    • getNamedLayers

      public static Layer[] getNamedLayers(WMSCapabilities capabilities)
      Utility method to return each layer that has a name. This method maintains no hierarchy at all.
      Returns:
      An array of Layers, each value has a it's name property set or an empty array if there are none. It will return null if there is no capabilities document

    • getQueryableLayers

      public static Set getQueryableLayers(WMSCapabilities capabilities)

    • getSRSs

      public static Set getSRSs(WMSCapabilities capabilities)

    • findCommonEPSGs

      public static Set<String> findCommonEPSGs(List layers)
      Given a list of type Layer, return all EPSG codes that is supported by all of the layers. This is an intersection of each layer's SRS set.
      Parameters:
      layers - A List of type Layer
      Returns:
      a Set of type String, containin EPSG codes, or empty if none found

    • matchEPSG

      public static String matchEPSG(CoordinateReferenceSystem crs, Set codes)
      Given a CRS and a Set of type String consisting of EPSG CRS codes (such as "EPSG:4326"), it will check the transform that exists between each EPSG code's CRS and the given CRS. If this is the identity transform, meaning the CRS is equivalent to the EPSG code, the used EPSG code will be returned. The first valid EPSG code found is returned, so it is possibly that multiple valid codes exist.

      If no such identity transform can be found, null will be returned.

      If this method is succesful, the result is stored in a cache, which is called in subsequent calls.

      Parameters:
      crs - a CRS that is to be compared to each EPSG code in codes
      codes - a Set of type String containing EPSG codes
      Returns:
      an EPSG code that correspondes to crs, or null if one can't be found
