Namespace

The WFS namespace property is used to discriminate XML vocabularies from one another. This property is automatically populated by ArcGIS Server but can be modified.

Prefix

The WFS namespace prefix is a unique property that is used in the response of a WFS GetFeatureRequest. This property is automatically populated by ArcGIS Server and can be modified.

There are some reserved keywords that cannot be used as a prefix as they conflict with other namespaces that are defined in the WFS service. The reserved keywords that should not be used as a prefix include: wfs, ogc, fes, gml, ows, xs, xsi, gml32, xlink, xsi, or schemaLocation.

Path or URL to stored query file

A stored query file is an XML file that maintains a list of publisher-authored stored queries relevant to a particular service. Place the stored query file in a folder accessible to the web. Then, specify the location of the file in ArcGIS Server Manager or ArcGIS Desktop. For full instructions, see Configuring a WFS service to use stored queries.

Enable Transactions

The Enable Transactions check box is used to allow edits to be applied through WFS-T. See Web editing with WFS services for more information.

Enable feature locking

When a WFS client connects to a WFS service that has been published with transactions enabled, the edited features and rows can be locked on the server by selecting the Enable feature locking property. See Web editing with WFS services for more information.

Enable maximum number of features

This property allows you limit how many features can be returned by the server to a WFS client for any given query operation. When this option is unchecked, all features are returned.

Maximum number of features

When the Enable maximum number of features property is checked, you can use this property to specify the maximum number of features to be returned. By default, the value is set to 1000.

Keep in mind that specifying a large number of features to be returned by the server can slow the performance of client applications and your GIS server.

Force axis order for WFS 1.0.0, 1.1.0, 2.0.0

Features returned in some geographic coordinate systems (for example, WGS 84) have an axis order of latitude, longitude (y,x) by default. This is in compliance with the WFS 1.0.0, 1.1.0, and 2.0.0 specifications.

Some WFS clients expect the coordinates to be returned with an axis order of longitude, latitude (x,y). To work with these clients, you can use this property to change the axis order for the WFS service to be longitude, latitude.

Swap axis order

Features returned in some geographic coordinate systems (for example, WGS 84) have an axis order of latitude, longitude (y,x) by default. This is in compliance with the WFS 1.0.0, 1.1.0, and 2.0.0 specifications.

Some WFS clients expect the coordinates to be returned with an axis order of x,y. To work with these clients, you can swap the axis order for the WFS service by selecting the Swap option in the drop-down. By default, the axis order will not be swapped.
