I am working with some dynamic rainfall point data, and trying to display it with a graduated color ramp to indicate total rainfall. The ramp is based on the quartiles of the entire data set, hence the need to dynamically assign not only the points but also the classIndex. I have attempted with the following code which SUCCEEDS in drawing the points, but FAILS to change their classification (they are all the same color). The gist of my code is to set the class of each shape when setting the $shape->classIndex = whatever the quartile is (I have 4 classes defined in my ramp - mapfile CLASS excerpt follows code).
Any insight would be most helpful. Thanks! <CODE> foreach($qresult as $row) { $shape = ms_newShapeObj(MS_SHAPE_POINT); if ($row['total_precip_in'] > $max_precip) { $max_precip = $row['total_precip_in']; } $p = $row['total_precip_in']; if ($p < $q25) { $c = 1; } else { if ($p < $q50) { $c = 2; } else { if ($p < $q75) { $c = 3; } else { $c = 4; } } } $this->logDebug("Adding: " . $row['x'] . "," . $row['y'] . " with Precip = $p and Class = $c <br>\n"); $pt = ms_newPointObj(); $pt->setXY($row['x'], $row['y'], 0.0); $line = ms_newLineObj(); $line->add( $pt ); $shape->add($line); $shape->classIndex = $c; $layer->addFeature( $shape ); $i++; } </CODE> <MAPFILE EXCERPT> CLASS NAME "1st Quartile: 0.0 <= P <= 19.63" #EXPRESSION ( [globvalue] <= 19.63 ) SYMBOL 'circle' SIZE 2 COLOR 202 207 254 BACKGROUNDCOLOR 202 207 254 OUTLINECOLOR 202 207 254 END CLASS NAME "2nd Quartile: 19.63 < P <= 22.64" #EXPRESSION ( [globvalue] > 19.63 and [globvalue] <= 22.64 ) SYMBOL 'circle' SIZE 4 COLOR 137 148 253 BACKGROUNDCOLOR 137 148 253 OUTLINECOLOR 137 148 253 END CLASS NAME "3rd Quartile: 22.64 < P <= 25.6" #EXPRESSION ( [globvalue] > 22.64 and [globvalue] <= 25.6 ) SYMBOL 'circle' SIZE 6 COLOR 66 84 252 BACKGROUNDCOLOR 66 84 252 OUTLINECOLOR 66 84 252 END CLASS NAME "4th Quartile: P > 25.6" #EXPRESSION ( [globvalue] > 25.6 ) SYMBOL 'circle' SIZE 8 COLOR 4 26 236 BACKGROUNDCOLOR 4 26 236 OUTLINECOLOR 4 26 236 END CLASS NAME "No Data" SYMBOL 'circle' SIZE 2 COLOR 96 160 248 BACKGROUNDCOLOR 96 160 248 OUTLINECOLOR 96 160 248 END </MAPFILE EXCERPT> _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
