I am working with some dynamic rainfall point data, and trying to display it
with a graduated color ramp to indicate total rainfall. The ramp is based on
the quartiles of the entire data set, hence the need to dynamically assign not
only the points but also the classIndex. I have attempted with the following
code which SUCCEEDS in drawing the points, but FAILS to change their
classification (they are all the same color). The gist of my code is to set
the class of each shape when setting the $shape->classIndex = whatever the
quartile is (I have 4 classes defined in my ramp - mapfile CLASS excerpt
follows code).
Any insight would be most helpful. Thanks!
<CODE>
foreach($qresult as $row) {
$shape = ms_newShapeObj(MS_SHAPE_POINT);
if ($row['total_precip_in'] > $max_precip) {
$max_precip = $row['total_precip_in'];
}
$p = $row['total_precip_in'];
if ($p < $q25) {
$c = 1;
} else {
if ($p < $q50) {
$c = 2;
} else {
if ($p < $q75) {
$c = 3;
} else {
$c = 4;
}
}
}
$this->logDebug("Adding: " . $row['x'] . "," . $row['y'] . " with
Precip = $p and Class = $c <br>\n");
$pt = ms_newPointObj();
$pt->setXY($row['x'], $row['y'], 0.0);
$line = ms_newLineObj();
$line->add( $pt );
$shape->add($line);
$shape->classIndex = $c;
$layer->addFeature( $shape );
$i++;
}
</CODE>
