Hi again. Using MapBasic 15, is there any way to retrieve data from a WMS layer?
Data is shown in the Info-window but i don't know how to get it by code.
WMS cannot be accessed as a grid.
Any idea? Thank you very much.

Hi

 

The data from a WMS service can be requested through the GetFeatureInfo service that many WMS services publish.

You can create a custom tool or function for requesting this data for a given point.

Not an easy task however

Thank you Peter. I'll explore it.
Have recent versions of MIpro any built-in capability for this issue?

I’d probably go down the route of doing this either through .NET or through Python.

You can write Python code directly through the Python console or through the SQL Window in the later versions of MapInfo Pro (v2019/v2021)

Or even load .py files like you would load a MapBasic application
