? I would like to be able to click with the identify tool on the layer and return attributes in an html template.

Thanks!
