The OneAtlas Basemap streaming services follows rigorously the standards of the protocols it is compatible with. Consequently, the integration of our endpoints in the GIS tools is straightforward.
Prerequisites: If you haven’t already, see our Authentication Guide for information on how to acquire your Basemap API Key to access the OneAtlas Basemap endpoints. Be aware that the credentials provided with your Basemap API key are enough to access the basemap through GIS Tools.
Below is summarized the GIS tools compatibility with the protocols available in OneAtlas Basemap.

QGIS
You can easily access to the OneAtlas data imagery with OSGeo's QGIS Desktop application. QGIS is an Open Source Geographic Information System (GIS) licensed under the GNU General Public License. QGIS currently can act as a WMS and WMTS client.
Prerequisites
If your network is protected by a proxy you first need to enter the relevant settings. From the “Settings” menu, click on “Options” and then on “Network” to set the proxy settings.
WMS/WMTS Streaming in QGIS
The procedure to follow is documented directly on the QGIS website
In the menu “Layer” / “Add Layer” / “Add WMS/WMTS Layer…” / “New”, you will need to provide:
- WMTS or WMS endpoint (see Manage Subscriptions).
- Credentials (username and password) authorized to display the basemap (see Authenticate Guide).
The resulting dialog box filled out for WMS basemap streaming should look like:
The resulting dialog box filled out for WMTS basemap streaming should look like:
If you have entered the correct details, this should be the result in QGIS:
WFS Access in QGIS
In the menu select “Layer” / “Add Layer” / “Add WFS Layer…” / “New” you will need to provide:
- The WFS endpoint (see the Manage Subscriptions guide)
- Credentials authorized to display the basemap (see Authenticate Guide)
The resulting dialog box filled out for WFS metadata should look like:
Select the layer you just entered in the list of available layers and click on “Connect”.
Once you successfully connected to the endpoint the list of available layers is displayed. Select the layer you want to access and finally, click on “Add” to display the layer into the map and click on “Close” once it is loaded.
The following window will be displayed during the loading of the features (metadata tiles). Then all the footprints of the basemap images will be displayed on the map, and the attribute table provides all the metadata:
Note: Due to an issue with QGIS you need to select “Open Attribute Table” on the WFS layer to make all the WFS entities to load in QGIS. Moreover, there are a very large number of entities in the WFS and the loading time can take several minutes.
