wmsclient

../../_images/WMS_CLIENT.png

Implements a WMS (Web Map Service) client.

Note

wmsclient() was primarily developed for Metview’s user interface where it (as an icon) has a specialised editor that allows to inspect the GetCapabilities request and build and visualise the GetMap request. See the Metview WMS Tutorial for details.

Note

This function performs the same task as the WMS Client icon in Metview’s user interface. It accepts its parameters as keyword arguments, described below.
