WMS Legends

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Yes but not through Mapserver WMS client. You can directly query a remote WMS server for this though through your application.

There are 2 options for this in the WMS interface:

1) LegendURL from the WMS Capabilities
2) a GetLegendGraphic request, but this is only supported by SLD WMS servers.

Best regards,
Bart

When retrieving a Layer from a WMS (such as a USGS server) is there a way to
retrieve legend information?
