Re: [mapserver-users] Re: Dynamic data loading using Google maps andMapserver
Hi All, I am trying to integrate the census tracts on the google maps base. I am using the tile mode and have successfully drawn the shape files over the states of USA. I have some data in an access database that I need to show to the user when he selects a particular census tract (the shapes are polygons). However, since its a tile mode that I am using on google maps, I am unable to understand how do I get the information from mapserver as to which census tract was selected by the user? Is there a way mapserver can send me the polygon selected based on a co-ordinate lying inside the polygon? I know there is a way by using queries and a querymap for doing this. The query that I am using is as follows http://127.0.0.1:8123/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:/ms4w/apps/census/testMap.mapmode=querymapxy=38.87795 -77.098617 I am providing a template in my map file that has the tract variables. However, the result is always the same msQueryByPoint(): Search returned no results. No matching record(s) found. Is it that mapserver is trying to look for a point feature in the location specifies by mapxy in the link above? How do I make mapserver to look for a polygon enclosing this co-ordinate and return me the result? I am attaching my mapfile also for reference.

You have to create a query using the coordinate from Google to access MapServer. My example uses the principle to query points but would work for polygons (which are actually easier). You could issue straight MapServer queries: http://.../cgi-bin/mapserv?mode=querymap=something.mapmapxy=google_x+google_yqlayer=the_polygons or do a WFS query. Since you're already using straight MapServer the former would probably be easiest. Steve Varun saraf vsaraf@gmail.com 05/02/09 1:34 PM Hi, Thanks a lot Jim and Steve. These are great examples but I am dividing each state of USA into about 1300 polygons and I need a way to find which polygon is selected by the user. I tried building Gpolygons using the polygon data that i have (after converting it into a GML file) but it makes Google damn slow to redraw the polygons on zoom in and zoom out. The tile mode in mapserver is much faster. Now, After I draw the polygon in tile mode using mapserver, Is there a way Mapserver can return to me the specific polygon info (say co-ordinates or any other data in the dbf file relating to that polygon) when I select it on google map? Goggle I believe can give me the exact co-ordinates of the point I clicked. Can mapserver use this point location to find which polygon was selected? Thanks, Varun 2009/5/2 Jim Strevinas voas_...@hotmail.com: A beautiful example that uses the Google Maps API is: http://www.dyasdesigns.com/geoxml/gmlusa.htm It makes use of an API plugin called geoxml that can load XML data which can be produced by a WFS server.

[mapserver-users] Label alignment (not as desired) . . .
All, Ok, let's try this again, I redid the link. . . . should work now for everyone. I'm playing around with generating a map collar image by labeling some lines with MapServer. I get the labels looking about what I would like them to look like, but the alignment vertically ( and this applies to horizontal alignment as well ) is not playing nice. See this link: http://gis.ci.stpaul.mn.us/datasets/SHP/FED/USGS/USNG/mn_usng_lines_labels_2_public.map?mapext=503179.6728349806%20111379.8994326578%20508281.0020239575%20135621.41573867595mapsize=70%20600mode=mapMOOSETIME=1241653121858 ( http://gis.ci.stpaul.mn.us/datasets/SHP/FED/USGS/USNG/mn_usng_lines_labels_2_public.map?mapext=503179.6728349806%20111379.8994326578%20508281.0020239575%20135621.41573867595mapsize=70%20600mode=mapMOOSETIME=1241653121858 ) I'm thinking that the labels are moving back and forth horizontally because of the underlying line work, It's not strictly horizontal but curved slightly, and there may or may not be a vertice visible within a view. (Can a vertice be marked somehow?) So I think MapServer is using the longest straight segment within the view to center on for labeling. Question, how do I get these to line up vertically (and horizontally)? I know there was some recent justification work going on, but didn't follow it in detail.

Re: [mapserver-users] MapServer Dont Draw
dl() its allow in the php.ini the extension=php_mapscript.so load ok I'd have to disagree. If you call dl() you're told that you're not allowed to use dl() That means that dl() is not allowed in the php.ini If you leave it out, mapscript is obviously not loaded via an extension= line in php.ini since ms_newMapObj() is undefined. And at any rate you don't want to do both. So let's start over: Do you have command-line access? What happens if you run this command? echo '?php dl(php_mapscript.so); print Hello ?'| php If you get Module 'MapScript' already loaded then MapScript really is loading via php.ini In that case, remove the dl() line since it's useless to load an already-loaded module. If not, then php_mapscript.so is definitely NOT being loaded via php.ini and you WILL want to use dl() In this case, double check your php.ini for the enable_dl keyword, and restart Apache if you haven't done so already. -- HostGIS, Open Source solutions for the global GIS community Greg Allensworth - SysAdmin, Programmer, GIS Person, Security Network+ Server+ A+ Security+ ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
[mapserver-users] Speed of PostGIS vs Shapefiles in MapServer 5.4
G'day all, I see a rewrite of PostGIS handling was a major achievement in the 5.4 Release. I have a number of polygon layers that I use on a fairly static basis (political boundaries etc) but I vaccilate between using them from: PostGIS (for convenience - I use them for analysis as well so they are in the database anyway, easy to backup and keep consistent between servers) or from Shapefiles (exported because they were faster to render). Most of them are not overly complex or large, is there still significant benefit to using them from shapefiles, or is it becoming a more closely run race between sources. cheers Ben -- Ben Madin REMOTE INFORMATION t : +61 8 9192 5455 f : +61 8 9192 5535 m : 0448 887 220 Broome WA 6725 b...@remoteinformation.com.au Out here, it pays to know... ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
Re: [mapserver-users] Speed of PostGIS vs Shapefiles in MapServer 5.4
The PostGIS rewrite was more about maintainability than speed. In fact, the new code is a touch slower although probably not significantly so. If you're really trying to crank as much performance out as possible then in many cases shapefiles will win. Convenience should not be overlooked though so why bother with multiple versions of the same data if you can live with a few milleseconds slower.
