Hi, I am a new user, using mapserver 8.0.0:
I have been going through the tutorials and have trouble making rasters work on my WMS server. The same map file works fine in QGIS, so I think there is a bug in mapserver, but wanted to write here in case I am doing anything silly. If I query the server I get layers that have minx miny in the BoundingBox that are transposed with respect to lat and lon: ``` <Layer queryable="0" opaque="0" cascaded="0"> <Name>modis</Name> <Title>modis</Title> <CRS>EPSG:4326</CRS> <EX_GeographicBoundingBox> <westBoundLongitude>-97.238976</westBoundLongitude> <eastBoundLongitude>-82.122902</eastBoundLongitude> <southBoundLatitude>41.619778</southBoundLatitude> <northBoundLatitude>49.385620</northBoundLatitude> </EX_GeographicBoundingBox> <BoundingBox CRS="EPSG:4326" minx="41.619778" miny="-97.238976" maxx="49.385620" maxy="-82.122902"/> <MetadataURL type="TC211"> <Format>text/xml</Format> <OnlineResource xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="https://cproof.uvic.ca/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/opt/mapserver/cproof/mapserver_raster.map&request=GetMetadata&layer=modis"/> </MetadataURL> </Layer> ``` If I query the wms server with `https://cproof.uvic.ca/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/opt/mapserver/cproof/mapserver_raster.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3&REQUEST=Map&Layers=modis&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=-97.238976,41.619778,-82.122902,49.385620&FORMAT=png&WIDTH=360&HEIGHT=270` I get a blank image If I swap lat for lon in the BBOX=41.619778,-97.238976,49.385620,-82.122902, then it works, but is of course distorted. Maybe I’m really mis-understanding the BBOX parameter, but it seems that there is a bug where someone has said x is equivalent to latitude, where they meant longitude. Again, this map works fine in QGIS, I assume because it doesn’t look at the BoundingBox and just uses the <westBoundLatitude> etc. The map file is ``` MAP NAME "MAPSERVER_RASTER" IMAGETYPE PNG24 EXTENT -97.238976 41.619778 -82.122902 49.385620 SIZE 360 270 SHAPEPATH "./data/" IMAGECOLOR 200 200 200 PROJECTION "init=epsg:4326" END WEB METADATA ows_title "MapServer Raster" ows_enable_request "*" ows_srs "EPSG:4326" ows_onlineresource "https://cproof.uvic.ca/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/opt/mapserver/cproof/mapserver_raster.map" END END LAYER # MODIS raster layer begins here NAME "modis" DATA "ugl_ref2.png" STATUS DEFAULT TYPE RASTER EXTENT -97.238976 41.619778 -82.122902 49.385620 OFFSITE 71 74 65 PROJECTION "init=epsg:4326" END END # MODIS raster layer ends here END ``` Thanks, Jody _______________________________________________ MapServer-users mailing list MapServer-users@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
