3. Use Case 1 - Show WMS map based on pre-packaged portrayal description Aust_GeologicUnit_2.5M France_GeologicUnit_5M Step 1: User populates a list of GeoSciML WMS services using the Map Layers tab in IMF client Aust_GeologicUnit_1M IMF client queries registry (CSW) to discover available WMS services and the user dynamically builds Map Layers list. Alternately the available services could be cached daily or at start of session, or fallback position is just to hard code the list of Testbed3 services. WMS layers are scale- dependent. eg, Aust 2.5 million scale WMS layer displayed in global view; Aust 1.0 million scale WMS layer displayed only when zoomed in to at least 1.0 million scale. Naming convention for service layers needs to be defined, e.g. Australia_GeologicUnit_1M France_Faults_250K Aust_Coastline Topography 1. Symbolise map 2. Simple WFS query 3a. GeologicUnit query3c.

7. Japan_GeologicUnit_250K France_GeologicUnit_5M Step 1: User selects WFS service and provides bounding box to query Use Case 2a – Serialisation of GeologicUnits 3. User defines a bounding query box in client application. Client selects features which intersect bounding box. 1. User uses the “Map Layers” tab to display one or more WMS services as a background map using a default colour scheme (or SLD colour scheme from Use Case 1?). This gives the user a graphic spatial reference to enable drawing a bounding box for the WFS query.
