VERSION
This parameter allows to specify the version of the service to use.
Available values for the VERSION
parameter are:
1.1.1
1.3.0
According to the version number, slight differences have to be expected as explained later for the next parameters:
CRS
/SRS
BBOX
LAYERS
This parameter allows to specify the layers to display on the map. Names have to be separated by a comma.
In addition, QGIS Server introduced some options to select layers by:
the layer id: the project option allowing to select layers by their id is in Use layer ids as names checkbox to activate this option.
tab of the dialog. Check the
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&LAYERS=mylayerid1,mylayerid2
&...
STYLES
This parameter can be used to specify a layer's style for the
rendering step.
Styles have to be separated by a comma. The name of the default style
is default
.
SRS / CRS
This parameter allows to indicate the map output Spatial Reference
System in WMS 1.1.1 and has to be formed like EPSG:XXXX
.
Note that CRS
is also supported if current version is 1.1.1.
For WMS 1.3.0, CRS
parameter is preferable but SRS
is also
supported.
Note that if both CRS
and SRS
parameters are indicated in the
request, then it's the current version indicated in VERSION
parameter which is decisive.
In the next case, the SRS
parameter is kept whatever the
VERSION
parameter because CRS
is not indicated:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.3.0
&SRS=EPSG:2854
&...
In the next case, the SRS
parameter is kept instead of CRS
because of the VERSION
parameter:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.1.1
&CRS=EPSG:4326
&SRS=EPSG:2854
&...
In the next case, the CRS
parameter is kept instead of SRS
because of the VERSION
parameter:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.3.0
&CRS=EPSG:4326
&SRS=EPSG:2854
&...
BBOX
This parameter allows to specify the map extent with units according to the current CRS. Coordinates have to be separated by a comma.
The BBOX
parameter is formed like min_a,min_b,max_a,max_b
but a
and
b
axis definition is different according to the current VERSION
parameter:
in WMS 1.1.1, the axis ordering is always east/north
in WMS 1.3.0, the axis ordering depends on the CRS authority
For example in case of EPSG:4326
and WMS 1.1.1, a
is the longitude
(east) and b
the latitude (north), leading to a request like:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.1.1
&SRS=epsg:4326
&BBOX=-180,-90,180,90
&...
But in case of WMS 1.3.0, the axis ordering defined in the EPSG database is
north/east so a
is the latitude and b
the longitude:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.3.0
&CRS=epsg:4326
&BBOX=-90,-180,90,180
&...
WIDTH
This parameter allows to specify the width in pixels of the output image.
HEIGHT
This parameter allows to specify the height in pixels of the output image.
FORMAT
This parameter may be used to specify the format of map image. Available values are:
jpg
jpeg
image/jpeg
image/png
image/png; mode=1bit
image/png; mode=8bit
image/png; mode=16bit
image/webp
application/dxf
: only layers that have read access in the WFS service are exported in the DXF formatURL example:
http://localhost/qgisserver? SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0 &REQUEST=GetMap &FORMAT=application/dxf &LAYERS=Haltungen,Normschacht,Spezialbauwerke &CRS=EPSG%3A21781 &BBOX=696136.28844801,245797.12108743,696318.91114315,245939.25832905 &WIDTH=1042 &HEIGHT=811 &FORMAT_OPTIONS=MODE:SYMBOLLAYERSYMBOLOGY;SCALE:250 &FILE_NAME=plan.dxf
TRANSPARENT
This boolean parameter can be used to specify the background transparency. Available values are (not case sensitive):
TRUE
FALSE
However, this parameter is ignored if the format of the image indicated with
FORMAT
is different from PNG.
BGCOLOR
This parameter allows to indicate a background color for the map image.
However it cannot be combined with TRANSPARENT
parameter in case of
PNG images (transparency takes priority). The colour may be literal or
in hexadecimal notation.
URL example with the literal notation:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.3.0
&BGCOLOR=green
&...
URL example with the hexadecimal notation:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.3.0
&BGCOLOR=0x00FF00
&...
DPI
This parameter can be used to specify the requested output resolution.
IMAGE_QUALITY
This parameter is only used for JPEG images. By default, the JPEG
compression is -1
.
You can change the default per QGIS project in the
GetMap
request you can do it using
the IMAGE_QUALITY
parameter.
OPACITIES
Comma separated list of opacity values.
Opacity can be set on layer or group level. Allowed values range from
0
(fully transparent) to 255
(fully opaque).
