Hello all,
I would like to insert a modern basemap on a running mapserver project.
Currently I set a mapfile including about 15 layers and a raster tif file
representing the hillshade of the study area, as basemap.
My aim is to substitute the running base map with something more dynamic as
well as with higher resolution and at the same time not heavy to slow down
the service. These basemap aspects are new for me, I found documentation
but not so clear for me, I need something easy. What can you suggest me? Is
it an hard stuff? or can I handle it? I think I could have at least 2
possibilities: to insert a WMS global layer, (and in case can you suggest
me a nice service?), or set up something like tiles service (like OSM), in
case how??
Thank you in advance,
Eugenio,
Did you try the basemaps project?
https://github.com/mapserver/basemaps/
Doc is here:
https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Rendering-OSM-data-on-Ubuntu-12.04
The equivalent page for Windows users is:
https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/RenderingOsmDataWindows
Note that if you choose to go down this path with Basemaps, please feel
free to edit these wiki pages with your updates, notes, changes. Thanks,
-jeff
