[mapserver-users] seamless data

2010-12-20 Thread ahmet temiz
hello

As far as I know, one of the objectives of mapserver is seamless data transfer.
Can anyone can tell me what "seamless" means in terms of WebGIS ?

regards

I think this is wrong. Try --with-pgconfig=/path/to/pg_config

[mapserver-users] PostGIS installation

2010-12-20 Thread qazi iqbal
I am in process of setting up mapserver on virtual server that comes with
postgres installed. Almost I have installed everything before going for
mapserver installation. Now I need to install PostGIS. I tried to configure
it with
./configure --with-postgres=/path
but it gives me error that
pg_config not found.
Can anyone help me
Thanks

RE: [mapserver-users] OGR data layer type - points and lines

2010-12-20 Thread Fawcett, David (MPCA)
It took 4 whole days, but thanks to Sandro, Spatialite now has a MakeLine() 
function.

http://groups.google.com/group/spatialite-users/browse_thread/thread/20f8e907ae9226

The feature is in SVN, I am not sure if it will make it into the pending 2.4.0 
release.  I am also not sure how the OGR driver works and if it can accept 
geometries created on-the-fly, or if they need to come from a geometry column.

David.

Ian, 

I thought that there was a pretty simple answer to this, but it seems as though 
I have imagined some non-existing functionality.

Assuming that you have a Spatialite db containing a point data set, and you 
have a MapServer layer that draws this, I think that I have a solution for you. 
 (This also assumes that OGR supports reading linestrings from Spatialite).

PostGIS has the ST_MakeLine() function that allows you to create linestrings 
out of point geometries.  The current version of Spatialite doesn't have 
anything like this (although since I have mentioned it on the Spatialite list, 
it could be there soon...)


So, this SQL employs some workarounds, but may work:

SELECT LineFromText('LINESTRING(' || group_concat(X(geometry) || ' ' || 
Y(geometry), ',') || ')') FROM datapoints ORDER BY fix_date;

If performance is a problem, I would build a Spatialite line dataset and 
rebuild it every time your point dataset changes.

David.

[mapserver-users] Re: Reference map depicted area extent line width

2010-12-20 Thread manu aymerich

Thanks Jeff. However as I had already checked, there is no defined parameter
to modify the style of the area of interest rectangle depicted on the
reference map.

Workaround anybody?

Regards,

Manuel Aymerich

RE: [mapserver-users] Mapserver Google Maps

2010-12-20 Thread Fawcett, David (MPCA)
Rashad,

The short answer is, "you can't do it".  (That might be the long answer too.)

>From a technical standpoint MapServer can't consume tiles directly from Google 
>and from a legal standpoint, when you accept Google's terms of service, you 
>agree to not do something like this.

If you want to display your own personal data with Google's data, do it on the 
client side.  Most people do it using OpenLayers.

David.

RE: [mapserver-users] DATA and SUBSET keywords

2010-12-20 Thread Fawcett, David (MPCA)
Stephan,

This might be some newer syntax that I haven’t seen before, but I would try it 
a different way:

DATA “'locaux_etj6_poly”
FILTER (“[unite]” == “SCTA” AND “[dur_occ]” == “permanent”)

Note:  This is no longer using LIKE, but because you didn’t have any wildcards 
in your original expression, I am guessing that you just wanted the exact 
values.  I am not aware of  a ‘LIKE’ comparison in MapServer logical 
expressions, but you could definitely cook up a regular expression if you 
needed one.

You don’t want to use the ‘smart quotes’ like my email client inserted.  Just 
use plain double quotes.

Case sensitivity may apply to the column names, it will definitely apply to the 
values.

David.

Hi everyone,

I’m a newbie using MapServer and, writing my map file, I come to a problem 
which seems unsolvable to me: I would like to represent only some features from 
a shapefile, based on a simple SQL statement between the attributes of the 
respective shapefile. I tried to use the map file exported from Qgis which 
looks like:
…
LAYER

TYPE POLYGON
DUMP true
DATA 'locaux_etj6_poly.shp'|layerid=0|subset="unite" LIKE 'SCTA' AND 
"dur_occ" LIKE 'permanent''
STATUS OFF
TRANSPARENCY 100
…
but it is not working: loadLayer(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near 
(|):(line 464)

I tried to find some detailed information or examples using DATA and(or) SUBSET 
keywords but I didn’t found something useful. So, can anyone explain me what is 
wrong, how to do this or where to find some documentation on this.

Thank you in advance.

Re: [mapserver-users] SQL equivalent for MapScript queryByRect

2010-12-20 Thread Rahkonen Jukka
Hi,

I was thinking that why not to use standard WFS which supports well your 
example query.  However, it can be difficult to optimize WFS for some certaind 
frequently used queries because WFS must support almost everything you and your 
users can imagine. I did a quick search and I believe this article is worth 
reading

[mapserver-users] SQL equivalent for MapScript queryByRect

2010-12-20 Thread Shorthouse, David
Hello folks,

First, I'd like to say that I have been enjoying MapServer for many
years and really appreciate the work you guys put into it. I recently
got back into it in more earnest with a pet project for users to
produce print-quality, greyscale point maps...learned some new tricks.

Second, I have project that requires me to query either shapefiles or
spatially indexed tables and produce some simple web service
responses. So, this has to perform very quickly. I am writing to
inquire if anyone knows how one would reproduce in spatial SQL the
exact equivalent of the PHP MapScript queryByShape? I'm starting to
get a mess of SQL with unexpected record sets and am nowhere further
ahead.

e.g. SELECT column FROM table WHERE (WITHIN(GEOMFROMTEXT('WKT'),
the_geom) OR (OVERLAPS(GEOMFROMTEXT('WKT'), the_geom)) etc.

Thanks for any insights,

David P. Shorthouse
