Automatic Coordinate Transformation

Supported by wroge/wgs84. Some WMS allow only a few coordinate reference systems. With wms map you can choose from a larger number of EPSG codes. Please open an issue in the wroge/wgs84 repository to support your specific system.

Download several bounding boxes

You can create a text file that contains all the required bounding boxes and download them concurrently. (Using Goroutines)

cat $HOME/bbox-wgs84.txt
9,52,9.2,52.2
9.2,52,9.4,52.2
9.4,52,9.6,52.2

wms map -u http://ows.terrestris.de/osm/service -B $HOME/bbox-wgs84.txt -w 1000 -e 4326

Configuration

You can change the configuration using --save or edit the configuration file $HOME/wms-config/.wms.yaml directly.

wms map -u http://ows.terrestris.de/osm/service -n example -e 25832 -l OSM-WMS/default --save terrestris --dry-run

Automatic image size calculation

GetMap-Requests require a WIDTHand a HEIGHTparameter. wms map calculates these parameters based on the UTM-size (ideal for small regions). You can define --height, --widthor --dpi & --scale.

wms map terrestris -b 565000,5930000,570000,5935000 --width 1000
http://ows.terrestris.de/osm/service?SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.1.1&FORMAT=image/jpeg&LAYERS=OSM-WMS&STYLES=default&SRS=EPSG:900913&WIDTH=1000&HEIGHT=1000&BBOX=1110998.5409540,7078815.1864107,1119515.6232213,7087111.5778055
