A default WMS server is offered pointing to Frida WMS (frida.intevation.org). So far, I found no other WMS server that works as well, but that is most likely due to the very coarse implementation of mine. You will need PyOGCLib 0.1.0 to run this, see the file Extensions/wms/wms.py for details. However, this demonstrates how you can add special layer types to Thuban as an Extension.

I can only see the possibility of creating color ranges, not size ranges. If this possibility does not exist, do you think it would be hard to implement ? I can't see it on the roadmap, so it doesn"t seem a priority.

Well, an easy way would be to add a new property to ClassGroupProperties instances for the size and to extend the renderer and the GUI accordingly. To round it off, one would need to extend the file format to handle the sizes too. It shouldn't take more than a few hours to get an initial version (depending on the familiarity with Thuban's internals). Getting it right would take longer, of course. > I can't see it on the roadmap, so it doesn"t seem a priority. I'd say it's part of the "Symbols/Fill Patterns" entry for Thuban >1.2. At least that's where it seems to fit best in the current road map. My impression is that the road map beyond 1.0 is very tentative still. It depends on what the Thuban users need and on the functionality we need for our projects at Intevation. It may well be that more flexible classifications will be implemented at an earlier point than the current road map says.

The polygons will even be added to the shapefile. The tool is experimental, incomplete and probably buggy, so you may loose data or end up with corrupted shape- or dbf-files. So if you try it, be careful and don't use important data. Bernhard -- Intevation GmbH http://intevation.de/ Sketch http://sketch.sourceforge.net/ Thuban http://thuban.intevation.org/
