eAtlas Web Mapping Service (WMS) - Legacy MTSRF Server (AIMS)
The eAtlas delivers its mapping products via two Web Mapping Services, a legacy server (from 2008-2011) and a newer primary server (2011+) to which all new content it added. This record describes the legacy WMS. This service was decommissioned on in Jan 2024.
This service delivered map layers associated with the eAtlas project ( https://eatlas.org.au ), and contained map layers of environmental research focusing on the Great Barrier Reef. The majority of the layers corresponding to Glenn De'ath's interpolated maps of the GBR developed under the MTSRF program (2008-2010).
This web map service was predominantly maintained for the no decommissioned legacy eAtlas map viewer ( https://maps.eatlas.org.au/geoserver/www/map.html ).
This WMS service was implemented using GeoServer version 1.7 software hosted on a server at the Australian Institute of Marine Science.
Note: this service had around 460 layers of which approximately half the layers correspond to Standard Error maps, which were WRONG (please ignore all *Std_Error layers).
This services was operated by the Australian Institute of Marine Science and co-funded by the MTSRF program.
More details about this service is described on the eAtlas Legacy System webpage https://eatlas.org.au/content/legacy-mapping-system
