<strong>Global</strong> <strong>Mapper</strong> User's Manual<br />

RESTful services supports accessing via the zoom scale (%z) and a latitude and longitude value in the tile.<br />

Use %lat and %lon to include the latitude and longitude of the center point of the tile in your custom URL.<br />

You also must select whether the source uses PNG or JPG image files and provide the maximum zoom level<br />

and bounds of the data source.<br />

You can also use the Delete Cached Files button to remove any locally cached files from any particular type<br />

of data sources. This is useful if the online data may have changed or if you have downloaded corrupt files<br />

somehow.<br />

The Add Sources From File button allows you to add new WMS sources from an external text file. This<br />

provides an easy way to share your list of WMS sources with other users. You can simply provide them with<br />

your wms_user_sources.txt file from your Application Data folder (see the Help->About dialog for the<br />

location of this folder) and they can load that file with this button to add their sources to your source list.<br />

The Load ECW from Web button allows the user to open an ER <strong>Mapper</strong> Compressed Wavelet (ECW) image<br />

file directly from an Image Web Server URL using the ECWP protocol. While these files may be terabytes in<br />

actual size, only the portion needed for the current display window is downloaded, allowing for the browsing<br />

of extremely large data sets.<br />

Selecting the Load ECW from Web displays the Load Image From Web dialog (pictured below). This dialog<br />

allows the user to either select a predefined web link for loading or to enter the URL of any available ECW<br />

file served by Image Web Server.<br />
