I work in developing a software called i3geo based on Mapserver 
(http://www.softwarepublico.gov.br).

In this software we have several interfaces:

normal

GoogleMaps

GoogleEarth

The data are superimposed by the WMS.

The Google Maps static API doesn't let you pass in a bounding box, it lets 
you pas in a 'center and zoom'. The resulting tile will not always be 
centered exactly on that point such that it can be tiled, based on what 
I understand: Requests are still based around a grid, it's just not one 
that's obvious, iiuc.

That said, I have no idea if this is within the Terms of Use.

It also has other side effects; Google logo on each tile, etc. so it's not
a great solution even if it does work, but would probably be better for 
desktop solutions which have a single view that they want to display
data over, as I understand it.

Hi Steve, and thank you for your answer.

I confirm that the wms getmap works well even if I put the %year% variable
into the layer FILTER.

This isn't strictly true. Desktop clients which are capable of embedding
a browser can use the browser, render a scene, take the resulting image,
and display that to the client. There are a number of clients which
do exactly that in OpenStreetMap editors, for example.

However, this is obviousl significantly more complex than just fetching the
tiles, which is the way most people discuss doing it.

Anything is possible, but that doesn't mean it will be easy.

[mapserver-users] MapServer 5.2.1 performance

[Gorka Lopez]

Hi,

I have a .map file with 120 layers. All this layers contain different
information and this project is prepared to consume all these layers
together. The style of those layers is basic (some annotations and some
tematics)

This layers consumes PostGIS tables (28 tables) which disk spaces are
between 1 MB and 1GB (database total space: 2,5GB). The indexes of these
tables (gist and btrees indexes) and the statistics are created. These
information are in the same coordinate system that in the requested tiles.

I want to improve the performance and I have the following results for a
512x512 tile:

* 27 milliseconds per visible layer (layers that are visible in the map's
scale (40 layers))
* 18 millisecods per non-visible layer (layers that are not visible in the
map' scale (80 layers))

Is there any solution to improve this results (I just use tilechache
metatile property)? I think that 18 milliseconds per non-visible layer is
too much (only for evaluating wether the requested tile is contained in the
layer's min/max scale)

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Gorka López

Re: [mapserver-users] Mapserver consuming Google Maps

[Marco Foi (marco.foi)]

Some time ago a similar issue was raised among UDig users and the conclusion 
was that:
IT IS NOT POSSIBLE to consume Google Maps in Desktop clients.

The reason is simple: Google does NOT ALLOW this to happen. 
Basically each request for a map tile must come from another server having its 
own public IP.
Each request coming from a Desktop client would be dropped after very few 
answers.

Using Mapserver would be a workaround but would BROKE the LICENSE agreement.

Re: SV: [mapserver-users] Mapserver consuming Google Maps

[Bob Basques]

All, 

I don't know whether is violates any rules or not, but it can consume the 
Google data just like Open Layers can, because it uses the OpenLayers display 
engine. 

Yes, it's a client, that's why the Server (re-processing) clause in the Google 
restrictions don't (directly?) apply. 

Even if OpenLayers wasn't being used as the display engine, GeoMoose could 
still consume Google maps, but it would be an add-on of some sort.  OpenLayers 
was used to provide this add-on functionality.

I guess I don't understand something... I thought GeoMoose was a web-based
client. Most web-based clients should be able to consume Google Maps (as I
said); But non-web based clients (generally) can't. (There are exceptions
to this, even without violating the ToS, but they're the exception, rather
than the rule.)

Is GeoMoose a contradiction to that? Or is it instead just another
web client that can consume Google Maps without violating the ToS?

[mapserver-users] Variable-substitution cause WMS GetFeatureInfo error

[AlessioDL]

Hi,

I'm creating an application based on UMN-Mapserver used as WMS server. The
application adds a filtered layer (stored in postgis) to the map, adding
only the features respondig to the filter value.

In my mapfile I have this:

LAYER
...
FILTER "year = %year%"
...
END

I get the value of %year% from OpenLayer and it works fine: the wms layer is
filtered as expected and added to the map.
A problem comes when I try to query the filtered layer with a getfeatureinfo
request.
I obtain a syntax error near the % character. It looks like the variable is
treated as something wrong... Infact, if I replace the variable with a
static value (for example FILTER "year=2008") the getfeatureinfo works fine.

Is there a way to obtain a working getfeatureinfo mantaining the variable
(%year%) in the FILTER?