URL example:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.3.0
&WIDTH=400
&HEIGHT=200
&CRS=EPSG:4326
&LAYERS=countries,places
&BBOX=42,-6,52,15
&OPACITIES=255,0
FILTER
A subset of layers can be selected with the FILTER
parameter.
The syntax is basically the same as for the QGIS subset string.
However, there are some restrictions to avoid SQL injections into
databases via QGIS Server.
If a dangerous string is found in the parameter, QGIS Server will
return the next error:
<ServiceExceptionReport>
<ServiceException code="Security">The filter string XXXXXXXXX has been rejected because of security reasons.
Note: Text strings have to be enclosed in single or double quotes. A space between each word / special character is mandatory.
Allowed Keywords and special characters are IS,NOT,NULL,AND,OR,IN,=,<,=<,>,>=,!=,',',(,),DMETAPHONE,SOUNDEX.
Not allowed are semicolons in the filter expression.</ServiceException>
</ServiceExceptionReport>
URL example:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&VERSION=1.3.0
&WIDTH=400
&HEIGHT=300
&CRS=EPSG:4326
&BBOX=41,-6,52,10
&LAYERS=countries_shapeburst,countries,places
&FILTER=countries_shapeburst,countries:"name" = 'France';places: "name" = 'Paris'
In this example, the same filter "name" = 'France'
is applied to layers
countries
and countries_shapeburst
, while the filter "name" =
'Paris'
is only applied to places
.
备注
It is possible to make attribute searches via GetFeatureInfo and omit the X/Y parameter if a FILTER is there. QGIS Server then returns info about the matching features and generates a combined bounding box in the XML output.
SELECTION
The SELECTION
parameter can highlight features from one or more
layers.
Vector features can be selected by passing comma separated lists with
feature ids.
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&LAYERS=mylayer1,mylayer2
&SELECTION=mylayer1:3,6,9;mylayer2:1,5,6
&...
The following image presents the response from a GetMap request using
the SELECTION
option e.g.
http://myserver.com/...&SELECTION=countries:171,65
.
As those features id's correspond in the source dataset to France and Romania they're highlighted in yellow.
FORMAT_OPTIONS
This parameter can be used to specify options for the selected format.
Only for FORMAT=application/dxf
in GetMap request.
Takes a list of key:value pairs separated by semicolon:
SCALE: to be used for symbology rules, filters and styles (not actual scaling of the data - data remains in the original scale).
MODE: corresponds to the export options offered in the QGIS Desktop DXF export dialog. Possible values are
NOSYMBOLOGY
,FEATURESYMBOLOGY
andSYMBOLLAYERSYMBOLOGY
.LAYERATTRIBUTES: specify a field or in case of many layers a comma separated list of fields that contains values for DXF layer names - if not specified, the original QGIS layer names are used.
USE_TITLE_AS_LAYERNAME: if enabled, the title of the layer will be used as layer name.
CODEC: specify a codec to be used for encoding. Default is
ISO-8859-1
check the QGIS desktop DXF export dialog for valid values.NO_MTEXT: Use TEXT instead of MTEXT for labels.
FORCE_2D: Force 2D output. This is required for polyline width.
TILED
For performance reasons, QGIS Server can be used in tiled mode. In this mode, the client requests several small fixed size tiles, and assembles them to form the whole map. Doing this, symbols at or near the boundary between two tiles may appeared cut, because they are only present in one of the tile.
Set the TILED
parameter to TRUE
to tell QGIS Server to work in
tiled mode, and to apply the Tile buffer configured in the QGIS
project (see Configure your project).
When TILED
is TRUE
and when a non-zero Tile buffer is
configured in the QGIS project, features outside the tile extent are
drawn to avoid cut symbols at tile boundaries.
TILED
defaults to FALSE
.

"type":"layer"
}
],
"title":""
}
SRCWIDTH
This parameter may de defined when the RULE
parameter is set. In this case,
the SRCWIDTH
value is forwarded to the underlying GetMap
request as the
WIDTH
parameter while the WIDTH
parameter of GetLegendGraphic
is
used for the image legend size.
SRCHEIGHT
This parameter may de defined when the RULE
parameter is set. In this case,
the SRCHEIGHT
value is forwarded to the underlying GetMap
request as
the HEIGHT
parameter while the HEIGHT
parameter of GetLegendGraphic
is used for the image legend size.
SHOWFEATURECOUNT

Note that the layout template may contain more than one map.
