I am using C# MapScript to generate a series of map images representing different Canadian provinces individually. I'd rather not have to fiddle with each one to determine the right image size in pixels to get the desired level of detail.
I'm thinking there must be some way to give it the shape files and something like a desired scale and have it figure out the image size, but I don't see how. I've tried seeing if I can just set SCALEDENOM without an image size but that doesn't do it (and it's not really clear to me what it is supposed to do). An alternate approach would be to specify a maximum dimension and have it determine the other, which would at least give me fewer things to fiddle with; I get hung up there on the fact that the ratio of my map extents in either m or lat/lon is definitely not the desired ratio of the projected image in pixels, and I don't see a way to get from one to the other. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Dynamically-determining-map-size-with-map-script-tp4544257p4544257.html Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
