Fine tuning your OWS

1030+
Apart from configuring metadata individually for each layer, in QGIS you
1031+
can fine tune your group of WMS layers. This is useful if you want the group to appear
1032+
as a single entity in the WMS GetCapabilities, instead of exposing only its child layers.
1033+
By setting metadata at the group level, you can provide a clearer description of related layers
1034+
and improve the usability of your service.
1035+
To configure metadata for a group of layers:
1036+
1037+
#. In the :guilabel:`Layers` panel, right-click the desired layer group
1038+
and select :guilabel:`Set Group WMS Data`.
1039+
#. In the dialog that opens, fill in the information:
1040+
1041+
* a :guilabel:`Description`: the abstract of the layer group.
1042+
* a :guilabel:`Attribution`: the attribution of the layer group.
1043+
* a :guilabel:`Metadata URL`: the URL of a metadata document for the layer group.
1044+
* a :guilabel:`Legend URL`: the URL of a legend image for the layer group.
1045+
1046+
#. Optionally, you can check |checkbox| :guilabel:`Compute TIME dimension from children`
1047+
to have QGIS Server compute the TIME dimension for the group
1048+
based on the TIME dimensions of its child layers.
1049+
10301050
For vector layers, the :guilabel:`Fields` tab of the :menuselection:`Layer -->
10311051
Layer Properties` dialog allows you to define for each attribute if it will be published or not.
10321052
By default, all the attributes are published by your WMS and WFS.
