[Qgis-user] Beginner pointers on how best to access specific web based GIS dataset
Using QGIS 3.22 on windows 10 Data of interest located generally at : http://www.gis2gps.com/GIS/illcounties/illcounties.html If click on the specific county of interest, say Fulton County IL, the link accessing the data is: https://fultonco.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=79f2fd5b27c94cce966ca9a02e0a16ee So this appears to be an ArcGIS server, but I'm struggling to give QGIS the right parameters to access the GIS data from Fulton county.

Hi Joe, As Richard pointed out, these are ArcGIS REST services so they won't play well with QGIS (who needs to use open-standards when you're the de-facto standard?). Some ArcGIS boxes do support WMS/WFS but they're a pain to manually figure out the URL (I couldn't quickly do it from the one you linked to). Your best bet is to use OGC services - WMS and WFS, etc. You can search almost a million such layers with GeoSeer; there seem to be 20 layers for Fulton, IL - https://www.geoseer.net/s.php?q=fulton+il - and thousands if you search for "Illinois".

Hi Joe, You need the link or web address for the WMS or WFS you are trying to access, all the links on the website you sent, is just a viewer. For example, we have a Web Map viewer at https://www.floodinfo.ie/map/floodplans/ We do provide WMS, at a different address, most of these will end on wms? Or wfs? Depending on the service you are looking for You will have to contact helpd...@sidwellco.com<mailto:helpd...@sidwellco.com> and see do they have WMS or WFS links to the data you require. Hope this helps Regards, Richard.