In this way, if you want to configure a specific map, you have to use
mapX:
parameters where X
is a positive number that you can
retrieve thanks to the GetProjectSettings request.
For example:
<WMS_Capabilities>
...
<ComposerTemplates xsi:type="wms:_ExtendedCapabilities">
<ComposerTemplate width="297" height="210" name="Druckzusammenstellung 1">
<ComposerMap width="171" height="133" name="map0"/>
<ComposerMap width="49" height="46" name="map1"/></ComposerTemplate>
</ComposerTemplates>
...
</WMS_Capabilities>

ATLAS_PK
This parameter allows activation of Atlas rendering by indicating
which features we want to print.
In order to retrieve an atlas with all features, the *
symbol may
be used (according to the maximum number of features allowed in the
project configuration).
When FORMAT
is pdf
, a single PDF document combining the feature
pages is returned.
For all other formats, a single page is returned.
mapX:EXTENT
This parameter specifies the extent for a layout map item as xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax.
mapX:ROTATION
This parameter specifies the map rotation in degrees.

This parameter specifies the grid line density in the X direction.
mapX:GRID_INTERVAL_Y
This parameter specifies the grid line density in the Y direction.
mapX:SCALE
This parameter specifies the map scale for a layout map item. This is useful to ensure scale based visibility of layers and labels even if client and server may have different algorithms to calculate the scale denominator.
mapX:LAYERS
This parameter specifies the layers for a layout map item. See GetMap Layers for more information on this parameter.
mapX:STYLES
This parameter specifies the layers' styles defined in a specific layout map item. See GetMap Styles for more information on this parameter.
3.2.8. GetProjectSettings
This request type works similar to GetCapabilities, but it is more specific to QGIS Server and allows a client to read additional information which are not available in the GetCapabilities output:
initial visibility of layers
information about vector attributes and their edit types
information about layer order and drawing order
list of layers published in WFS
show if a group in the layer tree is mutually exclusive
The GetProjectSettings request supports the following parameters:
Parameter |
Required |
描述 |
---|---|---|
Yes |
QGIS project file |
|
Yes |
Name of the service (WMS) |
|
Yes |
Name of the request (GetProjectSettings) |
3.2.9. GetSchemaExtension
The GetSchemaExtension request allows to retrieve optional extended capabilities and operations of the WMS service such as implemented by QGIS Server.
Parameter |
Required |
描述 |
---|---|---|
Yes |
QGIS project file |
|
Yes |
Name of the service (WMS) |
|
Yes |
Name of the request (GetSchemaExtension) |
URL example:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetSchemaExtension
The XML document looks like:
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:wms="http://www.opengis.net/wms" xmlns:qgs="http://www.qgis.org/wms" targetNamespace="http://www.qgis.org/wms" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0.0">

<element name="GetPrint" type="wms:OperationType" substitutionGroup="wms:_ExtendedOperation"/>
<element name="GetStyles" type="wms:OperationType" substitutionGroup="wms:_ExtendedOperation"/>
</schema>
3.2.10. External WMS layers
QGIS Server allows including layers from external WMS servers in WMS GetMap and WMS GetPrint requests. This is especially useful if a web client uses an external background layer in the web map. For performance reasons, such layers should be directly requested by the web client (not cascaded via QGIS server). For printing however, these layers should be cascaded via QGIS server in order to appear in the printed map.
External layers can be added to the LAYERS parameter as EXTERNAL_WMS:<layername>. The parameters for the external WMS layers (e.g. url, format, dpiMode, crs, layers, styles) can later be given as service parameters <layername>:<parameter>. In a GetMap request, this might look like this:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetMap
&LAYERS=EXTERNAL_WMS:basemap,layer1,layer2
&OPACITIES=100,200,255
&STYLES=,,
&basemap:url=http://externalserver.com/wms.fcgi
&basemap:format=image/jpeg
&basemap:dpiMode=7
&basemap:crs=EPSG:2056
&basemap:layers=orthofoto
&basemap:styles=default
Similarly, external layers can be used in GetPrint requests:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&REQUEST=GetPrint
&TEMPLATE=A4
&map0:layers=EXTERNAL_WMS:basemap,layer1,layer2
&map0:EXTENT=<minx,miny,maxx,maxy>
&OPACITIES=100,200,255
&basemap:url=http://externalserver.com/wms.fcgi
&basemap:format=image/jpeg
&basemap:dpiMode=7
&basemap:crs=EPSG:2056
&basemap:layers=orthofoto
&basemap:styles=default
3.2.11. Redlining
This feature is available and can be used with GetMap and GetPrint requests.
