Carola, Well, most folks are working with simple 8bit images where scaling is not required. > So sorry fot the questions. > Do you plan to implement a colormap for ascii grids like the clr for binary > grids? I wasn't planning to do so, but it looks like it wouldn't be too hard. Note that ASCII grids are a terrible format to run mapserver from due to the amount of processing required when reading it. > What would you suggest to display the negative values? If you want detailed control of the colors then create a series of classes. If a greyscale is fine then just use automatic or explicit scaling values.
