Re: [mapserver-users] symbol circle (ellipse) rendered not round but oval

2010-01-14 Thread Oliver Christen

mmm, in my opinion it would be clearer if the GAP didnt depend from 
anything, set the GAP to 10 would make you a spacing of 10px between each 
symbols border, whatever the values of the symbol POINTS.

but that may be a change too important ?

Yes, if the rendering behaviour had been according to my
preferences,
POINTS 10 10 END
GAP 1 (or 2 or 3)
should do it (if you had specified SIZE 10 in the STYLE).
You specify the gap, and not the centre to centre distance
between the ellipses.

But currently, this is not the behaviour.
Currently (with AGG in 5.6.0) you would have to specify:
POINTS 10 10 END
GAP 6 (or 7 or 8)
to get something close (if you specify SIZE 10 in the STYLE).

Something seems to be wrong when the GAP is close to
half the diameter specified in POINTS - some of the gaps
will be as expected, while others are larger (closer to the
actual number specified in GAP).

In my opinion, since the word "gap" is used, the correct
way to specify a symbol with ellipses that has the same
gap between them as the diameter of the ellipses should be
as follows:

symbol
  name dots
  type ellipse
  points 1 1 end
  gap 1
end

or an equivalent "scaled" version such as:

symbol
  name dots
  type ellipse
  points 23 23 end
  gap 23
end

The actual size of the ellipses (and the width of the gaps)
should be determined by the SIZE in CLASS-> STYLE.  If
SIZE is 10, the ellipses should have a 10 pixel diameter
(and should have a 10 pixel gap between them).

I have been hesitant to file bugs regarding symbology, since
the documentation on symbology is lacking and there is not
complete agreement on how some of the things that has to do
with symbology should work.  There have also been
discussions on changing some behaviour and mechanisms for
symbology.
First we have to agree on how things should work and document
it, then we can file bugs if behaviour is not as expected.

I see you have changed "points 1 1 end" by "points 8 8 end".
Tell me if im wrong, but these values are only used to render the 
proportions of the elipse but not it's size, is that correct?
so if I understand correctly, using larger values for the elipse 
width/height refine the rendering of the vectorised dot geometry ?

Dear Oliver Christen,

Using Mapserver 5.6.0 and AGG rendering, you can achieve what
you want by using a combination of ellipse size and gap size
in the symbol definition.
There is something strange in the calculations (a gap of
about half the ellipse size seems to produce touching symbols),
so in your case, you could try to use 8 as the diameter of the
ellipses, and 20 + 4 (half the ellipse size) = 24 as the
gap:

symbol
 name dots
 type ellipse
 points 8 8 end
 gap 24
end

Oliver Christen wrote:

so if I have a dot of, for example, 8px and I want a space pf 20px

RE: [mapserver-users] new query file format

2010-01-14 Thread Lime, Steve D (DNR)

Hi Stepan: The query performance improvements for the database drivers come 
from referring to features within a result set as we process query results. 
Previously, we referred to features globally and that is terribly inefficient 
in some cases, and that's why the old query files stored global feature 
indexes. Under the new querying scheme this simply won't work without the 
underlying query result set. The new scheme stores information necessary to 
redo a query and nothing more.

How you might recreate the old approach with MapScript 5.6.1 depends on your 
data store. With shapefiles, the index values stored in a result cache are 
suitable for use msQueryByIndex() as is. With a database source you need to 
work with a primary key and are probably best off working through 
msQueryByAttribute() instead. Perhaps Paul Ramsey can comment on whether or not 
the overall row number is somehow retrievable from a query result so that 
msQueryByIndex() could indeed be used, I don't think it is. In either case 
you'd need to serialize/unserialize your result list or hash yourself, 
msSaveQuery()/msLoadQuery() doesn't do it for you.

Does this help?

Steve

Hi there,

I have two symbol definition in my mapfile:

While moving the map around (and without making any changes in the mapfile
or in js code), sometime Mapserver is drawing the arrow up symbol (hausse),
and the other time, the arrow down symbol (baisse). See attachment for this
strange display. In both case, the symbol who's not displayed correctly is
replaced with a little box in the center of the circle.

Sorry guys!  I left out part of the map file that I didn't think was
relevant but definitely is.  I had an 
OUTPUTFORMAT that I was using for a related, but different part of the
application.

  OUTPUTFORMAT
NAME 'selected_parcel'
DRIVER 'TEMPLATE'
MIMETYPE 'text/html'
FORMATOPTION 'FILE=selected_parcel.tmpl'
  END

Changing 
  MIMETYPE 'text/html' to  MIMETYPE 'text/html; driver=imagemap'
resolved the issue.  Now our GetFeatureInfo request queries return in the

Have a good day all!

