+<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
+
+<em>r.in.wms2</em> handles all of downloading and importing raster
+data from an <a href="http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wms">OGC
+WMS</a> web mapping server. It need only be told the desired data to
+collect (bounds and resolution) via a region, the server to get the
+data from, and the layer or layers to get. It downloads the data in
+tiles, reprojects it, imports it, and patches it back together.
+
+<h2>NOTES</h2>
+
+<!--
+By default data is downloaded to <tt>$GISDBASE/wms_download</tt>. This can be changed
+by setting the <b>folder</b> option when using <em>r.in.wms</em>.
+-->
+
+<p>To understand the data you are getting it is necessary to look at the
+capabilities of the WMS server. This should be available via a capabilities
+request. This is an
+<a href="http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?request=GetCapabilities">example
+capabilities request to NASA's OnEarth server</a>.
+
+<h2>EXAMPLES</h2>
+
+<h3>General Get Capabilities Request</h3>
+
+A capabilities request like
+<a href="http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?request=GetCapabilities">http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?request=GetCapabilities</a>
+is where you should start. It tells you what data is offered, the projections
+it is in,  where to find meta data, resolutions, scales, and bounds for
+data, etc.
+
+E.g. lists the layers available from the NASA OnEarth server.
+
+<div class="code"><pre>
+r.in.wms2 mapserver=http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi -l
+</pre></div>
+
+<h3>US NED Elevation from OnEarth server download (metric units)</h3>
+
+Set the resolution to 30 (assuming you're in metric units):
+<div class="code"><pre>
+g.region res=30 -ap
+r.in.wms2 output=elevation_meters mapserver=http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi \
+         layers=us_ned styles=real
+</pre></div>
+
+<h3>US NED Elevation from OnEarth server download (feet units)</h3>
+
+Set the resolution to 90 (assuming you're in feet units) a save this
+region with a name; this makes resuming downloads possible or rather
+easier:
+
+<div class="code"><pre>
+g.region res=90 -ap
+g.region save=panhandle-90ft
+
+r.in.wms2 output=elevation_feet mapserver=http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi \
+         layers=us_ned styles=feet_real region=panhandle-90ft
+</pre></div>
+
+Downloads real number feet elevation from OnEarth to cover the current
+region. 
+
+<h3>LANDSAT from OnEarth server download</h3>
+
+Set the resolution to 30 meters for LANDSAT:
+<div class="code"><pre>
+g.region res=30 -ap
+r.in.wms2 layers=global_mosaic mapserver=http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi \
+         output=wms_global_mosaic
+</pre></div>
+Downloads LANDSAT color scene.
+
+
+<h3>DRG from Terraserver server download</h3>
+
+Set the resolution to 1.2 meters for DRGs. Their native resolution is
+2.4 meters, so this is some pretty hefty oversampling:
+
+<div class="code"><pre>
+g.region res=1.2 -ap
+g.region save=drg-resolution
+
+r.in.wms2 output=terraserver-drg mapserver=http://terraserver.microsoft.com/ogcmap6.ashx \
+         layers=DRG region=drg-resolution format=jpeg srs=EPSG:26910
+</pre></div>
+
+Downloads digital raster graphics from Microsoft TerraServer. Note that
+srs will need to be changed to a projection that is appropriate for your
+region.
