Plug-in description

This plug-in adds a WMS (Web Map Service) raster layer to Geomajas. WMS is an open standard from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) for providing georeferenced raster layers.

Similar to the other Geomajas layer plug-ins, the WMS layer provides access to external data sources. In other words, this plug-in will not create a WMS server out of your Geomajas application, but if you whish to include your own raster images, set up a WMS server, and use this plug-in to read from it.
