Description / Abstract:
This International Standard specifies the behaviour of a service
that produces spatially referenced maps dynamically from geographic
information. It specifies operations to retrieve a description of
the maps offered by a server to retrieve a map, and to query a
server about features displayed on a map. This International
Standard is applicable to pictorial renderings of maps in a
graphical format; it is not applicable to retrieval of actual
feature data or coverage data values.