You specify the gap, and not the centre to centre distance

Dear Oliver Christen,

Using Mapserver 5.6.0 and AGG rendering, you can achieve what
you want by using a combination of ellipse size and gap size
in the symbol definition.
There is something strange in the calculations (a gap of
about half the ellipse size seems to produce touching symbols),
so in your case, you could try to use 8 as the diameter of the
ellipses, and 20 + 4 (half the ellipse size) = 24 as the
gap:

symbol
 name dots
 type ellipse
 points 8 8 end
 gap 24
end

Re: [mapserver-users] symbol circle (ellipse) rendered not round but oval

2010-01-14 Thread Stephen Woodbridge

So if I want ten pixel ellipses with a 1, 2, or 3 pixels gap how would 
you specify that?


points 10 10 gap 1 (or 2 or 3)?

In my opinion, since the word "gap" is used, the correct
way to specify a symbol with ellipses that has the same
gap between them as the diameter of the ellipses should be
as follows:

symbol
  name dots
  type ellipse
  points 1 1 end
  gap 1
end

or an equivalent "scaled" version such as:

symbol
  name dots
  type ellipse
  points 23 23 end
  gap 23
end

The actual size of the ellipses (and the width of the gaps)
should be determined by the SIZE in CLASS-> STYLE.  If
SIZE is 10, the ellipses should have a 10 pixel diameter
(and should have a 10 pixel gap between them).

I have been hesitant to file bugs regarding symbology, since
the documentation on symbology is lacking and there is not
complete agreement on how some of the things that has to do
with symbology should work.  There have also been
discussions on changing some behaviour and mechanisms for
symbology.
First we have to agree on how things should work and document
it, then we can file bugs if behaviour is not as expected.

Hi guys,

I haven't followed this whole thread but I think it should be better 
documented so people can understand how to use this. Please write a 
doc bug and put as much information in the bug about how this works 
as you have been able to discover.

I see you have changed "points 1 1 end" by "points 8 8 end".
Tell me if im wrong, but these values are only used to render the 
proportions of the elipse but not it's size, is that correct?
so if I understand correctly, using larger values for the elipse 
width/height refine the rendering of the vectorised dot geometry ?

Dear Oliver Christen,

Using Mapserver 5.6.0 and AGG rendering, you can achieve what
you want by using a combination of ellipse size and gap size
in the symbol definition.
There is something strange in the calculations (a gap of
about half the ellipse size seems to produce touching symbols),
so in your case, you could try to use 8 as the diameter of the
ellipses, and 20 + 4 (half the ellipse size) = 24 as the
gap:

symbol
 name dots
 type ellipse
 points 8 8 end
 gap 24
end

so if I have a dot of, for example, 8px and I want a space pf 20px

but as far as I can see, Mapserver doesnt like none-integer value 
for gap.


what should I do? :(

[mapserver-users] 5.6.1 - GetFeatureInfo - template processing

2010-01-14 Thread Ted Spradley


Hi everyone,

In version 5.4.1 the following GetFeatureInfo request url produced a table
described by templates for the
layer 'bldg_query' described below.  With ver 5.6.1, Mapserver outputs only
the template from the
mapfile's WEB object (with no query results or image).

Do you have any idea of changes to make?  To the request format?  To the
mapfile? 

Thank you all very much,
Ted S.

Re: [mapserver-users] how can I associate MySql and Gdal

2010-01-14 Thread karlos036

Murat,

  You'll need to get the MapServer source and compile it yourself in order
to add MySql support.

  Look at the 5.4.2 documentation
(http://mapserver.org/installation/unix.html) for instructions.

  In order to compile MapServer, you'll need to have the MySql db, client
and dev packages installed.  You can use whatever package manager you have
to add any missing component.

  I've did some testing with MySql.  I converted all of the world country
shapefiles (.shp) to sql import scripts and then imported them into MySql (I
have instructions on how to do this archived somewhere).  Displaying simple
geometries worked OK, but complex shapes such as Argentina or Chile (lots of
small vectors define the country outline) were very slow to load even when
indexed carefully.  I found that PostgesSQL was much faster and better
supported if you are planning on storing your shapefiles within a database
in order to query and then display them.   If you are just storing data
points, then MySql works fine.

Cheers,

Karlos

Re: [mapserver-users] symbol circle (ellipse) rendered not round but oval

2010-01-14 Thread Oliver Christen


Thank you for the explanation.

Im still trying to figure out how to calculate exactly the GAP and ellipse 
POINT depending on the symbol's size and the distance between the points 
wanted.
empirically I have come with the formula: distance = (GAP * SIZE * 0.75) / 
POINTS
seems weird but at least I get some way to estimate the different values to 
use for GAP and POINTS



Oliver Christen wrote:
mmm, then whats the difference between "points 1 1 end" and "points 8 8 
end" ?


