Presented at FOSS4G 2009 in Sydney, Australia

1. Summary of OGC Web Services in MapServer Jeff McKenna Gateway Geomatics

3. SLD

4. WFS (server/client)

5. GML

6. Filter Encoding

7. WCS (server)

8. WMC

9. SOS (server)

11. WCS 1.0.0* and 1.1.0*

12. SOS 1.0.0

15. Since v4.4 (2004), "ows_*" metadata can be used for common metadata items shared by multiple OGC interfaces (e.g. ows_title vs wms_title + wfs title)

17. 2001: Initial implementation, thanks to funding from NRCan's Canadian Forest Service (CFS)

18. Supports WMS 1.0.0, 1.1.0, 1.1.1. and 1.3.0

20. DescribeLayer

21. GetMap

22. GetFeatureInfo

24. ISO 19128

25. axis order hell (required to strictly follow axis order from EPSG instead of always x,y)

26. new coordinate reference systems (e.g. CRS:84 for WGS 84 (EPSG:4326) in lon,lat)

27. use of CRS parameter (instead of SRS)

28. SLD 1.1.0

30. Client sends XML document for symbolization

31. 2004: Initial implementation (MapServer 4.2)

33. GetStyles

34. PutStyles

36. 2001: Initial implementation (v1.0.0)

37. Supports WFS 1.0.0 and 1.1.0

39. MapServer architecture optimized for map rendering, not well suited to transactional

40. Great alternatives for WFS-T include TinyOWS and GeoServer

42. DescribeFeatureType

46. Read access for GML2

48. Used in SLD for classification

50. Spatial

51. Comparative

53. 2004: Initial implementation in MapServer 4.4

54. Supports WCS 1.0.0 and 1.1.0

56. DescribeCoverage

58. (can be done through GDAL)

60. remote WMS layer pointers

61. Like “project” files in common desktop GIS

62. XML-based

63. Supported by MapServer CGI and MapScript

64. 2006: Initial implementation

66. Initial implementation (SOS 1.0.0) in MapServer 4.8 (2006), thanks to funding from Environment Canada

68. DescribeSensor

71. Legends for Raster layers

73. MapServer OGC workshop http://ms-ogc-workshop.maptools.org/
