1./ The dimension and extent elements are in the right place; there are slight changes needed based on the 1.1.1 DTD [1]. Here is a snippet from http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.1/capabilities_1_1_1.xml:
<Dimension name="time" units="ISO8601"/> <Dimension name="elevation" units="EPSG:5030"/> <Extent name="time" default="2000-08-22">1999-01-01/2000-08-22/P1D</Extent> <Extent name="elevation" default="0" nearestValue="1">0,1000,3000,5000,10000</Extent> 2./ I don't know of any WMS client that supports the elevation parameter. You _could_ always do a GetMap request with an SLD as a workaround. ..Tom [1] http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.1/WMS_MS_Capabilities.dtd ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Waberzeck, Thomas Sent: Thursday, 04 November 2010 09:48 To: [email protected] Subject: [mapserver-users] wms with Elevation Parameter Hi, at first, I know that mapserver doesn't support wms with Elevation parameters. But maybe some could give me some Hints. What I'm going to do is set up a wms which should deliver maps for a given Depth. So I wrote a script which generates an referenced jpg of the demanded Dimensions (x/y and Depth) and modifies the Datasource of my Rasterlayer. Then Mapserver works as an normal wms. So by now, I'm able to call my wms like this: http://localhost/geotis_wms.php?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&SRS=epsg:31467&bbox=3704120,5915103,3737294,5944356&layers=Horizontalschnitt_farbige_Isolininen&format=image/png&width=600&height=600&elevation=2500styles The Layerdefinition from the getCababilities is like: <Layer queryable="0" opaque="0" cascaded="0"> <Name>Horizontalschnitt_farbige_Isolininen</Name> <Title>Horizontalschnitt_farbige_Isolininen</Title> <Abstract> Darstellung der Temperatur einer gebenen Tiefe durch farbige Isolininen </Abstract> <SRS>epsg:4326</SRS> <SRS>epsg:31467</SRS> <LatLonBoundingBox minx="5.35586" miny="47.0265" maxx="15.6606" maxy="55.0755"/> <BoundingBox SRS="EPSG:31467" minx="3.267e+006" miny="5.225e+006" maxx="3.927e+006" maxy="6.105e+006"/> <Dimension name="Elevation" units="meter"/> <Extent name="Elevation" unitSymbol="m">0/5000/100</Extent> </Layer> My Questions are: 1. Is my Layerdefinition ok? 2. If yes, which clients support wms in this way? I tried to use QuantumGIS and ArcMap10 without any success - but maybe my Layerdefintion is wrong.
