[Geoserver-users] multiple layers

How do get multiple layers to a map? I am currently at the WMS Server
contents trying to create a base map but cannot figure out how to show more
than one layer?

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

Hi,

I am not sure how far you are right now, but basically:
- First you must configure your data layers for the WMS service
- And then get the layers you want by having a layer list included in the request.

This example request that comes with GeoServer installation gives one layer:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms?bbox=-130,24,-66,50&styles=&Format=image/png&request=GetMap&layers=topp:states&width=550&height=250&srs=EPSG:4326

Adding more layers to this part should give you more layers:
&layers=topp:states

By the way, the sample request seems to miss 'service' and 'version' parts which I suppose to be compulsory according to the WMS standard. Perhaps it would be better to make it complete, even if the request works like it is now. People are studying GeoServer by looking at these samples and modifying them for their own data.

Jukka,

Thanks a lot for the reply. I'm currently looking into uDIG for integrating
into GeoServer and see how they interact. On paper it looks good :slight_smile: However
I appreciate the tip and will try that out. Thanks again.
