[mapserver-users] WMS in Google Earth

[Steve Lime]

Depends on the version of MapServer. Certain versions required required
(yes that's
correct) parameters according to the WMS specification. I recall
requiring "style" for
example. Problem is that not all clients follow the spec and Google
Earth was one
example and manually adding "&style=" to the WMS url fixed things.
Subsequently
we've backed off the required params in a few cases when a major WMS
client 
breaks.

Of course with Google Earth you need to support epsg:4326 as an output
projection
explicitly as well. Posting version info and mapfile snippets always
helps folks respond.

Here's an example that uses Mapserver to generate layers in google earth

(i3geo software - http://mapas.mma.gov.br):

Use the link in the "network link" (link de rede) option.
