Load WMS with BBOX into my workbench

Hi!

I want to load a Web Map Service into my workbench with the FeatureReader. It works almost perfectly, but I want to use a bbox as a geographic filter for my WMS. The problem is that you can't insert a bbox in the WMS parameters of the reader. Is there a possibility to specify a bounding box?

Best Regards,

Felix

Your initiating feature should include the bounding box geometry (e.g. using the 2DBoxReplacer or the BoundingBoxReplacer), and in the FeatureReader you should set the spatial filter to "Envelope intersects".

Hi @felixdergluecklTrue, as @david_r mentions your initiating feature geometry can be used as a bbox for the request in the FeatureReader.

If you are dealing with non spatial initiators, you can build the service request and incorporate a bbox into it.

It's extremely easy to use the 2DBoxReplacer to turn your non-spatial initiator into a spatial initiator, however.
