CubeWerx, a leading provider of spatial data warehousing and web service products based on a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) today announces the release of a WMS Connector to Google Maps service. This software product is an OGC WMS wrapper to the Google Maps service and implements the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) WMS specifications.

Good news for those itching to use WMS with Google Maps. The preference would be for Google to do this themselves, but given the lack of understanding of OGC by Google, it could take some time. I suspect in the end though, most Google Maps hackers won’t care too much since they too have no concept of WMS or OGC. Those that do though have to be excited.
