HttpLayer.Url Property

Gets or sets the URL to a web mapping service.

Syntax

public System.String Url { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.String
Default: Must be specified in constructor.
The URL to the service.

Remarks

For an OgcWmsLayer, this URL identifies the OGC WMS service instance. For example, the following URL identifies a WMS service instance on a Carmenta Server demo server that provides a world map:

URL to a service instance on a Carmenta Server

http://demo.carmenta.com/SpatialAceWMS/OGCWMSInterface.axd?view=NiceWorldMap.View0

For an OgcWmtsLayer, this property specifies both the type of service, and identifies the service itself:

If the URL contains template parameters {x}, {y} or {-y}, and {z}, it is assumed to point to a slippy map tilenames service.
If it contains the hostname of a Bing Maps metadata server ("dev.virtualearth.net"), the layer will use the Bing Maps service.
Otherwise, the URL is assumed to identify an OGC WMTS service. To use a RESTful interface to the service, specify the full URL to the GetCapabilites document for the service. To use a KVP interface instead, specify the URL to the service endpoint.

You must call FlushCache if you modify this property so that the layer can re-initialize itself by issuing a new GetCapabilities request.

Platforms

Windows, Linux, Android

HttpLayer::url Property
