WMTS Capabilities (OGC Web Map Tile Service)
Open BetaWMTS (Web Map Tile Service) is a 2010 OGC standard for publishing pre-cut raster tiles through a web service with a formal Capabilities document and predictable TileMatrixSets. It underpins government geo-portals and the EU INSPIRE infrastructure. On osm2cdr.ru the export generates a valid 1.0.0 GetCapabilities XML for the chosen area: a layer description, image/png format, the GoogleMapsCompatible TileMatrixSet (EPSG:3857) with zoom levels sized to the bbox, and WGS84 bounds. This is precisely a descriptive document — the metadata of a WMTS endpoint, not a pyramid of ready tiles; the rasters themselves can be produced with a separate tile export.

Sobre o formato WMTS
WMTS is the OGC standard for publishing pre-cut tiles through a web service. What sets it apart from the plain XYZ scheme is formality: the service has a Capabilities document describing the layers, formats, projections and the exact tile grid. Government geoportals and the INSPIRE infrastructure are built on it.
The export is for developers and integrators: to check how a client reads Capabilities, to prepare a description of a future service, to agree the layer structure with a customer before a real server is up.
The output is a single XML — a valid GetCapabilities document of version 1.0.0 for the selected area: the layer description, the image/png format, the GoogleMapsCompatible grid in the EPSG:3857 projection with zoom levels matched to the size of the area, bounds in WGS84 and sections with the service metadata.
This is a description, not the tiles themselves. Rasters are exported separately — as XYZ tiles, MBTiles or PMTiles — and in the document the placeholder addresses have to be replaced with real ones before publishing.

Como exportar para WMTS
Como abrir depois da exportação
- QGIS — Layer → Add WMS/WMTS Layer, create a connection and point it at the document; QGIS will show the layer and the available grid levels.
- OpenLayers — the optionsFromCapabilities method parses this XML and assembles a WMTS source with no manual parameter setup.
- Editing before publishing — put the real service address into the operations and into the tile links: the export leaves a template there.
- GeoServer or MapProxy — if you need a real service, bring one up and compare your document with what the server returns.
- Validation — run the XML against the OGC schema (with the OGC validator or any XML editor with schemas) before handing it to the customer.
