Test requirements

To ensure all of the tests in the test suite produce correct results, WMS implementations must meet the following requirements:

Warning: There are currently slight differences between the schema listed in Annex E.1 and the on-line version Annex E.1 refers to. This test suite uses the on-line version.

Test Dataset Description

The test dataset for the WMS 1.3.0 test suite is the same as the test dataset for the WMS 1.1.1 test suite.

The majority of the dataset is based on the Conformance Test Guidelines for OpenGIS Simple Features Specification for SQL, Revision 1.0 . This set of features makes up a map of a fictional location called Blue Lake. The features are as described in the Simple Features Specification for SQL document, except they have been converted to WGS84 coordinates and have been reoriented so the area is centered at 0 degrees latitude, 0 degrees longitude. Figure 1 shows an overview map of the area with the prominent features labeled. Figure 2 shows the location of each of the data points.

Additional features have also been defined to test data at a larger scale. These consist of a diamond and two overlapping squares, as shown in figure 3. It does not matter which square appears on top.

The features are organized into layers as shown in table below. The layers may be named in any fashion, but must be titled exactly as shown in the table.
