Deutscher Wetterdienst OGC Web Services (WMS / WFS) is published by [Deutscher Wetterdienst](https://apis.io/providers/deutscher-wetterdienst/) on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Geospatial, OGC, WMS, WFS, and Open Access.

OGC-standard web services served from a GeoServer instance. Verified anonymously on 2026-08-20: a WMS 1.3.0 GetCapabilities document declaring 193 layers and a WFS 2.0.0 GetCapabilities document declaring 61 feature types returned HTTP 200 and is saved here verbatim. These GetCapabilities documents are the machine-readable contract for this surface — there is no OpenAPI for the classic OGC services.
