Title: Land Ownership layer FIX
Post by: ScottMorris on September 30, 2009, 09:28:45 PM

Well, the "Land Ownership" server changed on us, of course it was right after releasing a new version and then spouting off about it!    ::)

Fortunately the fix is easy:

1. Go to Window->WMS Custom Servers.
2. Left click to select the "Land Ownership Layer"
3. Delete everything in the large "Request" Box.
4. Replace with this string:

wmsconnector/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/BLM_MAP_SURFACE_MGT_AGY?VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&SRS=EPSG:4326&LAYERS=BLM+Lands,US+Forest+Service,FWS,DOD,BOR,BIA,National+Parks,BLM+National+Monuments,BLM+Wilderness+Areas,BLM+National+Conservation+Areas,OTHER,STATE,LOCAL&TRANSPARENT=FALSE&FORMAT=image/jpeg

5. Hit the "Save Changes" button.
6. Close the WMS Custom Servers dialog.

You're good to go.

Fortunately with this change I think the output has improved a bit.  There seem to be more text labels.

Sorry about the issue!  Of course the fix will be incorporated into the next release, but I wanted to get this out there as an immediate fix.

Thanks for the fix. I was wondering why it did not work. The fix worked for me. You might also want to make some changes to the batch download tool. Many of the choices are truncated, for example all of my Land Ownership choices appear as "Land Owner O..."

Thanks for pointing out that out and glad the fix worked.

I noticed that the original land ownership layer is now working again!  No need to apply the fix.  Version 3.90 works fine for downloading this dataset.

When I select land ownership from the pull down list the map always appears overlaid on an aerial photo. Is it possible to change the overlay settings. I would like to see the land ownership overlay on the map type of my choice.

It shouldn't be overlaid on anything!  If you have shaded relief enabled, it will show some shading in mountainous areas, but that's it.

Right now none of the WMS layers (or color aerials) can be combined with other maps.

Bummer, it would be really nice to be able to make an overlay of the ownership layer over a topo map or other map.

I guess I was seeing the shading and thought it was a photo.

Ah, gotcha.  I hope to add more combo features soon.
