WMS Layers

This guide will walk you through the process of loading Web Map Service (WMS) layers in a React application using React-Leaflet for 2D maps and Resium for 3D maps. WMS is a standard protocol for serving georeferenced map images over the internet.

Web Mapping Services from the following institutions are being accessed to add layers to the map: - JNCC: https://jncc.gov.uk/our-work/marine-protected-area-mapper/ - EMODNET: https://emodnet.ec.europa.eu/en/emodnet-web-service-documentation

Loading WMS Layers with React-Leaflet

  1. Import Required Modules

    Import the necessary modules in your WMSLayer.js file:

    tsx import React from 'react'; import { MapContainer, TileLayer, WMSTileLayer } from 'react-leaflet';

  2. Define the WMS Layer

    Define the WMS layer within your component, specifying the URL, layers, and other options:

    ```tsx export function WMSLayer(){ return ( ); };

  3. Use the Component

    Import and use your WMSLayer component in your main application file:

    ```tsx import React from 'react'; import { WMSLayer } from './WMSLayer';

    export function App() { return (

    ); }

    export default App; ```

Loading WMS Layers with Resium (3D Maps)

  1. Import Required Modules

    tsx import React from 'react'; import { Viewer, ImageryLayer } from 'resium'; import Cesium from 'cesium';

  2. Define the WMS Layer

    Define the WMS layer within your component:

    tsx export function WMSLayer(){ return ( <Viewer full> <ImageryLayer imageryProvider={new Cesium.WebMapServiceImageryProvider({ url: 'URL_TO_YOUR_WMS_SERVICE', layers: 'LAYER_NAME', })} /> </Viewer> ); };
