EFAS

EFAS WMS-T gives access to the EFAS layers in a GIS environment or via a web browser. Is it possible to access the WMS  layers using any WMS client viewer, such as  Quantum GIS (QGIS) or ESRI ArcMap.

The EFAS WMS-T is freely accessible for non authenticated users but those users have access to a limited number of layers and non real-time forecasts (only forecasts older than 30 days). 

EFAS partners users can access real time forecasts and all the available EFAS layers (depending on their access credentials).
