Public WMS
« on: December 01, 2009, 11:28:03 AM »
I searched for some Public WMS and came up with a good (IMO) site with many maps

I tried to use them with TopoFusion without any success

http://www.ogc-services.net/

This site has lots of good info...Am I dong something wrong or does it just not work with Topofusion?

Regards
Matt

That is a list of many WMS services, most of which will work with TF.  Each one would need to be set up and configured separately, though.

I plan to make the configuration process a lot easier in the next version of TF.  There are a few quirks to it right now, but is certainly possible to get servers up and running.  Use the connection strings for the WMS servers that come pre-configured in TF to get started, or feel free to ask questions.  What servers in particular are you looking to try out?

Great!

Use the connection strings for the WMS servers that come pre-configured in TF to get started

I mucked around with the settings an changed the server settings from the original (default) settings

Where would I get the values for the default settings ?
