Hello again.

 

I have a doubt about Scale denominators. 

 

According to OGC, the <MinScaleDenominator> and <MaxScaleDenominator> elements 
define the range of scales for which it is appropriate to generate a map of a 
Layer. This information in in getCapabilities file. If a clients need to know, 
before loading a layer, if this layer can be viewed or not at a given scale, 
the only way I know is to put this information in capabilities file, isn`t it?. 
A lot of clients only look here to get this information, not in SLD file of the 
layer. If you have this information in capabilities you don't' need to look for 
the layer. So I don't understand why in Geoserver this information can't no be 
put in Capabilities file. Can somebody explain it, please?

 

I have another question: how can I change the response of capabilties file? For 
example, if I want to give information that is not possible to give with the 
Web Administration Interface Tool, like a layer's scale denominator. Is it 
possible to edit some file?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Un saludo.

Geoserver

 

You can add MaxScaleDenominators to each rule in the style for the layer.  I 
don't think there's a way to restrict a layer by zoom at the WMS level; that's 
more the client's responsibility.  I know OpenLayers has minScale and maxScale 
options on layers for this sort of thing.

 

hope this helps.

Hello.

 

I'm new to Geoserver. I need to set a zoom visibility for a very detailed layer 
to be drawn only at very big (detailed) scales. How can I set it? Is it 
possible to be set in Capabilities file?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Un saludo.
