 +==== WMTS servers ====
 +
 +To access WMTS servers, you need to manually configure each levels:
 +
 +<code xml>
 +  <source id="ID5">
 +    <name>WMTS Map Example</name>
 +    
 +    <level type="rest">
 +      <zoom-values>8</zoom-values>
 +      <projection-code>EPSG:4218</projection-code>
 +      <projection-resolution>2.645833333</projection-resolution>
 +      <projection-offset-x>-450000.0</projection-offset-x><!-- optional, default is 0 -->
 +      <projection-offset-y>-800000.0</projection-offset-y><!-- optional, default is 0 -->
 +      <tiles-size>256</tiles-size><!-- optional, default is 256 -->
 +      <tiles-bounds>104,80,527,423</tiles-bounds><!-- optional -->
 +      <referer>http://server.example.com/wmts/</referer><!-- optional, default is empty -->
 +      <server>http://server.example.com/wmts/{$z}/{$y}/{$x}.png</server>
 +    </level>
 +    
 +    <level type="rest">
 +      <zoom-values>9</zoom-values>
 +      <projection-code>EPSG:4218</projection-code>
 +      <projection-resolution>1.322916667</projection-resolution>
 +      <projection-offset-x>-450000.0</projection-offset-x><!-- optional, default is 0 -->
 +      <projection-offset-y>-800000.0</projection-offset-y><!-- optional, default is 0 -->
 +      <tiles-size>256</tiles-size><!-- optional, default is 256 -->

 +      <server>http://server.example.com/wmts/{$z}/{$y}/{$x}.png</server>
 +    </level>
 +    
 +  </source>
 +</code>
 +
 +To get the ''**<projection-resolution>**'' from a ''**ScaleDenominator**'', just multiply this value by ''**0.00028**'' (which is the "standardized rendering pixel size", in meter).
 +
 +
 +==== Mixed servers ====
 +
 +You can also create maps that use different services based on the zoom levels:

 +<code xml>
