- <vendorParameter> : Any parameters you need FEWS to pass in the url in each request it sends to the WMS server. For example, if you wish to configure a wms layer and your WMS server supports several "Styles", you can ensure that FEWS requests the correct style by adding a vendorParameter element with name="Styles" and value="the value you want".

Note that the wmsLayers configured in the geoMap will be used as a background layer and will not be animated over time. If you wish to show a wms layer that contains time series data, you should configure a <gridPlot> which contains a <wmsLayer> element for the layer instead. More information on configuring animated wms layers can be found on the Grid Display configuration page.
