OGC データサーバとしての QGIS¶

Debian Squeezeのインストールサンプル¶

この時点で,Debian SqueezeのためのHowToとなる短くて簡単なサンプル設定を提供します.他の多くのOSが QGIS サーバのためにパッケージを提供しています.もしソースからすべてを構築する必要がある場合は,上記ののURLを参照してください.

Apart from QGIS and QGIS Server, you need a web server, in our case apache2. You can install all packages with aptitude or apt-get install together with other necessary dependency packages. After installation, you should test to confirm that the web server and QGIS Server work as expected. Make sure the apache server is running with /etc/init.d/apache2 start. Open a web browser and type URL: http://localhost. If apache is up, you should see the message ‘It works!’.

ここで QGIS サーバインストレーションのテストをしましょう. qgis_mapserv.fcgi が /usr/lib/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi で使えるはずです,そして標準WMS でAlaskaの州境界線が表示されるはずです. Selecting WMS/WMTS Servers に記述されているように URL http://localhost/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi をWMSとして追加して下さい.

Creating a WMS/WFS/WCS from a QGIS project¶

新しい QGIS サーバから WMS, WFS または WCSを配信するためには, なんらかのデータを使って QGIS プロジェクトファイルを作らなければいけません. ここでは QGIS サンプルデータセットの ‘Alaska’ shapefileを使いましょう. 指定が無い場合は QGIS で色とスタイルとプロジェクトのCRSを指定して下さい.

Then, go to the OWS Server menu of the Project ‣ Project Properties dialog and provide some information about the OWS in the fields under Service Capabilities. This will appear in the GetCapabilities response of the WMS, WFS or WCS. If you don’t check Service capabilities, QGIS Server will use the information given in the wms_metadata.xml file located in the cgi-bin folder.

WMS capabilities

In the WMS capabilities section, you can define the extent advertised in the WMS GetCapabilities response by entering the minimum and maximum X and Y values in the fields under Advertised extent. Clicking Use Current Canvas Extent sets these values to the extent currently displayed in the QGIS map canvas. By checking CRS restrictions, you can restrict in which coordinate reference systems (CRS) QGIS Server will offer to render maps. Use the button below to select those CRS from the Coordinate Reference System Selector, or click Used to add the CRS used in the QGIS project to the list.

If you have print composers defined in your project, they will be listed in the GetCapabilities response, and they can be used by the GetPrint request to create prints, using one of the print composer layouts as a template. This is a QGIS-specific extension to the WMS 1.3.0 specification. If you want to exclude any print composer from being published by the WMS, check Exclude composers and click the button below. Then, select a print composer from the Select print composer dialog in order to add it to the excluded composers list.

If you want to exclude any layer or layer group from being published by the WMS, check Exclude Layers and click the button below. This opens the Select restricted layers and groups dialog, which allows you to choose the layers and groups that you don’t want to be published. Use the Shift or Ctrl key if you want to select multiple entries at once.

あなたは GetFeatureInfo リクエストをプレインテキスト XML と GMLの形式で受け取ることができます. デフォルトは XMLです, テキストまたは GML形式はGetFeatureInfo リクエストの出力用に選択されたときに利用されます.

If you wish, you can check Add geometry to feature response. This will include in the GetFeatureInfo response the geometries of the features in a text format. If you want QGIS Server to advertise specific request URLs in the WMS GetCapabilities response, enter the corresponding URL in the Advertised URL field. Furthermore, you can restrict the maximum size of the maps returned by the GetMap request by entering the maximum width and height into the respective fields under Maximums for GetMap request.

If one of your layers uses the Map Tip display (i.e. to show text using expressions) this will be listed inside the GetFeatureInfo output. If the layer uses a Value Map for one of his attributes, also this information will be shown in the GetFeatureInfo output.

WFS capabilities

In the WFS capabilities area, you can select the layers that you want to publish as WFS, and specify if they will allow the update, insert and delete operations. If you enter a URL in the Advertised URL field of the WFS capabilities section, QGIS Server will advertise this specific URL in the WFS GetCapabilities response.

WCS capabilities

In the WCS capabilities area, you can select the layers that you want to publish as WCS. If you enter a URL in the Advertised URL field of the WCS capabilities section, QGIS Server will advertise this specific URL in the WCS GetCapabilities response.

Now, save the session in a project file alaska.qgs. To provide the project as a WMS/WFS, we create a new folder /usr/lib/cgi-bin/project with admin privileges and add the project file alaska.qgs and a copy of the qgis_mapserv.fcgi file - that’s all.

Now we test our project WMS, WFS and WCS. Add the WMS, WFS and WCS as described in WMS/WMTS レイヤの読み込み, WFS および WFS-T クライアント and WCS クライアント to QGIS and load the data. The URL is:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/project/qgis_mapserv.fcgi
