REST Documentation WMS¶

Notice this section is EXPERIMENTAL and the interface may change before release.

The WMS can be used to retrieve an overlay for a statistic job.

The base path for the WMS is:

The reference section can be found here:

GateHouse WMS Webservice Reference

Using the WMS¶

To retrieve metadata about the service, make a GetCapabilities request:

?service=WMS&request=GetCapabilities&version=1.3.0 GET

This will return XML with metadata about the service, including supported operations and parameters, and a list of the available layers.

To get an overlay for a statistics job, make a GetMap request:

?service=WMS&request=GetMap&version=1.3.0&width=WIDTH&height=HEIGHT&bbox=BBOX&layers=statistics&job=JOBID

This will return a PNG image.
