[mapserver-users] Map inset, anyone tried this?

2012-12-13 Thread Basques, Bob (CI-StPaul)
All, Wild thought here . . . I'm wondering about how to approach the need to add a map inset to a MapServer call. I know I can make separate calls and stack some maps on top of each other, but I'm wondering now about using a TRANSFORM of coordinates to put a Map Inset window into a Mapserver

Travis, I think MapServer is just going to lookup 2958 in the PROJ.4 epsg init file. So it may well be sufficient to update the entry to refer to the grid shift file. Something like changing this: # NAD83(CSRS) / UTM zone 17N <2958> +proj=utm +zone=17 +ellps=GRS80 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=

[mapserver-users] Mapserver CSRS support

2012-12-13 Thread Travis Kirstine
I have issue with my WMS service when using a source raster layer that is in EPSG:2958 - NAD83(CSRS) / UTM zone 17N srs. The issue is that Mapserrver (proj) does not apply a gridshift when requesting the layer in a different projection - UTM z17n NAD83. I have a gridshift file for this transformat

Re: [mapserver-users] Still impossible to force labels inside their polygons?

Label expressions might turn out to be useful here. Just thinking out loud... I mean we might be able to extend things and define expressions where you can write tests like the intersecting a label bbox against the parent shape. Expressions with multiple labels work like classes and are executed

[mapserver-users] Newer version of Freetype causing font rendering problems

2012-12-13 Thread Fiona Hemsley-Flint
