WMS Server

How could set up a wms sever so that my browser can get the map info I need ? What kind of data scourse can I use,In what format? If I can handle this in IIS how can I transplant it on tomcat??

I'd look at OpenLayers for that.

Google Earth's WMS support

This page suggests Google Earth can act as a WMS client, but I can't see anything about that in Google Earth's help: is it true? —Preceding unsigned comment added by PeterParslow (talk • contribs) 17:01, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I know, you are right, Google Earth does not support WMS. (unless it is WMS encapsulated in the Network-KML standard, thus not direct WMS anymore) I will remove Google Earth from the list of WMS-supporting software. -- Lordsatri (talk) 18:40, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
