Notes
The WMS server limits the maximum size of the image.
Parameters
There are 2 options to specify the bounding box. Either use lat, long, width and height or use north, south, east and west.
- lat: lattitude of the center of the map (default:50.00)
- long: longitude of the center of the map (default:123.00}
- height: height of the map in km (default:5km)
- width: width of the map in km (default:5km)
- scale: map scale in pixels / km (default:110 pixels/km). In order to get the most detailed contour lines (20m intervals), a minimum scale of 110 pixels/km is required.
- link: text to appear in the link
- north: lattitude of top of bounding box
- south: lattitude of bottom of bounding box
- east: lattitude of right side of bounding box
- west: lattitude of left side of bounding box
calculation notes
- 1 nautical mile = 1.85200km
- 1 degree lattitude = 60 nautical miles = 111.12km
- 1 degree longitude = 111.12km * cos (lattitude)
