Andrea, I think that is a good idea? Similar in use to the WMS "preview" link? I think this is "simple" enough functionality that having it is core should be fine (only take it into its own module if you wish to backport eh?).
You mention the overlap with OGCAPI, but I view that document as a bit more "connected" with links to the collection page and so on. I view the free marker page as ... very simple? Would you bother with page next / prev controls or let people adjust the URL... -- Jody Garnett On Jan 11, 2024 at 10:26:57 AM, Andrea Aime < andrea.a...@geosolutionsgroup.com> wrote: > Hi all, > I'm considering extending the usage of HTML GetFeatureInfo templates for > WFS as well. > Here are some pros/cons of that approach: > > > - GetFeatureInfo is already taking N feature collections and encoding > the output towards the desired format.