For an ELLIPSE symbol definition without GAP, there is no
difference.
The bounding box of the symbol will be used when rendering
the symbol.  The height of the symbol bounding box on the
map will be the size given in the STYLE of the CLASS in
the LAYER.
I have found this practice very convenient when creating
complex vector symbols.

When you have an ELLIPSE symbol definition with a GAP
specified, the relationship between the values used in
POINTS and GAP is very important.

For the current version of Mapserver and AGG, if you set
SIZE in STYLE to 8, and combine that with the symbol
definition I suggested (points 8 8, gap 24), I think you
would get a reasonable result.

Tell me if im wrong, but these values are only used to render the 
proportions of the elipse but not it's size, is that correct?
so if I understand correctly, using larger values for the elipse 
width/height refine the rendering of the vectorised dot geometry ?

The size of the symbols are determined by the values given
in the style of the class in the layer.  So the magnitude
of the values used in the symbol definition only have
effect within the symbol definition (makes it possible to
use only integers, and makes it easier to do the
arithmetics :-) ).
The magnitude of the values used in the symbol definition
should have no bearing on the way the symbols are rendered
by Mapserver.

Dear Oliver Christen,

Using Mapserver 5.6.0 and AGG rendering, you can achieve what
you want by using a combination of ellipse size and gap size
in the symbol definition.
There is something strange in the calculations (a gap of
about half the ellipse size seems to produce touching symbols),
so in your case, you could try to use 8 as the diameter of the
ellipses, and 20 + 4 (half the ellipse size) = 24 as the
gap:

symbol
 name dots
 type ellipse
 points 8 8 end
 gap 24
end

Hi guys,

I haven't followed this whole thread but I think it should be better 
documented so people can understand how to use this. Please write a doc 
bug and put as much information in the bug about how this works as you 
have been able to discover.

2010-01-14 Thread Oliver Christen

mmm, I tested a bit and it seems the calculation is more complex than that, as 
the ellipse size definition of the symbol has also some effect.

style->size 8, "points 6 6 end", "gap 20" => spacing of ~20px between dots
style->size 8, "points 8 8 end", "gap 20" => spacing of ~14px between dots
style->size 10, "points 6 6 end", "gap 20" => spacing of ~26px between dots

I fear I dont understand at all how this is calculated :(

  with GAP 2, I had ~10px between dots,
  with GAP 3, I had ~18px between dots,
  with GAP 4, I had ~26px between dots

  whats the logic ?

  Hi Thomas :)

  thanks for the answer, but sadely it didnt solve my problem:

  here are a few tests I did:

  using GAP 20 gave me really weird result:
  http://dev.camptocamp.com/~ochriste/tilecache6_gap_20.png

  using PATTERN 1 22 END gave me better result, but the dot are still 
slightly oval:
  http://dev.camptocamp.com/~ochriste/tilecache7_pattern.png

  I wondered if the visual effect may have come from the fact im 
pilling up two circle one over the other, but even when trying to display only 
the outer or inner circles, the circle are still slightly off:
  http://dev.camptocamp.com/~ochriste/tilecache4_outercircle.png
  http://dev.camptocamp.com/~ochriste/tilecache5_innercircle.png
  (both at once 
http://dev.camptocamp.com/~ochriste/tilecache3_bothcircle.png)

  any other idea? ^_^

hi Oliver :)

try with GAP 20 instead of STYLE 1 20 END (which is deprecated btw, 
use PATTERN now)

cheers,

  hello

  I have a weird problem with symbology.
  Im rendering a line with dots, but the dots are not round but 
slightly oval, see image http://dev.camptocamp.com/~ochriste/tilecache.png

  Any idea what could be the cause ?

  Here is my symbol definition:

  SYMBOL
   NAME "linie-gepunkt10"
   TYPE ELLIPSE
   POINTS
1 1
   END
   STYLE
1 20
   END
   FILLED TRUE
  END

  and my layer's class definition:

   CLASS
EXPRESSION "3"
MAXSCALEDENOM 21
STYLE
  SYMBOL "linie-gepunkt10"
  SIZE 10
  COLOR 102 51 0
END
STYLE
  SYMBOL "linie-gepunkt10"
  SIZE 8
  COLOR 204 102 0
END
   END

  and the map outputformat:

  OUTPUTFORMAT
   NAME png
   DRIVER "AGG/PNG"
   MIMETYPE "image/png"
   IMAGEMODE RGBA
   EXTENSION "png"
   FORMATOPTION "INTERLACE=OFF"
  END
