Hi daryl,

thank you for your answer.


I can preprocess the netcdf to change it to direction/magnitude. but I couldn't get the SYMBOL to work with raster LAYER.

My mapfile looks something like this:


LAYER

  ...

  DATA "NETCDF:\test\test.nc:direction"

  TYPE RASTER

  PROCESSING     "BANDS=1"

  PROCESSING     "SCALE=0,360"

  ...

  CLASS

      EXPRESSION ([pixel] > 0.0 )

      STYLE

        SYMBOL "arrow"

        ANGLE     [pixel]

        COLOR     0 0 0

      END

   END

  ...


but I just get an black map of my raster. Are symbols supported with rasters?

I have a netcdf containing the Lon/Lat components of winds and currents and I want to display them on an arrow map. Is there a way to do this? so far I only found a way to do this for point shapefiles, but my data is composed of two rasters. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Ron,

Do you need to do this within the Mapserver CGI environment or can you use Mapscript to generate your images? If you can use mapscript, you can write your own logic to figure out the rotation values based on the components.

If you are stuck without mapscript, you could use another tool to add a rotation variable to your NetCDF file and then directly use it in your mapfile for symbol rotation (I believe this is now supported in 5.2.0)...

Others on this list may have more clever ideas.
