[Mapbender-users] GetFeatureInfo-Request

[Michael Schulz]

Hey Jan,

as I read the specs (1.1.1), getfeatureinfo shall embed all remaining
parameters from the getmap request except REQUEST and VERSION. So i
think mapbenders behaviour is correct.

Returning an image for a getfeatureinfo request other than a service
exception in_image seems not to be in the scope of the specs.

Cheers, Michael
