I have built my tile server on AWS EC2 instance(using this as reference) and want to use this map on AWS EC2 instance as a base map in QGIS(click 'layer' > 'add layer' > 'Add WMS/WMTS layer' to add map). When I try to add my EC2 instance url as a WMS URL on QGIS, I get an error saying
Do I need to convert my AWS url to a WMS URL? Are there any tutorial on how to do this? asked 15 Mar '19, 20:30  vishy91 |
One Answer:
WMS and WTMS servers are far more complicated services than a regular google/OSM format tile server. To add a "normal" tileserver one to QGis see the article here https://www.spatialbias.com/2018/02/qgis-3.0-xyz-tile-layers/ (for whatever reason the settings for this are rather well hidden). answered 20 Mar '19, 08:00  SimonPoole ♦ |
Sounds like you did set up a TMS, not a WMS. So try using it as a TMS instead.
@Scai yes. but I'm not able to add the TMS url to QGIS
Does the URL work in your browser?
@Scai - yes. the URL works in my browser and I can see the map with zoom levels from 0-18. I have this configured using Leaflet for front end.
