The Digpro WMS Server certified by the OGC

Making a map accessible to other users

 

 

The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) is a trade organisation in GIS (Geographic Information Systems). Among other things, the OGC deals with matters of standardisation and strives to facilitate the exchange of information among different GIS platforms. The WMS Standard is one of the more utilised standards for the exchange of elementary map information. The WMS (Web Map Service) is a service that can deliver a map in the form of a screen image. This service must firstly be able to respond to the type of information it has and then be able to provide the information in various formats and at various locations.
Today, many GIS platforms are able to read WMS services, Google Earth for example, which means that it is easy to present information without needing to be concerned about the kind of system that the receiver has.

The Digpro WMS Service can be configured to display various map products in the same way that map products are arranged in some of the DP/Spatial applications. The map can then be made available to other users. Currently, a map can be delivered in WGS84 and in ST74.