Thank you in advance


The error is this

-

I guess I don't understand something... I thought GeoMoose was a web-based
client. Most web-based clients should be able to consume Google Maps (as I
said); But non-web based clients (generally) can't. (There are exceptions
to this, even without violating the ToS, but they're the exception, rather
than the rule.)

Is GeoMoose a contradiction to that? Or is it instead just another 
web client that can consume Google Maps without violating the ToS?

All, 

The newest version of GeoMoose is built on top of OpenLayers, so if the 
OpenLayer LIB is able to directly access, then GeoMoose can too.  I'm not up on 
the OpenLayers particulars, but as I understand things, the OpenLayers read 
options were a big reason for incorporating OpenLayers into GeoMoose. 

Looks like some GeoMoose Demos need to be put together . . . .

You are wrong on that.

That is incorrect. OpenLayers uses the Google Maps API -- we do not 
use the tiles directly. We only access the Google Maps data through their
Javascript API, in a browser.

MapServer can't do the same thing in any practical manner.

[mapserver-users] layers not getting separated

[sunny74]

Dear Friends,

I am displaying a map using mapserver and openlayers.The map is displayed
using a map file kept within a folder containing shape files.
Although the map is getting displayed, if I add more than one layer the
layers are not getting separated.
i.e I can see the layer in the Layer switcher but if I check or uncheck
nothing happens.
This means all the layers are coming as a single image.
I feel that there is something in the map file which I have ommitted and so
this happens.
I used QGIS to create the map file.

Looking for a solution.

Thanks for your replies.

Bing maps is providing a WMS interface via OnTerra
There is an article about it here

It would be a better approach.

Re: SV: SV: [mapserver-users] Mapserver consuming Google Maps

[Till Adams]

Niels-Peter,

the features you mention (turning on/off layers, changing order of 
layers) are for me more client side features than serverside- or 
mapserver-features - which brings us back to the client... ;-)


If you are looking for a free basemap you may check openstreetmap (OK, 
no aerial images so far, but also in progress: 
http://wiki.openaerialmap.org/OAM_2009 )


Regards, Till



Hi Till

I see the google maps tiles as a way of getting a free basemap. You are
properly right regarding distroted labels when reprojecting googlemaps -
depending on where you are in the world and the final projection. But at
least a pure sattelite image would ok.

I could make a client to consume both Mapserver and Googlemaps, but I would
like to do it on the server side and be able to use MapServer features, eg.
turning on/off layers, changing order of layers and so on.

Re: [mapserver-users] Mapserver consuming Google Maps

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

Openlayers applications are not cascading Google Maps tiles but client 
applications are requesting them from Google API, directly from the users 
computers.

I think that chapter 10 in the document at 
http://code.google.com/intl/fi-FI/apis/maps/terms.html says rather clear that 
you are not allowed to serve Google Map data through your Mapserver.

Re: SV: [mapserver-users] Mapserver consuming Google Maps

[Till Adams]

Niels-Peter,

I really do not see the need for this.

All things, which are fun regarding Mapserver are not possible with 
GoogleMaps, e.g. reprojection or define your map layout in an easy way. 
Even if you would write some piece of code, which would enable mapserver 
getting that google tiles as a datasource you'll have at least a slower 
service than pure google and - if reprojecting the google stuff - you'll 
have "unreadable" maps with distorted labels.


So beside the fact Chris already mentioned - I think if you have a 
client, which is able to show Mapserver services AND google map services 
together, you're fine, or what is your intention?


Regards, Till


Yes, it could be a violation of terms, but not if the copyright notice and
links still is there - or am I wrong on that ?
At least, thats this is what the Openlayers community thinks.
I think it would be a very nice if that could be accomplished with MapServer
too.

Niels-Peter

Hi mapserver users

Does anybody know if there has been done work to let MapServer consume 
Google maps ? I know that this is possible in OpenLayers (an example:

http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/google.html), but with MapServer I can
only se it the other way around, MapeServer serving maps til a GoogleMaps
application by WMS.



Doing so would be a violation of the terms of use of Google Maps.

Regards,

 Hi!
 
 I would suggest that someone with the right privileges adds the
 following
 the the documentation
 
 In the LAYER mapfile reference
 (http://mapserver.org/mapfile/layer.html),
 new headline Label directives:
 PROCESSING "LABEL_NO_CLIP=True"
 
 In the Raster Data, Special Processing Directives
 (http://mapserver.org/input/raster.html#special-processing-directives)
 PROCESSING "OVERSAMPLE_RATIO=[int]"
 
 Both are quite handy, and information about usage should be easy
 accessible
 in the documentation.