The redlining feature can be used to pass geometries and labels in the request which are overlapped by the server over the standard returned image (map). This permits the user to put emphasis or maybe add some comments (labels) to some areas, locations etc. that are not in the standard map.
The GetMap request is in the format:
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&VERSION=1.3.0
&REQUEST=GetMap
&HIGHLIGHT_GEOM=POLYGON((590000 5647000, 590000 6110620, 2500000 6110620, 2500000 5647000, 590000 5647000))
&HIGHLIGHT_SYMBOL=<StyledLayerDescriptor><UserStyle><Name>Highlight</Name><FeatureTypeStyle><Rule><Name>Symbol</Name><LineSymbolizer><Stroke><SvgParameter name="stroke">%23ea1173</SvgParameter><SvgParameter name="stroke-opacity">1</SvgParameter><SvgParameter name="stroke-width">1.6</SvgParameter></Stroke></LineSymbolizer></Rule></FeatureTypeStyle></UserStyle></StyledLayerDescriptor>
&HIGHLIGHT_LABELSTRING=Write label here
&HIGHLIGHT_LABELSIZE=16
&HIGHLIGHT_LABELCOLOR=%23000000
&HIGHLIGHT_LABELBUFFERCOLOR=%23FFFFFF
&HIGHLIGHT_LABELBUFFERSIZE=1.5
The GetPrint equivalent is in the format (note that
mapX:
parameter is added to tell which map has redlining):
http://localhost/qgisserver?
SERVICE=WMS
&VERSION=1.3.0
&REQUEST=GetPrint
&map0:HIGHLIGHT_GEOM=POLYGON((590000 5647000, 590000 6110620, 2500000 6110620, 2500000 5647000, 590000 5647000))
&map0:HIGHLIGHT_SYMBOL=<StyledLayerDescriptor><UserStyle><Name>Highlight</Name><FeatureTypeStyle><Rule><Name>Symbol</Name><LineSymbolizer><Stroke><SvgParameter name="stroke">%23ea1173</SvgParameter><SvgParameter name="stroke-opacity">1</SvgParameter><SvgParameter name="stroke-width">1.6</SvgParameter></Stroke></LineSymbolizer></Rule></FeatureTypeStyle></UserStyle></StyledLayerDescriptor>
&map0:HIGHLIGHT_LABELSTRING=Write label here
&map0:HIGHLIGHT_LABELSIZE=16
&map0:HIGHLIGHT_LABELCOLOR=%23000000
&map0:HIGHLIGHT_LABELBUFFERCOLOR=%23FFFFFF
&map0:HIGHLIGHT_LABELBUFFERSIZE=1.5
Here is the image outputed by the above request in which a polygon and a label are drawn on top of the normal map:
You can see there are several parameters in this request to control the redlining feature. The full list includes:
HIGHLIGHT_GEOM: You can add POINT, MULTILINESTRING, POLYGON etc. It supports multipart geometries. Here is an example:
HIGHLIGHT_GEOM=MULTILINESTRING((0 0, 0 1, 1 1))
. The coordinates should be in the CRS of the GetMap/GetPrint request.HIGHLIGHT_LABELBUFFERCOLOR: This parameter controls the label buffer color.
HIGHLIGHT_LABELBUFFERSIZE: This parameter controls the label buffer size.
HIGHLIGHT_LABELCOLOR: This parameter controls the label color.
HIGHLIGHT_LABEL_DISTANCE: controls the distance between feature (e.g. point or line) and the label in mm
HIGHLIGHT_LABELFONT: This parameter controls the font of the label (e.g. Arial)
HIGHLIGHT_LABEL_HORIZONTAL_ALIGNMENT: places the label horizontally on a point using the specified alignment (e.g. 'left', 'center', 'right')
HIGHLIGHT_LABEL_ROTATION: controls the label rotation in degrees
HIGHLIGHT_LABELSIZE: This parameter controls the size of the label.
HIGHLIGHT_LABELSTRING: You can pass your labeling text to this parameter.
HIGHLIGHT_LABEL_VERTICAL_ALIGNMENT: places the label vertically on a point using the specified alignment (e.g. 'top', 'half', 'bottom')
HIGHLIGHT_SYMBOL: This controls how the geometry is outlined and you can change the stroke width, color and opacity.
