[Qgis-user] Programmatically extract WMS data based on point layer?

Hi Richard,

your last question first: Nope, there is definitely no WFS (would be too
easy). I am living in Bavaria, the home of "Laptop and Lederhosen". Our
administrations are among the greediest and most retarded (offering
hardly any WFS which then mostly have to paid as well) in Germany.

How would I know this is a Geoserver instance? The url of the WMS is
|https://www.lfu.bayern.de/gdi/wms/natur/oefk?|

My "python" is actually nonexistant, so I was hoping that there was
something "prebuilt" in someone's drawer already. But as my web research
showed, there does seem to be much on this topic besides of "not possible".

It's a bit mystical to me why QGIS can show the result of a click on a
layer, but not store the data by any means ...

Mhm ...

Bernd
