OGC Web Coverage Service (WCS) is a dynamic image service that follows the specifications of OGC.

Referenced by: baseMapLayer, operationalLayers

Properties

PropertyDetails
bandIds[]The band selection for a multispectral dataset
blendModeBlend modes are used to create various effects by blending colors of top and background layers. normal blend mode is the default.
Valid values: average, color, color-burn, color-dodge, darken, destination-atop, destination-in, destination-out, destination-over, difference, exclusion, hard-light, hue, invert, lighten, lighter, luminosity, minus, multiply, normal, overlay, plus, reflect, saturation, screen, soft-light, source-atop, source-in, source-out, vivid-light, xor
charts[]An array of chart objects representing charts associated with the layer.
customParametersA sequence of custom parameters appended to the URL of all requests related to a layer.
disablePopupIndicates whether to allow a client to ignore popups defined by the service item.
effectEffect provides various filter functions to achieve different visual effects similar to how image filters (photo apps) work.
idA unique identifying string for the layer.
interpolationString indicating the interpolation type.
Valid values:
  • RSP_BilinearInterpolation
  • RSP_CubicConvolution
  • RSP_Majority
  • RSP_NearestNeighbor
isReferenceApplicable if used as a baseMapLayer. A boolean value indicating whether or not the baseMapLayer draws on top (true) of other layers, including operationalLayers , or below (false).
itemIdUnique string value indicating an item registered in ArcGIS Online or your organization’s portal.
layerDefinitionAn object that defines the drawing information for image service based layers.
See layerDefinition properties table.
layerTypeString indicating the layer type.
Valid value of this property WCS
maxScaleA number representing the maximum scale at which the layer will be visible. The number is the scale’s denominator. Smaller number
minScaleA number representing the minimum scale at which the layer will be visible. The number is the scale’s denominator. Bigger number
multidimensionalDefinition[]An array of objects representing a slice from multidimensional data. The dimensional definitions in this array are used to filter display data based on slices in one or more dimensions.
multidimensionalSubsetAn object representing a subset from multidimensional data. This includes subsets of both variables and dimensions.
opacityThe degree of transparency applied to the layer on the client side, where 0 is full transparency and 1 is no transparency.
popupInfoA popupInfo object defining the content of popup windows when you click or query a pixel.
refreshIntervalRefresh interval of the layer in minutes. Non-zero value indicates automatic layer refresh at the specified interval. Value of 0 indicates auto refresh is not enabled.
showLegendBoolean value indicating whether to display the layer in the legend. Default value is ‘true’.
timeAnimationThis property is applicable to layers that support time. If ‘true’, timeAnimation is enabled.
titleA user-friendly string title for the layer that can be used in a table of contents.
urlThe URL to the WCS service.
visibilityBoolean property determining whether the layer is initially visible in the web map.
visibilityTimeExtentRepresents time extent that will control when a layer should be visible based on webmap’s current time. Visibility time extent only affects the layer visibility and will not filter the data.
wcsInfoObject that defines and provides information about coverages in a WCS service.
