Get ready for FOSSGIS 2013 in Rapperswil in June.

Registration is open. Get in quick because Early Bird Registration
closes on the 30. April!

http://www.fossgis.de/konferenz/2013/

The FOSSGIS-conference is the largest german-language conference for
Free and Open Source Software for GIS and Free Geodata hosting about 500
participants.

We are looking forward to see you in Rapperwil (Switzerland) June 12-14.
http://www.fossgis.de/konferenz/2013/

Your FOSSGIS-Team


Sehr geehrte FOSSGISler und FOSSGISlerinnen,

Neuigkeiten und Hintergründe zu Technologien und Entwicklungen aus dem
Bereich Open-Source-Geo-Software und freien Geodaten werden dieses Jahr
auf der FOSSGIS 2013 Rapperswil in der Schweiz präsentiert. Die FOSSGIS
und deutschsprachige OpenStreetMap Konferenz 2013 – die größte
deutschsprachige Anwenderkonferenz für freie Geo-Informationssysteme und
freie Geodaten – findet vom 12. bis 14. Juni 2013 statt.

Mehr als 60 Vorträge für Einsteiger, Experten und Entwickler, Hands-On
Workshops und Anwendertreffen geben einen Einblick in aktuelle
Anwendungsmöglichkeiten und Neuigkeiten. Der Themenbogen spannt sich von
der Datenaufbereitung in OpenStreetMap, über den Aufbau
Geodateninfrastrukturen bis hin zu Technologien zur Prozessierung und
Darstellung von umfangreichen Geodaten. Damit spiegelt sich auch der Trend
der steigenden Durchdringung des Internets mit Karten und Geodaten wieder.
Über die gleichzeitig stattfindende Firmenausstellung ist ein direkter
Kontakt zu Dienstleistern, die professionelle Unterstützung bieten,
möglich.

Zusätzlich zum fachlich orientierten Austausch in Community-Sessions und
Entwicklertreffen findet ein Social-Event statt, um den Austausch aller
Beteiligten - vom Benutzer über Entwickler und Mapper bis zum Entscheider
- zu intensivieren und gegenseitig von Ideen und Herausforderungen zu
lernen.

Die Konferenzgebühr beläuft sich für die gesamten drei Konferenztage auf
140,- EUR. Frühbucher zahlen hierbei bis 30.04.2013 nur 120,- EUR. Zudem
können auch in diesem Jahr wieder zahlreiche Workshops besucht werden. Die
Teilnahmegebühr für Workshops beträgt 100,- EUR (Frühbucher 90,- EUR) pro
Teilnehmer und Workshop. Alle Einnahmen gehen wie auch in den Jahren
zuvor, vollständig in die Finanzierung der Konferenz.

Da bis zu 400 Teilnehmer erwartet werden, ist eine Registrierung bis zum
04. Juni 2013 notwendig. Das Programm, Anmeldeformular und andere
organisatorische Informationen finden sich auf der Konferenzseite unter
http://www.fossgis.de/konferenz/2013/.

Die FOSSGIS Konferenz 2013 wird vom gemeinnützigen Verein FOSSGIS e.V, der
deutschen OpenStreetMap Community und der Open Source Geospatial
Foundation (OSGeo) in Zusammenarbeit mit HSR Hochschule für Technik
Rapperswil (Schweiz) durchgeführt.

Ihr FOSSGIS-Konferenz-Organisationsteam

[OSGeo-Discuss] OGC compliance of WMS client

2013-04-22 Thread Marco Lechner - FOSSGIS e.V.
Hi,

is a WMS-Client using REQUEST=getcapabilities instead of
REQUEST=GetCapabilities still in compliance with OGC standard
(VERSION1.1.1 as well as 1.3.0)? I don't think so, but I'm unsure.

Hi Marco,

it should be. There is a requirement within the WMS specification that
defines REQUEST=GetCapabilities to be supported by a WMS Server. But
it is not forbidden to have support for REQUEST=getcapabilities on
the server side, too. For WMS clients, this means, requests shall use
REQUEST=GetCapabilities because this is the only typing defined
within the specification.

Regards

Sebastian

The WMS client should use GetCapabilities, parameter values are case-sensitive. 

Parameter names are not case-sensitive.

Best regards,
Bart

Hi,

yes Andrea, but in my opinion it is not forbidden to have additional
support for the other alternative. You have to implement the case
sensitive KVP but it is not forbidden to implement the other additionally.

 My understanding is that it's not. All OGC KVP protocols are based
 on the following (stated in the common ows spec): the key is case
 insensitive, the value is case sensitive
 
 So, something like ReQueSt=GetCapabilities is valid, but 
 request=getcapabilities is not

That's a grey area in the spec indeed. There are CITE tests checking that
the key
is treated as case insensitive, but I don't remember one checking for case
sensitive
values.

It would be interesting to see if there is anything in the WMS client CITE
test suite?
Was it made public, by the way?

Cheers
Andrea

Hi,

all those posts confirm my understanding. @sebastian, of course its not
a problem to make a server more tolerant (as many wms-servers are) to
make it working with non-compliant clients, but the client has to use
the correct request to stay in compliance. No dissent here.

Hey,

CITE WMS Client test suite is available through the current Beta
release of TEAM Engine:

http://cite.opengeospatial.org/te2/

I think, the WMS Client test suite covers this.
