Hi Tanya: You might want to try using an OGR output format (https://mapserver.org/output/ogr_output.html#ogr-output). It supports GML as well and should provide a little more control and does respect the precision metadata.

Is this correct? For example I tried setting this for the SIZE field: 'gml_SIZE_type' 'Real' 'gml_SIZE_precision' '2' but this had no effect on the GML output: <SIZE>7.50000000000e-01</SIZE> Is there another way that I can accomplish better output from this service? The source data format is a shapefile, and unlikely to change in this case. thanks for any suggestions, Tanya [1] https://mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_server.html<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmapserver.org%2Fogc%2Fwfs_server.html&data=05%7C01%7Csteve.lime%40state.mn.us%7C92de1711c522429f56dd08dadfb299cb%7Ceb14b04624c445198f26b89c2159828c%7C0%7C0%7C638068255436232436%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=otZ4PYcfHKAkflyChwsf2W6%2BmGDt4GXKBjNcb0XlOKA%3D&reserved=0>
