Problem with a layer of the physics server

[maelle]

@salvafern @bart-v is this a known problem?

The "EMODnet:EP_PLATFORMS_MO_ATLAS" layer seems somehow problematic.

Looks like arguments imply differing number of rows: 1, 0 is an R issue, and not an OGC problem?

[maelle]

but it might be due to this layer being different from the others?

I do wonder whether having a NULL Geometry type is something that is wrong on the server side or on ows4r side. I'll ask there.

If there is no geometry, then there is no layer/map, so I doubt it...

[maelle]

ok, but I do wonder why we didn't run into this before. I'll make a PR with a workaround.
