Parcel orthophotos
backgroundByLocation - backgroundByParcelID
It is often handy to have a high resolution overview of the parcel situation. A (globally) useful set are the Google and Bing (or Virtual Earth) background image sets.
This query generates an extract from either Google or Bing. It uses the WMTS standard to grab and compose, which makes it fast (does not depend on DIAS S3 store).
Currently, parameter values can be as follows:
