I am a GIS novice attempting to use QGIS (version 3.12.3-București) to link to a UK Environment Agency flood zone dataset using the various data links provided here:
Using the base WFS/WMS URLs provided just returns an error, but following the advice at 'https://support.environment.data.gov.uk/hc/en-gb/articles/360001340657-How-do-i-add-WFS-layers-in-ArcGIS-and-QGIS-' and adding parameters, I do manage to import some partial data using this URL:
The layer data imported isn’t correct (it doesn’t match any watercourses and only covers a small area near Nottingham - see screenshot), but it at least shows that the API link works!
Does anyone have any experience of accessing this specific data using and has made it work correctly with QGIS, or can at least suggest what else I might try?
