Overview
WMTS is an OpenGISĀ® Implementation Specification. The WMTS specification defines three HTTP operations:
- GetCapabilities
- GetFeatureInfo (not yet supported)
- GetTile
Only the GetCapabilities and GetTile operations are supported in this implementation.
The WMTS reader adheres to versions 1.0.0 of this specification, which can be found at the OpenGIS Consortium website.
Reader Overview
The WMTS reader supports PNG, GIF, JPEG, TIFF, and GeoTIFF raster tiles from the WMTS server.
The reader produces one feature type for the selected layer. Each tile retrieved for the selected layer will become an individual feature.
FME Raster Features
FME raster features represent raster data and use several concepts that are unlike those used in the handling of vector data. The topics below describe how FME processes raster data.
