Get WFS available layer information

Usage

emodnet_get_layer_info(wfs, layers)

emodnet_get_wfs_info(wfs = NULL, service = NULL, service_version = NULL)

emodnet_get_all_wfs_info()

Arguments

wfs: A WFSClient R6 object with methods for interfacing an OGC Web Feature Service.
layers: a character vector of layer names. To get info on layers, including layer_name use emodnet_get_wfs_info().
service: the EMODnet OGC WFS service name. For available services, see emodnet_wfs().
service_version: the WFS service version. Now always "2.0.0".

Value

a tibble containing metadata on each layer available from the service.

Details

To minimize the number of requests sent to webservices, these functions use memoise to cache results inside the active R session. To clear the cache, re-start R or run memoise::forget(emodnet_get_wfs_info)/ memoise::forget(emodnet_get_layer_info).

Functions

emodnet_get_layer_info(): Get metadata for specific layers. Requires a wfs object as input.
emodnet_get_wfs_info(): Get info on all layers from an EMODnet WFS service.
emodnet_get_all_wfs_info(): Get metadata on all layers and all available services from server.
