  • showContours (optional, since 2018.02): Display contour lines if enabled in the gridplot. Default is false. Set to true to show contour lines.
  • externalForecastTime (optional, dateTime: yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ, since 2019.02): get the map for a specific forecast time. If omitted the latest/current forecast is returned
  • importFromExternalDataSource (boolean, optional, default=false, since 2020.01): apply seamless integration with the archive. Only valid for external forecasts. Both an externalForecast time and layers have to be specified as well.
  • ensembleId (optional). Since 2020.01. Specify the ensemble id of the requested grid. When using this parameter, specifying the ensembleMemberId is required as well. The available ensembleId is reported by the GetCapabilities request.
  • ensembleMemberId (optional). Since 2020.01. Specify the ensemble member id of the requested grid. When using this parameter, specifying the ensembleId is required as well. The available ensembleMemberIds are reported by the GetCapabilities request.
  • dim_ensemble_member (optional). Since 2020.01. This parameter can be used instead of the ensembleId and ensembleMemberId parameters and follow the recommendations in: https://docs.opengeospatial.org/bp/16-086r3/16-086r3.html#23. This parameter can be used to pass both the ensembleId and ensembleMemberId separated by a underscore. For example: dim_ensemble_member=MOSurge_1
  • colorScaleRange (optional, since 2020.02): rescale the colors in the map by changing the min and max values of the range. The minimum value and maximum value are separated by a comma, For example: colorscalerange=2.0,10.0. This option can be used for legends as well. Best It is best to also specify use this parameter together with useDisplayUnits.
  • useDisplayUnits (optional, boolean, default = false): Specifies whether display units (true) or system units (false) are assumed for the provided colorScaleRange.
  • convertUVtoRG (optional, default = false, since 2021.02):  Only supported in combination with format=image/tiff for wind layers using u and v time series sets. The u and v values will be stored in the R and G values of a TIFF image. The alpha channel is set to 255 if the pixel maps to a grid value. If the pixel is outside the grid, the alpha channel is set to 0. The scales and offsets are stored in geo tiff tags: ModelPixelScaleTag (first double contains the scale for u values, the second double contains the scale for v values) and ModelTiepointTag (first double contains the offset for u values, the second double contains the offset for v values). To calculate the u an v values the pixel values for R and G channels should be multiplied by the scale value and the offset should be added. For example. The R value of a pixel in the TIFF value has value: 200, the u scale = 0.1 and the u offset is 1.0. The u value = 200*0.1 + 1.0 = 21.0. A missing value is indicated by setting the R and G value to 255.
  • convertMagnitudeDirectiontoRG (optional, default = false, planned for 2021.02): not implemented yet.

The following WMS specific properties can be configured in the FewsPiService.properties file. For more information on properties, see: FEWS Web Services Configuration FewsPiService.properties (- deprecated since 2022.02)

  • WMS_BASE_URL (string): url that will be reported in the GetCapabilities response as URL to be used to request maps.

  • WMS_CLIENT_CACHE_TIMEOUT (integer): Timeout of the cache in seconds, that is sent to the browser. default is 300 seconds (15 minutes). To disable caching, set the timeout to 0.

  • WMS_ALLOWED_GRID_PLOT_GROUP_ID (string): Id of the grid plot group which layers will be made available in the WMS service. If not configured, all layers are available.
  • WMS_IMAGE_MAX_WIDTH_HEIGHT (integer): The maximum size of the WIDTH and HEIGHT product GetMap parameters. For 2020.01 the default is set to 10 million (The default before 2020.01 was set to 2304000, the full HD resolution of 1920x1200). N.B.: The higher this value is set, the more memory is required to generated the WMS images.
  • WMS_MAX_NUMBER_OF_CACHED_LAYERS (integer, since 2019.02, obsolete since 2020.01 since layers are no longer cached): The maximum number of layers that are cached in the WMS services. The default is 100. The optimal number depends on the amount of memory available and the number of configured layers and the size of the layers. When the WMS runs into Out Of Memory issues, the size of the number should be lowered or the memory increased. 
  • WMS_PRELOAD_CAPABILITIES (boolean, default false, since 2019.02): The first request to GetCapabilities might take long if a lot of grids are configured. To preload these grids on startup, the WMS_PRELOAD_CAPABILITIES can be set to true. This will make the first request to GetCapabilities fast as well.
