Import Directly to The Catalog¶

Earlier we learned how to work with content from the Catalog view, in this section we will import content directly into the catalog.

• On the Catalog view please press the Import button:

  

• Select Other ‣ Data and press Next.

  

• Choose Web Map Server from the list and press Next.

  

• This time we are going to import an OpenGeo demo Web Map Server using the following Capabilities document:

  http://demo.opengeo.org/geoserver/ows?service=wms&version=1.1.1&request=GetCapabilities

  

• Press Finish to import the Web Map Server into the Catalog view.

• Now that we have imported the WMS into the catalog we can add it to our Map.

• Drag and Drop the bluemarble layer directly onto Map editor.

  

• Earlier we used the the layer view to reorder using the up and down buttons, this time we will drag the layers into the right order.

• Select the Blue Marble layer in the layer view and drag it to the bottom of the list.
