A recap of the 128th OGC Member Meeting, Delft, The Netherlands
OGC’s 128th Member Meeting, themed ‘GeoBIM for the Built Environment,’ was our biggest ever, with over 300 attendees from industry, government and academia.
The OpenGIS® Web Map Service Interface Standard (WMS) provides a simple HTTP interface for requesting geo-registered map images from one or more distributed geospatial databases. A WMS request defines the geographic layer(s) and area of interest to be processed. The response to the request is one or more geo-registered map images (returned as JPEG, PNG, etc) that can be displayed in a browser application. The interface also supports the ability to specify whether the returned images should be transparent so that layers from multiple servers can be combined or not.
NOTE: WMS 1.3 and ISO 19128 are the same documents.
