Yes, I know, but a customer was worried about that, because it could
lead to false conclusions :-/

RE: [mapserver-users] Shapefile, itemnquery and HTML image map generation problem

[W.John Guineau]

Hi Steve,

Ok, I took the time to clean up the map file and make a simpler case for you
to look at.

Here is the archive:

http://CoyoteTechnology.com/ms/shape.zip

It's about 4 meg. If you unzip that to C:\ all the paths in the mapfile
should work (except the MS4w path to Apache's temp directory). Otherwise it
should be pretty straight-forward to get it going.

I left 4 example layers that exhibit the problem. Each layer has an example
URL to use to get it to render the map.

Let me know if I missed anything.

Thanks for the help!

john

Seems like an extent problem to me - the way the results are clustered in
the
center of the image. MapServer does apply a spatial pre-filter for attribute
queries. However, the searchmap=true should compute a proper extent based
on your image properties (extent, size) before doing the query.

John, what are the changes you could zip up your data and mapfile for me?

Do the ones not selected fall at the end of your qstring? I'm wondering if
something is getting truncated. I'd think

you'd get a parsing error in that case, but perhaps not. Can you label the
polygons with the value for MLRARSYM?

RE: [mapserver-users] Shapefile, itemnquery and HTML image map generation problem

[W.John Guineau]

Hmm, based on your comments about extent below, I just noticed that if I
expand the extents well outside the area of interest, it renders more of the
missing areas! Not all of them though. So it does seem extent related. You
were right that it seems to favor the areas on the very interior of the
extents.

Unfortunately I then get a map that is too zoomed-out to be usable.

But this seems to be the sensitivity!

RE: [mapserver-users] Shapefile, itemnquery and HTML image map generation problem

[W.John Guineau]

Yup, that was it. I had some crazy extents defined for the URL strings.
Apparently the "center of gravity" of my URL extents combined with the map
image size gave me the false impression in the rendered map image that I had
the region covered. It showed the region of interest, but selected a small
area for actual query.

Thanks for the critical bit of insight Steve - extents. And the querymap
piece to easily show me what was actually being selected from the URL
itemlist.

They will display normally in windows but only one will display in

Mapserver 5.2 anyone have any suggestions?


Hmm.  Do you get any errors when trying to create a map image?  You can 
test this by using the shp2img commandline utility 
(http://www.mapserver.org/utilities/shp2img.html).  If MapServer can't 
find the font you should get an error such as "TrueType Font error. 
Could not find/open font".


If you don't get any errors I'm not sure what the issue is.

[mapserver-users] How do I use ASRP maps in mapserver?

[Alans]

Can anyone tell me how to use ASRP maps in mapserver, or point me at some
relevant documentation. The GDAL list of supported raster formats indicates
that this should be possible (http://www.gdal.org/frmt_various.html#SRP) but
I can't find any instructions as to how to specify this format in a LAYER of
a .map file.

Hello Alans,

Interesting.  I have never used that format but I can give some hints.

First, you should execute 'gdalinfo --formats' on your server to check
if you has SRP support.  Look for something like "SRP (ro) : Standard 
Raster Product (ASRP/USRP)" in the returned list of formats; this will 
verify that your local MapServer/GDAL build can read the ASRP format.


Next, you can point to the image in your mapfile layer, such as (and I'm 
guessing this, as I don't have your data to test):


LAYER
  NAME "ASRP"
  DATA "myfile.img"
  TYPE RASTER
  STATUS ON
END

(a good document for you to read about raster support in MapServer is 
http://www.mapserver.org/input/raster.html)


Finally, you could test your mapfile with the shp2img commandline 
utility, to see any error reports 
(http://www.mapserver.org/utilities/shp2img.html)


I hope this helps you a little.

Re: [mapserver-users] Question on the layer order impact in a Getmap(WMS) call

By observation, I might add to this that if layer STATUS is DEFAULT, the
layer order does not appear to be affected by the order in the WMS call.  If
any layers are STATUS DEFAULT, LAYER rendering in a WMS call appears to be
ordered by DEFAULT layers drawn in their map file order, then other layers
by order in the WMS call.

Am I correct in this observation?

Hello Alans,

Interesting.  I have never used that format but I can give some hints.

