Re: [mapserver-users] Tracking vehicles, Displaying positions

Thank you Pietro. Before converting from DWG to DXF, I have to say that my DWG planimetry is not georeferenced. How can I georeference it? After georeferencing it, how can I import the file on the map server? It will be the map, isn't it? Thank you again Cheers Carmelo dxf2shp

RE: [mapserver-users] Problem with Python Mapscript / Projection(MS4W)

Have you tried to explicitly set the path to the proj library in the map file? Try adding this to the map object: CONFIG PROJ_LIB C:/somedir/proj/nad/ You can find a little more about this in the map file reference. http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapfile/mapObj David.

Hi Carmelo, it's no mode to know the projection of a dwg from itself: you have to ask those who produced. Once you have defined the projection and converted the dwg into .shp, you must to create a mapfile with a layer which data is the shapefile. Another layer will be the point layer of the

RE: [mapserver-users] Problem with Python Mapscript / Projection(MS4W) + new question

Christian, My experience is that the Python MapScript 'community' is extremely small. I really don't think that there are many people using it. If I am wrong, please speak up users. When I have posted questions to the list, if I got any response, it was from developers like Sean or Howard.

Re: [mapserver-users] Problem with Python Mapscript / Projection(MS4W) + new question

i use python mapscript. there are few examples, but a php mapscript example translates pretty directly to any other. and since it's python, there's no substitute for going into ipython, import'ing mapscript and using the autocompletion to see what's available. and i know it's not exactly what you

Re: [mapserver-users] Tracking vehicles, Displaying positions

Hi Carmelo, I am doing prettyt much this for vessel positions using PostGIS databases instead of MySQL. I believe PostGIS offers more mature substantially better support for spatial objects at present, but you can probably achieve similar results with MySQL. From a data management and

[mapserver-users] Status of Postscript support in MapServer

Hi Everyone, I'm considering the use of MapServer in an application that generates small maps that are included in printed documents. Currently these maps are generated by GMT as .eps files, a format which makes then very easy to insert into the report. I would like to know how people feel
