WMS Libraries — Open Data Layers

Overview

Soarvo provides a curated set of WMS (Web Map Service) library bundles — pre-configured collections of open-data base maps and overlays you can add to your projects. These save you from chasing down EPSG codes, layer names, and URLs for common public datasets.

Available Library Bundles

Bundle
Contents
Ordnance Survey 1919 Historical Data

OS Mastermap variations for detailed UK topography.

Available Downloads

Each download is a ZIP containing the configuration files for that WMS / ZXY library bundle. Download, then ask your Soarvo Administrator (or Soarvo support) to load it into your tenant's Background Maps.

Adding a Library to Your Project

Soarvo support can provision these bundles for your tenant on request. Contact Soarvo support and mention which bundle you want added.

Once provisioned, the WMS layers appear in the Background Maps selector inside the Data Viewer. See WMS & Custom Raster Layers for layer-level management.

💡 Tip: Want a WMS source that isn't in our library? You can upload a custom WMS config file via the Background Maps manager. See the linked article for the file format.
