[QGIS-Developer] applying an SLD to a WMS layer

[Jorge Gustavo Rocha]

Hi Kurt,

By design, WMS GetMap requests returns images. Those are rendered on the 
server side, by the map server. Many services just provide those 
rendered images.

Are you trying to provide advanced image processing capabilities on the 
client side to apply an SLD on top those images?

Or would you like to try other GetMap formats, more friendly to process 
on the client side? Like svg or kml? Some of these formats are available 
as vendor options of the map server.

Regards,

Jorge Gustavo
