WFS Reference
- Wojciech Mozolewski
This is a dedicated tool for creating the Web Feature Service layer reference along with the database table.
Please keep in mind, that the layer reference directory is defined by the Default layer directory set in Global User Settings. If you would like to customise the layer directory, please visit the Web Feature Service section at the bottom of the From Existing Table documentation page.
Selecting this tool will display the Reference WFS window consisting of 6 elements:
Address - here you can provide the service URL and use the Fetch button to send the GetCapabilities request and acquire the service content.
Version - here you can set the service version
Layers - the service content will be displayed here after using the Fetch button from section 1. You can select multiple tables to be downloaded from the service as well as define the tables and layer references names.
Refresh job - in this dropdown, you can select the previously configured Scheduler job which will periodically refresh the WFS table.
Overwrite tables - check this option if you would like to overwrite the preexisting tables in your database.
This section displays the directory in your repository where the WFS layer reference will be created.
After filling in all the necessary information simply click Reference and the WFS layer will be created in your repository along with the database table.
