What do you mean by "Map Services"? I would genrally consider WFS a "Map Service", but it is designed for transporting vector data. >From the slides I used at FOSS4G Japan: Raster, Standards Based: WMS, TMS, WorldWind Raster, Proprietary: Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, MultiMap Raster, Other: MapServer, KaMap, TileCache, Image, MapGuide Vector: Markers, SVG/VML/Canvas based Vectors Vector Formats: GML, GeoRSS, GPX, OSM, GeoJSON, KML, WKT (Slide 11 in http://openlayers.org/presentations/foss4g-jp/) Regards, -- Christopher Schmidt MetaCarta _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list Dev@openlayers.org http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
