Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Demo WMS server
Thanks, I actually looked at the degree demo server and found at least the layers I tested to be empty. :-( And because of the size restriction I can't use it in my case anyway. And thanks for the other suggestions on this list. None so far solve my problem. I do not have a WMS client with a user interface where people could go through the layers list to chose one. (And then maybe wonder, why this particular layer doesn't work in this case or so.) I only have a config file which needs a WMS URL, layer and SRS at a minimum. Something that ideally will never change. I don't want to hardcode a layer that might not exist anymore tomorrow. Of course I can set this up easily myself, but would prefer to do it somewhere where it benefits other people and the community as a whole can support it.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Demo WMS server
It is a common need; however servers are not always up (especially the JPL one as it has a great load placed on it). For the project I work on we keep a wiki page of demo servers; in the hopes that some of them are up at any point in time: - http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/DATA/Home Jody On 12/05/2010, at 1:40 AM, Jochen Topf wrote: > I am just working on a piece of Open Source software that can access WMS > servers.

Anyways, back on topic, if you want you can use http://demo.opengeo.org/geoserver and in particular: http://demo.opengeo.org/geoserver/ows?service=wms&version=1.1.1&request=GetCapabilities (the server provides also WFS and WCS services, with a few layers WFS-T editable) The set of layers is still a bit messy but I'm planning to publish at least the ThematicMapping.org country layer and maybe later during the month the natural earth dataset.
