Dear all,

You have an article explaining how to create a WMS Service. Two operations are explained: GetCapabilities and GetMap (https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/19640/how-to-create-a-wms-service-using-fme-server.html).

However, we also need the GetfeatureInfo operation. Is it possible with FME? I have not found information about this operation. It would be very helpful to have a .fmw for the GetfeatureInfo operation, in case it's possible to create it.

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Montse Marco

    Unless the image is very small and the workspace always takes less than 20seconds to complete, I would suggest using a dedicated WMS Server software:

    I am also wondering if this is possible. I think the most challenging will be defining the coordinates from the client . The rest should be comparable to the GetMap request.

     

    Did anybody successfully implemented this? @mmarco​ @deanatsafe​ ?
