Error loading WMS data source

Hi,
I tried to display the WMS data source from http://services.data.shom.fr/INSPIRE/wms/r
I got the list of available data layers, but then, I had the following message:
Global Mapper v14.1.3 (b030413) [64-bit]
Error downloading WMS data tile
INSPIRE/wms/r?VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=DELMAR_PYR-PNG_WLD_WGS84G_WMS&FORMAT=image/png&STYLES=normal&SRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=156.625,-53,179,-16.125&WIDTH=512&HEIGHT=843&TRANSPARENT=TRUE
WMS server GetMap query failed with status code 400.


I had this message for all the layers I tried, except for the LITTO3D layer, for which the message was different:
Error loading WMS data source.
Empty bounding box for selected WMS layer.
OGCWMSOverlay.cpp - 480
Version: v14.1.3 (64-bit)

    I think you have to subscribe in some way to the data.shom.fr INSPIRE services and get some kind of an API key that you provide as part of the URL. I'm not entirely sure though and sometimes it is difficult to tell from the automatically translated pages. Do you see anything about needing to purchase a license to use those sources?

    Thanks,

    For this WMS, no subscription is needed, but the URL is built the same way as the WMS that need subscription except that "INSPIRE" replaces the key and no login and password is required.

    Dear All,

    I struggle with similar (same?) problem, please see message box below. Can diacritics be a problem (I mean non-standard characters like š, á, ü etc.)?
    The WMS service url is: http://geoportal.cuzk.cz/WMS_BODPOLE/WMService.aspx

    Ok good news on the INSPIRE sources. I took a look and discovered some changes in WMS 1.3.0 which INSPIRE uses which Global Mapper needed to use. Now that those changes are made the sources load fine. I have placed a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14.zip with the latest changes for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v14.xx installation folder to give it a try. If you are using the 64-bit v14 version there is a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14_64bit.zip .

    Thanks,

    Jiri,

    Your issue is just the Service Name that you provided when setting up the service. It should just be the default of WMS and not the string with the diacritic character that you provided. Once I change that the source seems ok.

    Thanks,

    Thank you Mike! It works seamlessly now.

    Interesting behaving of that WMS service: the info tool works only for features displayed close to the screen center while those at the screen margins are inactive. However, when moved to the center they become active in terms of displaying their info. Is it attribute of that WMS service or is it GM problem?

    Thank you,
    Jiri

    Jiri,

    I found a potential problem with the Feature Info fetch for some WMS layers that may have caused a problem with this. For your source I had to zoom in quite a bit for the feature info to work at all, but once it did it worked wherever the point was on the screen. I have placed a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14.zip with the latest changes for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v14.xx installation folder to give it a try.

    It works for all the layers (except for Litto3D) but the data is only loaded in the displayed area. If I move to another area, the layers are cut at the borders of the previous display area.
    for the litto3D layer, I cannot load the data and I get this message:
    "The specified WMS layer does not have data in the area selected for import."

    I took a look at the Litto3D source and just found it used a projection string that Global Mapper didn't recognize. That's fixed now and it loads for me (not much data in it though). I have placed a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14.zip with the latest changes for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v14.xx installation folder to give it a try.

    For the layer bounds, there is a checkbox on the bottom of the online source dialog where you can specify whether to crop the data exactly to the specified bounds or to allow panning around the entire data set but just setting the initial bounds to what you specify.

    it partly works now for the litto3d source, but there should be more data. For exemple, here are 2 screenshots:
    the first one is global mapper, and litto3D on the Mediterranean coast in the south of France, GM_litto3D.png

    and the second one is the same area with the data as it should appear (screenshot from data.shom.fr)

    The litto3D source has the following line listed for the bounding box:

    <BoundingBox miny="-22" minx="5" maxy="43" maxx="55" CRS="IGNF:WGS84G"/>

    This shows the layer stopping at 43 degrees north latitude. There is an additional EX_GeographicBoundingBox specified which shows a slightly larger bounding box for the layer which appears to be the correct one.

    -<EX_GeographicBoundingBox>
    <westBoundLongitude>5.46309</westBoundLongitude>
    <eastBoundLongitude>55.8465</eastBoundLongitude>
    <southBoundLatitude>-22.4159</southBoundLatitude>
    <northBoundLatitude>43.2758</northBoundLatitude>
    </EX_GeographicBoundingBox>

    I have updated Global Mapper to read in these bounds and make them available as a Projection select when adding the source as EPSG:4326 (lat/lon/WGS84). If you select that those specified bounds will be used rather than the incorrectly rounded whole number bounds for the default layer.

    I have placed a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14.zip with the latest changes for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v14.xx installation folder to give it a try.
