The example has been made with FME version 2019.2.
The example file is called HamtaHoyddatMedWCSLasare.fmw.
Load height data and print as GeoTIFF
Note that the service only allows withdrawals of max 5120 pixels (m) per call.
To read elevation data from the service and print it as a GeoTIFF:
- Start FME Workbench and add a WCS reader.
- Click the Parameters button and enter your connection parameters, see example in the image below:
- Add max and min coordinates as" Published Parameters "in the Navigator window of the FME Workbench. can be done by clicking on the parameter "Search Envelope" under your WCS reader in the Navigator window and then right-clicking on the coordinate parameters (Minimum X etc.) and selecting "Create user parameter":
