Many GIS/geodata editors nowadays include the Web Map Server protocol ([[WMS]]) from OGC, but often they lack support of free map services like OpenStreetMap and local images. OpenStreetMap serves as a free background map and it's cached, tiled and remote. Georeferenced local images very handy for getting special local knowledge into one's own geodata.

Note that local images need to be georeferenced and aligned to north before hand. See [[WorldFileTool]] for more information about georeferencing.

About...

Many GIS/geodata editors nowadays include the Web Map Server protocol (WMS) from OGC, but often they lack support of free map services like OpenStreetMap and local images. OpenStreetMap serves as a free background map and it's cached, tiled and remote. Georeferenced local images are handy for getting special local knowledge into one's own geodata.

Note that local images need to be georeferenced and aligned to north before hand. See WorldFileTool for more information about georeferencing.

DesktopWMS is based on an initial idea from GoogleWMS and has been reported to work with the following GIS and map viewer:

Users or programmers, please contact me (sfkeller(ät)hsr.ch if there are any questions. Programmers can browse and download the code here at Developer's Wiki.
