Raivo, 

 

I sometimes get odd artifacts showing up on my PNG24 maps as well. I don't know 
if it's related to your problem, but I believe mine is client-related based on 
its behavior, even though it happens on multiple computers and browsers. 

 

Every now and then, my map comes out looking like this: 
https://netfiles.umn.edu/users/emers089/www/imgerror.jpg

 

It doesn't always look the same, sometimes  the map is greyed out or covered in 
mostly black, sometimes only part of the map is affected. 

 

Since it's unpredictable and infrequent, I haven't been able to test very much. 
However, It clears itself immediately when I click anything on the page, or 
when I resize the browser window. That makes me think that my problem is 
related to client-side graphics drivers; the correct image is already in the 
browser, just hidden under the artifacting. I've been meaning to play around 
with driver updates, but it hasn't been enough of an issue.

I'm sorry, I fear I can't help you further.  I'm sure that somebody else will 
go on with your problem soon.  There must be something odd in the image or in 
your Mapserver.  You could still try two things and try to find exact reason 
for the failure:

- use ready compiled Mapserver if you find such for your operating system

- test with another image from different source

        Hi,
        
        thank you but sadly it did'nt help. 
        Changed the DRIVER and translated to GeoTiff, but the problem remained. 
        Even after I changed my .map file projection to EPSG:3301 (same like 
that .tif file has) was the same picture there.
        If I zoom in/out, then the picture changes a bit ->

        Strange:)

        Hi,

         

        If all the clients show the same artifacts we can trust they come from 
the server.  For some reason it does not like your original image.  Try 
converting it to uncompressed geotiff image with gdal_translate

         

        gdal_translate -of GTiff 54653.tif 54653_basic.tif

         

        Make another layer from this new image, or edit your mapfile to use 
that instead of the original 54653.tif.  What happens? By the way, I believe it 
should read

        DRIVER "GD/PNG24"

                Hei,
                
                thank you for advice!
                I changed .map a bit:  
                
                IMAGETYPE png24
                OUTPUTFORMAT
                  NAME png24
                  DRIVER "GD/PNG"
                  MIMETYPE "image/png"
                  IMAGEMODE RGBA
                  EXTENSION "png"
                END
                
                output quality looks better, but that black-lined crap is still 
there:(
                I tried the same with uDig and Gaia WMS-clients, but it's the 
same.

                It's getting closer.  Image is now at least in a correct place? 
 Distortion can be due to ArcMAP, perhaps it does not like the outputformat you 
are using.  Next trials:

                - Have a try with another client software. like Quantum GIS, 
OpenJUMP, Cadcorp SIS map browser, or just your web browser.

                - Try changing outputformat.  I believe you will need to change 
it anyway, png is not good for aerial images.  Try png24 or jpeg instead.

                        I added PROJECTION block to the layer, but 
unfortunately the same dance: output is corrupted as it could be seen here:

                        Maybe I should compile mapserver without -with-tiff key?

                        You have defined the output projection as epsg:4326 and 
by quick look it is OK in both map projection and WMS metadata.  However, your 
original image is in Estonian projection, but Mapserver does not know it 
automatically.  You need to add PROJECTION block to layer definitions as well.  
Try editin your mapfile as follows: 

                         

                        LAYER
                          TYPE RASTER
                          NAME "raster"
                          STATUS ON
                          DATA "54653.tif"

                        PROJECTION

                           "init=epsg:3301"

                        END  #end projection
                        END #end layer

                        I hope I guessed the epsg code right.

                                Impossible to say with this information.  Much 
better possibilities to help you if you could send also the main MAP part of 
your mapfile including at lesast outputformat and projection, and the metadata

                                        Aihe: [mapserver-users] mapserver 5 
TIFF displaying problem

                                        Hello,
                                        
                                        I'm quite new using Mapserver and found 
myself struggling with this simple-looking problem:
                                        
                                        In my map file, there is layer defined 
as follows:
                                        LAYER
                                         TYPE RASTER
                                         NAME "raster"
                                         STATUS ON
                                         DATA "54653.tif"
                                        END
                                        
                                        The problem is, that this image is 
corrupted when I look at it in ArcMap - it contains strange black boxes and 
stripes. Original image is OK, so
                                        I guess the problem is somewhere in map 
file. 
                                        .tfw file should be ok:
                                        1.000000000000000
