WMS METADATA IN MAPFILE

From mapserver docs

At the MAP level:

    * Map NAME
    * Map PROJECTION
    * Map Metadata (in the WEB Object):
          o wms_title
          o wms_onlineresource
          o wms_srs (unless PROJECTION object is defined using “init=epsg:...”)

And for each LAYER:

    * Layer NAME
    * Layer PROJECTION
    * Layer METADATA
          o wms_title
          o wms_srs (optional since the layers inherit the map’s SRS value)
    * Layer STATUS
          o Layers set to STATUS DEFAULT will always be sent to the client.
          o Layers set to STATUS ON or STATUS OFF can be requested by the client.
    * Layer TEMPLATE (required for GetFeatureInfo requests)
    * Layer DUMP TRUE (only required for GetFeatureInfo GML requests)
