Hi QGIS Server devs,
We, David and I, are working on enhancing the way QGIS Server is
building the WMS GetCapabilities document. [1]
And I have some questions about the QGIS Server WMS Advertised extent
and the layers / groups bounding box in GetCapabilities.
For exemple in the tests/testdata/qgis_server/test_project.qgs [2], the
WMS Advertised extent is set to
* CRS="EPSG:4326" minx="44.901236" miny="8.203154" maxx="44.901599"
maxy="8.204165" [3][4]
And in this project, the WGS84 extent of the landsat layer is
* CRS="EPSG:4326" minx="30.151856" miny="17.924273" maxx="30.257289"
maxy="18.045658" [5]
As you can read, the layer landsat is out of the WMS Advertised extent.
So the WMS GetCapabilities document contains a layer landsat with a
bounding box outside the root layer / group bounding box.
I was thinking that the root layer / group bounding box should include
all the layers bounding box.
So I wonder what the role of the WMS Advertised extent is.
* Is it only the root layer / group extent ?
* Is it a restricted extent (no data available outside this extent) ?
* Is it the minimum extent of all WMS layers ?
