[Geoserver-users] WMS layer in Google Earth failed

Daniel_Yu · September 23, 2021, 6:25pm

Hi,

I just started to learn how to setup goeserver in my workstation and publish WMS layers, I can successfully see the WMS layer map in ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Pro and Global Mapper. Please see example from ArcGIS Desktop

But in Google Earth, I keep getting “WMS Capability fetch failed” message. Does anyone know why and how I can fix it?

Thanks,

Daniel

Daniel,

try with the complete GetCapabilities URL.

In your case :

http://2014-0301:8080/geoserver/MEMS/ows?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS

Try to see if anything comes up with this url in a browser.

Hope this helps.

in getcapabilities you should have something like…

image/png
application/atom+xml
application/json;type=utfgrid
application/pdf
application/rss+xml
application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml
application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml;mode=networklink
…

see this

https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wms/googleearth/quickstart.html#direct-access-to-kml

and in google earth try with network link

Consider adding the complete URL information: SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GETCAPABILITIES&ZVERSION=1.3.0

I expect the other projects filled in these details for you.

Yes network link can be vector format as long as you use a wfs url with output format kml (application%2Fvnd.google-earth.kml%2Bxml)

e.g.
http://<geoserver_url>/ows?SERVICE=WFS&Request=GetFeature&VERSION=1.3.0&TYPENAME=workspace:layer_namet&outputFormat=application%2Fvnd.google-earth.kml%2Bxml
