To reference the layer, you have to set all the WMS settings inside the displayed dialog.

  1. First you have to fill the Address field for the Web Map Service (we used http://ogc.bgs.ac.uk/cgi-bin/BGS_Bedrock_and_Superficial_Geology/wms).
  2. Choose the version of WMS server (most servers serve all the versions of WMS, so if you are not sure which one is good, you can trytry v1.3.0).
  3. Click the Get capabilities button to get the layer names from the server.
  4. Choose the layer, you want to reference.
  5. Write layer name. It has to be at least 3 characters long and consist exclusively of letters, numbers, underscores, spaces and dashes.
  6. Set SRS (Spatial Reference System) to EPSG:27700.
  7. Choose the tile images format and click OK.

Now the layer is referenced and ready for use. You can add it to the map.
