Abstract
Documentation:
Request to a WFS to perform the GetCapabilities operation. This operation allows a client to retrieve a Capabilities XML document providing metadata for the specific WFS server. The GetCapapbilities element is used to request that a Web Feature Service generate an XML document describing the organization providing the service, the WFS operations that the service supports, a list of feature types that the service can operate on and list of filtering capabilities that the service support. Such an XML document is called a capabilities document.

          Request to a WFS to perform the GetCapabilities operation.
          This operation allows a client to retrieve a Capabilities
          XML document providing metadata for the specific WFS server.

          The GetCapapbilities element is used to request that a Web Feature
          Service generate an XML document describing the organization
          providing the service, the WFS operations that the service
          supports, a list of feature types that the service can operate
          on and list of filtering capabilities that the service support.
          Such an XML document is called a capabilities document.

                  This attribute indicates the depth to which nested property
                  XLink linking element locator attribute (href) XLinks are
                  traversed and resolved if possible.  A value of "1" indicates
                  that one linking element locator attribute (href) Xlink
                  will be traversed and the referenced element returned if
                  possible, but nested property XLink linking element locator
                  attribute (href) XLinks in the returned element are not
                  traversed.  A value of  "*" indicates that all nested property

                  traversed and the referenced elements returned if possible.
                  The range of valid values for this attribute consists of
                  positive integers plus "*".