First, you should execute 'gdalinfo --formats' on your server to check
if you has SRP support.  Look for something like "SRP (ro) : Standard 
Raster Product (ASRP/USRP)" in the returned list of formats; this will 
verify that your local MapServer/GDAL build can read the ASRP format.


Next, you can point to the image in your mapfile layer, such as (and I'm 
guessing this, as I don't have your data to test):


LAYER
  NAME "ASRP"
  DATA "myfile.img"
  TYPE RASTER
  STATUS ON
END

(a good document for you to read about raster support in MapServer is 
http://www.mapserver.org/input/raster.html)


Finally, you could test your mapfile with the shp2img commandline 
utility, to see any error reports 
(http://www.mapserver.org/utilities/shp2img.html)


I hope this helps you a little.

-jeff



Sorry Alans,

I forgot an import step:

After verifying SRP support with 'gdalinfo --formats', next step is to 
see if GDAL can read your exact file, by using gdalinfo again:


  gdalinfo myfile.img

You should see some info returned such as Size, Pixel Size, 
Coordinates...etc.


Then you can focus on your mapfile layer.

Thanks Jeff,

It looks like my GDAL is out of date. 'gdal --version' reports:

  GDAL 1.6.0dev, FWTools 2.0.6, released 2008/02/03

'gdalinfo --formats' does not list SRP as a supported format.

My GDAL came as part of FWTools. I will attempt to update GDAL and try
again.

No problem.  If you are on Windows, MS4W does come with SRP support by 
default (http://www.maptools.org/ms4w/).


You can ask question related to MS4W on its email list (subscribe at 
http://lists.maptools.org/mailman/listinfo/ms4w-users)

Alan,

SRP driver has been added into GDAL SVN trunk a few months ago, so it 
will be part of the GDAL 1.7.0 release.

[mapserver-users] Label polygon borders?

[Ted Spradley]

Hi everyone,

Is there a way to have labels follow polygon borders?

i.e. when zoomed in on a border between states/countries, etc. can MS render
a label just inside the polygons and following the polygon border?

Thanks, Ted S.

[mapserver-users] advertise more than one SRS for WFS

[Holger Porath]

Hi all,

mapserver's documentation states that "Contrary to WMS, the OGC WFS  
specification doesn’t allow a layer (feature type) to be advertised in  
more than one SRS".


But the OGC WFS 1.1 spec states that "The optional srsName attribute  
of the  element is used to specify a specific WFS-supported SRS  
to be used for returned feature geometries".


As mapserver supports WFS 1.1 since versin 5.2, how do I configure a  
layer to advertise more than one SRS?


Any help much appreciated.

Cheers

Re: [mapserver-users] advertise more than one SRS for WFS

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Use the ows_srs metadata on a layer.

So:

METADATA
  ..
  ows_srs "EPSG:28992 EPSG:4326"
  ..
END

Best regards,
Bart

[mapserver-users] MS4W: Curve Label not work

Dear everyone,

I'm new to MS4W and do not know how to make Curve Label working. I already
set ANGLE FOLLOW in Label Section in MAP file but all label is placed
horizontal. I hope you can help me to solve this problem.

Thank you very much for your attention!

AW: [mapserver-users] How do I Control QUERY Output?

[Arnd Wippermann]

Hi,

You cann't insert html to a html document by using a url. There is nothing
like the img tag for pictures.
You have to use ajax to request your query. Then you can put the result with
innerHTML to your element.

 From a simple MapServer HTML interface I switch to Query mode and click on

You have to use a truetype font for that to work.

If you did show us you LAYER definition from your mapfile.

Thanks again, Arnd.
That solution occurred to me this morning, so I'm going to try that out 
next. The other acceptable solution would be to open a new pop-up window 
and send the output there, but I think the AJAX method will be the 
better one for what I want it to do.

Re: [mapserver-users] Label polygon borders?

[Steve Lime]

If your polygons are consistently clockwise or counter-clockwise, you may be 
able
to use a LINE layer to do this. The label positions UC or LC should consistently
place the label in the polygon depending on orientation of the vertices.

Try it and see what happens...

Re: AW: [mapserver-users] How do I Control QUERY Output?

[Steve Lime]

The AJAX method will work nicely. This site does just that:

  http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/waters/csg/index.html 

If you use the identify tool to click on a point the query output is
placed in an Ext window. If
you hover over a point very simple query output is stuffed in a div.
