I am trying to add sources to my onlinemapsources.xml and am running into difficulty finding the correct information.  Specifically, the correct URL.



Can someone provide an example on how they find the correct information for updating the onlinemapsources.xml?



For instance, I would like to view this map in Orux, if possible.  http://mrdata.usgs.gov/geology/state/map.html">//http://mrdata.usgs.gov/geology/state/map.html



Thanks!

Hi,



You must use the WMS service for this maps.

You can find a list of WMS services for this maps at http://mrdata.usgs.gov/wms.html">//http://mrdata.usgs.gov/wms.html, there are several diferent services, choose the one you want and you will get the url for this map.

Note that you must use the url untill the "?" sign, the get capabilities sentence is managed by Oruxmaps.



Hope it will help,
