5387	lack of reprojection and  server configuration difficulties (WAS: Wallonie WMS server and JOSM : compatibility and features)	A_Pirard	A_Pirard	"
This is a great world, to live in & draw, but it had better stay flat as they thought it was ;-)

http://cartographie.wallonie.be     hosts very nice WMS servers.[[BR]]
http://cartopro1.wallonie.be/WMS/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/PPNC? [[BR]]
and maybe better yet according to GetCapabilities:[[BR]]
http://cartopro1.wallonie.be/WMS/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/portail?version1.1.1& [[BR]]
And ... <Fees>none</Fees>  <AccessConstraints>none</AccessConstraints> !!!

Merkaartor uses the following requests and displays nice photographs: [[BR]]
http://cartopro1.wallonie.be/WMS/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/PPNC?version1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1 [[BR]]
&REQUEST=GetMap&TRANSPARENT=TRUE& [[BR]]
LAYERS=ppnc1,ppnc2,ppnc3,ppnc4,ppnc5,ppnc6,ppnc7 [[BR]]
&SRS=EPSG:31370&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png [[BR]]
&WIDTH=673&HEIGHT=771&BBOX=... (in southern Belgium)

Hence, I tried the following URLs with JOSM 3376 (with portail and PPNC): [[BR]]
http://cartopro1.wallonie.be/WMS/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/portail?&VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS [[BR]]
&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=ppnc1,ppnc2,ppnc3,ppnc4,ppnc5,ppnc6,ppnc7 [[BR]]
&SRS=EPSG:31370&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&

These requests execute without errors, but the map layer is all painted in black or white depending on the presence or absence of &TRANSPARENT=TRUE.

Have I missed some nice to reveal parameter or does JOSM need a fix or improvement?

There is a description of other elements like rivers & buildings in /portail?GetCapabilities [[BR]]
How can they be displayed??

As the map is dragged up and down, Merkaartor produce a severe, growing mismatch (offset) between OSM and Wallonie WMS data.
Is it because EPSG:31370 is used for the WMS layer?[[BR]]
Is it avoidable with Merkaartor?[[BR]]
Can JOSM be free from that defect?[[BR]]
Wallonie WMS GetCapabilities seems to announce EPSG:4326 capability, but it does not seem to work in a request.[[BR]]
Is it a bug in the server or what else is going on.

The day will be great when, like Merkaartor, JOSM will display the server capabilities to choose from instead of requiring to write an URL !!!

It's wonderful to think that the whole world is writing the map of the whole world and that the terrae incognitae like France will be discovered one day.

Feel free to ask any detail or data.

Keep the marvelous work !!!  <thanks1, thanks2, thanks3, thanks1> !!!

André.
