WMS Database Modified
The WMS Database changes on a release-to-release basis, as some new servers are added
and some unavailable servers are removed. A total of 199 servers (10.2% of the original
number of servers) and 66,270 layers have been removed from the database. A total of
602 servers, with 207,269 layers, have been added.
Some notable new servers in the database are:
• The OnMars (http://onmars.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi) and OnMoon (http://
onmoon.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi) servers from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
• The MassGIS server (http://giswebservices.massgis.state.ma.us/
geoserver/wms) from the Massachusetts Office of Geographic and Environmental
Information
• The National Map Seamless servers (http://ims.cr.usgs.gov, http://
imsortho.cr.usgs.gov, and http://imselev.cr.usgs.gov) from the U.S.
Geological Survey
Compatibility Considerations
Some servers are no longer accessible and have been removed from the database. If you
have code based on these servers, it will no longer run. To fix this problem, search the
WMS Database for another comparable server.
Some examples from the R2009b documentation have been modified due to server
inaccessibility. Some notable servers that have been removed are:
•
Several of the servers from CubeWerx

(http://demo.cubewerx.com/dem/

• Two of the servers from the European Space Agency (ESA) (http://
mapdev.eo.esa.int/mapServer/mapServer and http://
mapdev.esrin.esa.int/mapServer/mapServer)
The etopo Function Now Supports the ETOPO1 and ETOPO2v2 Data Sets
Before R2010a, the etopo function supported ETOPO2–2001 (2-minute) and ETOPO5
(5-minute) data. Support has been added for ETOPO2v2c (2-minute) and ETOPO1c
(1-minute) data. The ETOPO1 model, released in March 2009, is the most recent and
