Re: [MapServer-users] How to cascade data from OGC API Features service?

Hi,

MS4W 5.0.0 RC1 contains GDAL version that does not include this enhancement 
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/issues/8522.
It means that my Mapserver was reading OGCFeat only 10 features at a time. That 
gives all too bad impression about the speed of the OGCFeat source. The VRT 
below works also with older GDAL versions, it is reading a thousand times 
bigger pages, it is faster, and it does not bloat our server logs. A hint for 
debuggers: the document 
https://mapserver.org/optimization/debugging.html#table-of-contentseven is not 
totally accurate. Even when MS_ERRORFILE is set, some debug data, including the 
outgoing http requests, go to the Apache error_log.


<OGRVRTDataSource>
    <OGRVRTLayer name="building">
        
<SrcDataSource>OAPIF:https://beta-paikkatieto.maanmittauslaitos.fi/inspire-buildings/features/v1/</SrcDataSource>
        <SrcLayer>building</SrcLayer>
        <OpenOptions>
                <OOI key="PAGE_SIZE">10000</OOI>
      </OpenOptions>
    </OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>

Hi,

Oh yes, it was a typo. As a user who tries to be standard compliant I had 
upgraded the name in one place to match with the OGC approved abbreviation 
“OGCFeat” instead of the GDAL driver name “OAPIF”.

The MAXSCALEDENOM value 60000 (naturally copy-pasted from some old mapfile) is 
all too large for that service in areas with lots of buildings. Scale 1:5000 is 
probably safe everywhere. A EPSG:3067 bbox for testing:
BBOX=390723,6671479,392177,6672231

Positive thing is that now also other Mapserver users know that it is possible 
to use OGCFeat services as source data with OGR connection. Thanks to you and 
TC Haddad who also found the typo.

Are you sure that you don't just have a typo? Your file is named "ogcfeat.vrt" 
but your CONNECTION "c:/ms4w_data/oapif.vrt"

I set up a quick test and I haven't gotten a map (it timed out 504 error after 
several minutes) but I didn't get an error. Maybe you could share a smaller 
test data set and a reasonable bounding box. My test:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=MAP_TEST&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=building&WIDTH=696&HEIGHT=870&CRS=EPSG:3067&BBOX=-359700,6615190,-359500,6615199&FORMAT=png

Hi,

I tried to make a WMS layer from OGC API Features service but I did not 
success. This is my best trial so far:

I am using Mapserver from MS4W 5.0.0 RC1
I wrote this ORG VRT file (ogcfeat.vrt)

<OGRVRTDataSource>
    <OGRVRTLayer name="building">
        
<SrcDataSource>OAPIF:https://beta-paikkatieto.maanmittauslaitos.fi/inspire-buildings/features/v1/</SrcDataSource>
        <SrcLayer>building</SrcLayer>
    </OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>

The GDAL included in MS4W reads the vrt OK with
ogrinfo ogcfeat.vrt -al -so --debug on
(there are 5 millions polygons so hit Ctrl-C if you are just testing)

I wrote a layer that can be at the bottom of this message below.  The WMS 
GetCapabilities show the new layer but GetMaps fail. The log file collects 
these errors

msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'building'.
msOGRFileOpen(): OGR error. Open failed for OGR connection in layer `building'. 
 File not found or unsupported format. Check server logs.
Open failed for OGR connection in layer `building'.

Am I missing something from my configuration? My LAYER is like this

LAYER
        NAME "building"
        STATUS ON
        CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
                          CONNECTION "c:/ms4w_data/oapif.vrt"
