3.4. Web Coverage Service (WCS)

The 1.0.0 and 1.1.1 WCS standards implemented in QGIS Server provide a HTTP interface to access raster data, referred to as coverage, coming from a QGIS project.

COVERAGE

This parameter, defined in WCS 1.0.0, allows to specify the layers to query for additional information. Names have to be separated by a comma.

In addition, QGIS Server introduced an option to select layers by its short name. The short name of a layer may be configured through Properties ► Metadata in layer menu. If the short name is defined, then it’s used by default instead of the layer’s name:

http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WCS
&REQUEST=DescribeCoverage
&COVERAGE=mylayer1name,mylayer2shortname

참고

COVERAGE is mandatory if IDENTIFIER is not set.

IDENTIFIER

This parameter replaces the COVERAGE parameter in WCS 1.1.1. But QGIS Server does not filter according to the VERSION parameter so IDENTIFIER and COVERAGE have the same effect.

참고

IDENTIFIER is mandatory if COVERAGE is not set. If both IDENTIFIER and COVERAGE parameters are defined, COVERAGE is always used in priority.

3.4.3. GetCoverage

This request allows to retrieve the coverage according to specific constraints like the extent or the CRS. Standard parameters for the DescribeCoverage request according to the OGC WCS 1.1.1 specifications:

BBOX

This parameter allows to specify the map extent in the units of the current CRS. Coordinates have to be separated by a comma. The BBOX parameter is formed like minx,miny,maxx,maxy.

URL 예시:

http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WCS
&REQUEST=GetCoverage
&IDENTIFIER=T20QPD_20171123T144719_TCI
&BBOX=647533,1805950,660987,1813940
&CRS=EPSG:32620

CRS

This parameter allows to indicate the Spatial Reference System of the BBOX parameter and has to be formed like EPSG:XXXX.

RESPONSE_CRS

This parameter allows to indicate the output response Spatial Reference System and has to be formed like EPSG:XXXX. The CRS of the corresponding coverage layer is used by default.

WIDTH

This parameter allows to specify the width in pixels of the output image. The resolution of the response image depends on this value.

HEIGHT

This parameter allows to specify the height in pixels of the output image. The resolution of the response image depends on this value.
