Re: [mapserver-users] WMS Mapfile implementation

[Simon Mercier]

Joseph,

you add in your CONNECTION tag a capabilitiess request...?? you have to put
this for your connection:
http://imsortho.cr.usgs.gov/wmsconnector/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/USGS_EDC_Ortho_Ohiogoog_1265503917657

1)If you have to show county separately, you have to add one county in one
layer... But you can also cascading your request in other WMS to group them
in just one layer... (with the GROUP tag)


2)In a WMS layers,  you sould have at least this in your Metadata tag:

wms_srs(you need for your service),
wms_name(WMS name you call),
wms_title(you want show in your service)
wms_server_version(usualy 1.1.1)
wms_format(format support by your WMS provider)

 Greetings,

 I have a 2 part question.
 The USGS offers aerial imagery WMS service. This URL shows the location:
 http://seamless.usgs.gov/wms_services.php?layerid=15

  I want to incorporate a WMS service from the USGS that references many
 layers (in this case, county aerial imagery). The getcapabilites request
 show the layers in xml:
 ...
 OH_WoodCounty_1.0ft_Color_Mar_2006
 OH_WilliamsCounty_1.0ft_Color_Mar_2006
 OH_WayneCounty_1.0ft_Color_Mar_2006
 and so on.

 The online service URL is:
 http://imsortho.cr.usgs.gov/wmsconnector/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/USGS_EDC_Ortho_Ohio?REQUEST=capabilitiesSERVICE=WMS

 1. Is there a way to populate all these layers into my map with a single
 request, or do I need to make a mapfile layer object for each county?

 2. If so, In doing this do I need the metadata to spell out each
 layer's(county) specific metadata? {title, bbox, name, layer, srid}


 My mapfile currently reads:

 LAYER
 NAME OSIP-WMS
 TYPE RASTER
 #TRANSPARENCY 40
 STATUS OFF
 #MINSCALEDENOM 6000
 CONNECTIONTYPE WMS
 CONNECTION 
 http://imsortho.cr.usgs.gov/wmsconnector/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/USGS_EDC_Ortho_Ohio?REQUEST=capabilitiesSERVICE=WMSlayers=OH_AllenCounty_1.0ft_Color_Mar_2006
 

 METADATA
   wms_srs EPSG:4326
   wms_title   OH_AllenCounty_1.0ft_Color_Mar_2006
   wms_nameOH_AllenCounty_1.0ft_Color_Mar_2006
   wms_layer   OH_AllenCounty_1.0ft_Color_Mar_2006
   wms_server_version  1.1.1
   wms_format  image/png
   #wms_latlonboundingbox -85.00, 38.00, -80.25,
 42.00
 #wms_opaque 255,255,255
   basemap 1
 END

   END

 As I have tried to get a single county to work, but I have had no success,
 yet.
 Any haelp would be appreciated.

 Thank you

 Joe

[mapserver-users] Managing offset in the legend

[Ben Madin]

G'day all,

We have been showing some boolean information on the map using segments of a 
circle, created using vector symbols (of maximum dimension 1 x 1 pixel, and a 
size of 10.)

In order to keep sizes and stuff easy, all the vectors are just a quarter of a 
circle, and then we scale them up and use offsets to put them into position.
inline: mapimage.png
While this is working great on the maps, we can't get the legend to work (see 
attachment) with all the segments being offset, sometimes out of the legend.

Is there some solution we could use to 'recentre' the segments. At the moment 
the only client friendly solution we have is to create manually an image for 
the legend and superimpose it on the map, but the map creation system allows 
clients to create their own maps.

cheers

Ben
