# WebMapServiceImageryProvider

#### new Cesium.WebMapServiceImageryProvider(options)
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 93

  Provides tiled imagery hosted by a Web Map Service (WMS) server.

  Name | Type | Description
  --- | --- | ---

  `options`

  Object

  Object with the following properties:

  Name | Type | Default | Description
  --- | --- | --- | ---
  `url` | String |  | The URL of the WMS service. The URL supports the same keywords as the `UrlTemplateImageryProvider`.
  `layers` | String |  | The layers to include, separated by commas.
  `parameters` | Object | `WebMapServiceImageryProvider.DefaultParameters` | optional Additional parameters to pass to the WMS server in the GetMap URL.
  `getFeatureInfoParameters` | Object | `WebMapServiceImageryProvider.GetFeatureInfoDefaultParameters` | optional Additional parameters to pass to the WMS server in the GetFeatureInfo URL.

  `enablePickFeatures`

  Boolean

  `true`

  optional If true, `WebMapServiceImageryProvider#pickFeatures` will invoke the GetFeatureInfo operation on the WMS server and return the features included in the response. If false, `WebMapServiceImageryProvider#pickFeatures` will immediately return undefined (indicating no pickable features) without communicating with the server. Set this property to false if you know your WMS server does not support GetFeatureInfo or if you don't want this provider's features to be pickable. Note that this can be dynamically overridden by modifying the WebMapServiceImageryProvider#enablePickFeatures property.

  `getFeatureInfoFormats` | Array.<GetFeatureInfoFormat> | `WebMapServiceImageryProvider.DefaultGetFeatureInfoFormats` | optional The formats in which to try WMS GetFeatureInfo requests.
  `rectangle` | Rectangle | `Rectangle.MAX_VALUE` | optional The rectangle of the layer.
  `tilingScheme` | TilingScheme | `new GeographicTilingScheme()` | optional The tiling scheme to use to divide the world into tiles.
  `ellipsoid` | Ellipsoid |  | optional The ellipsoid. If the tilingScheme is specified, this parameter is ignored and the tiling scheme's ellipsoid is used instead. If neither parameter is specified, the WGS84 ellipsoid is used.
  `tileWidth` | Number | `256` | optional The width of each tile in pixels.
  `tileHeight` | Number | `256` | optional The height of each tile in pixels.
  `minimumLevel` | Number | `0` | optional The minimum level-of-detail supported by the imagery provider. Take care when specifying this that the number of tiles at the minimum level is small, such as four or less. A larger number is likely to result in rendering problems.
  `maximumLevel` | Number |  | optional The maximum level-of-detail supported by the imagery provider, or undefined if there is no limit. If not specified, there is no limit.
  `credit` | Credit | String |  | optional A credit for the data source, which is displayed on the canvas.
  `proxy` | Object |  | optional A proxy to use for requests. This object is expected to have a getURL function which returns the proxied URL, if needed.
  `subdomains` | String | Array.<String> | `'abc'` | optional The subdomains to use for the `{s}` placeholder in the URL template. If this parameter is a single string, each character in the string is a subdomain. If it is an array, each element in the array is a subdomain.

  ##### Example:

### Members

#### staticconstantCesium.WebMapServiceImageryProvider.DefaultParameters
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 464

  The default parameters to include in the WMS URL to obtain images. The values are as follows: service=WMS version=1.1.1 request=GetMap styles= format=image/jpeg

#### staticconstantCesium.WebMapServiceImageryProvider.GetFeatureInfoDefaultParameters
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 480

  The default parameters to include in the WMS URL to get feature information. The values are as follows: service=WMS version=1.1.1 request=GetFeatureInfo

#### readonlycredit : Credit
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 361

  Gets the credit to display when this imagery provider is active. Typically this is used to credit the source of the imagery. This function should not be called before `WebMapServiceImageryProvider#ready` returns true.

#### enablePickFeatures : Boolean
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 393

  Gets or sets a value indicating whether feature picking is enabled. If true, `WebMapServiceImageryProvider#pickFeatures` will invoke the `GetFeatureInfo` service on the WMS server and attempt to interpret the features included in the response. If false, `WebMapServiceImageryProvider#pickFeatures` will immediately return undefined (indicating no pickable features) without communicating with the server. Set this property to false if you know your data source does not support picking features or if you don't want this provider's features to be pickable.
  Default Value: `true`

#### readonlyerrorEvent : Event
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 324

  Gets an event that is raised when the imagery provider encounters an asynchronous error. By subscribing to the event, you will be notified of the error and can potentially recover from it. Event listeners are passed an instance of `TileProviderError`.

#### readonlyhasAlphaChannel : Boolean
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 377

  Gets a value indicating whether or not the images provided by this imagery provider include an alpha channel. If this property is false, an alpha channel, if present, will be ignored. If this property is true, any images without an alpha channel will be treated as if their alpha is 1.0 everywhere. When this property is false, memory usage and texture upload time are reduced.

#### readonlylayers : String
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 217

  Gets the names of the WMS layers, separated by commas.

#### readonlymaximumLevel : Number
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 256

  Gets the maximum level-of-detail that can be requested. This function should not be called before `WebMapServiceImageryProvider#ready` returns true.

#### readonlyminimumLevel : Number
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 269

  Gets the minimum level-of-detail that can be requested. This function should not be called before `WebMapServiceImageryProvider#ready` returns true.

#### readonlyproxy : Proxy
Scene/WebMapServiceImageryProvider.js 205

  Gets the proxy used by this provider.

#### readonlyready : Boolean
