To access the Open WMTS Table dialog box, on the HOME tab, click Open, and select Mapping (WMTS).

WMTS Server

Select a WMTS server from the drop-down list.

Server URL

Displays the Internet address of the selected WMTS server.

Servers button

Click this button to display the WFS/WMS/WMTS Servers List Dialog Box where you can view, add, edit, remove WMTS servers, and set the default server.

Details button

Click this button to display the WFS/WMS/WMTS Server Details Dialog Box where you can view information about a WMTS server. The information is read-only. To make changes use the Servers button.

WMTS Layers

Displays the layers available with the selected WMTS server. Select any of the layers for display.

Note: You can select to open only one WMTS layer at a time.

Display

Style

Displays the default style for the highlighted layer.

Note: This information is provided by the web service and may not be well-defined for every layer.

Format

Choose a raster image format from the drop-down list. The choices vary depending on the server. For a list of supported image formats, see Supported Image Formats for WMTS.

Dimensions

Displays the dimension and the value specified for the selected layer. Select the square box beside the dimensions display box to open the Select Dimensions dialog box, where you can specify the dimension value.

Note: Dimensions remains active only for those WMTS layers that supports dimensions. A small circle displays in the WMTS Layers display box besides the layers that support dimensions.

Coordinate Reference System

Tile Set

Displays available tile sets for the selected layer. Select any of the tile set for display.

Projection

Displays the projection for the selected tile set.

Override Coordinate Order

This lets you apply a coordinate order override at the table level instead of at the server level. Select if the map image does not display, or is in the wrong location and distorted, due to the coordinate order.

Table Filename

Specify a filename and location for the TAB file that will be created when you complete this dialog box and request a map. The TAB file is a pointer to an XML file that keeps track of the data you have selected for this map request. To retrieve the map again, open the TAB file like any other TAB file (assumes the server still maintains the data you specified).

Preferred View

MapInfo Pro displays your data in a window based on your selection. MapInfo Pro remembers your selection and uses it for every subsequent selection until you change it.

  • Automatic - MapInfo Pro chooses the most appropriate view. If the data is mappable, such as when graphic objects are attached to the data, MapInfo Pro opens the table in a Map window. If you have a Map window displayed and the table you want to open is mappable, MapInfo Pro automatically opens the table in the current Map window. If the data is not mappable, MapInfo Pro will attempt to open the table in a Browser window. If the table cannot be mapped or browsed, MapInfo Pro opens the table using the No View option (no data is displayed).
  • Browser - MapInfo Pro attempts to open the table in a Browser window.
  • Current Mapper - MapInfo Pro attempts to add your data to the current Map window.
  • New Mapper - MapInfo Pro attempts to open the table in a new Map window.
  • No View - MapInfo Pro opens the table making the data available for other uses, but no data is displayed. You will see it in the Tables list in the Explorer window.
