WMS
WMS rendered-image responses were observed on 2026-09-30. Current WMS access conditions depend on your offer and require confirmation with NIMBO.
Main WMS Url
Section titled “Main WMS Url”https://prod-data.nimbo.earth/mapcache/wms?kermap_token=<YOUR_TOKEN>The checked service advertises WMS 1.1.1. Use the VERSION query parameter
to select the protocol version. The legacy /mapcache/wms/1.0.0 path also
answered capabilities requests; the path suffix is not the advertised WMS version.
WMS GetCapabilities Url
Section titled “WMS GetCapabilities Url”https://prod-data.nimbo.earth/mapcache/wms?SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities&VERSION=1.1.1&kermap_token=<YOUR_TOKEN>Use the returned layer names in LAYERS. A request for capabilities version
1.3.0 negotiated back to 1.1.1 in the 2026-09-30 audit.
GetMap
Section titled “GetMap”https://prod-data.nimbo.earth/mapcache/wms?SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.1.1&LAYERS=2026_8_1&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:3857&BBOX=254382.430133067,6242153.477880634,264166.369753569,6251937.417501137&WIDTH=256&HEIGHT=256&FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&kermap_token=<YOUR_TOKEN>| Parameter | Meaning |
|---|---|
LAYERS | Complete layer identifier from capabilities |
SRS | The tested coordinate system is EPSG:3857 |
BBOX | minX,minY,maxX,maxY in that coordinate system |
WIDTH, HEIGHT | Requested image dimensions in pixels |
FORMAT | Use image/png for the verified path |
kermap_token | Your API token |
The sampled RGB, NIR, NDVI, HD and Traceability GetMap images matched the equivalent TMS and WMTS tiles pixel-for-pixel.
Formats and data values
Section titled “Formats and data values”Capabilities advertises PNG and JPEG, but the tested image/jpeg request
returned a PNG image. Inspect the actual response format.
The tested NDVI GetFeatureInfo request returned HTTP 404. The map service
delivers rendered imagery; it does not establish access to raw NDVI values
or downloadable source rasters.
The map NDVI is a colorized render calculated from the monthly synthesis. Numerical NDVI values are not directly accessible from that render. Calculating NDVI from the synthesis is distinct from averaging per-acquisition NDVI values. The 8-bit colors do not define a 0–255 to NDVI conversion.
Numerical NDVI delivery and the NDVI statistics API are separate from the colorized map service. Their availability and access conditions have not been confirmed.
TMS and WMTS provide access to map tiles. Tile access does not authorize bulk downloading or redistribution. File delivery, including GeoTIFF/COG availability, requires confirmation for the requested product and area.
See the Data Catalog for release observations and the TMS guide for no-data and error handling.
