Thanks for the suggestion! I hadn't thought of that. My plan B is/was to have 1 cluster layer without getFeatureInfo disabled, which is turned off at a certain scale, where a regular layer with getFeatureInfo takes over. However, I think that the user experience gets quite worsened doing that.
As I read your suggestion, I tried to have one layer with only getFeatureInfo turned on, and getFeatureInfo turned off for the cluster layer. The problem seems to be that it puts too much strain on data loading, even though the source table contains only around 20,000 rows. I crashed QGIS several times testing this. It's too bad. It doesn't seem like it's possible to get getFeatureInfo to work in a reliable way for cluster layers. One interesting observation is that the label always is correct, and the reason for that seems to be that it doesn't use PROCESSING "ITEMS=…". But without PROCESSING "ITEMS=…" I don't get access to other attributes, it seems.

I don't have a lot of experience with CLUSTERs myself. bobb On Fri, Feb 14, 2025 at 7:51 AM Guldberg, Erik via MapServer-users <mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org<mailto:mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org>> wrote: Hi, I have a WMS service, https://kart.ra.no/wms/brukerminner, where I have problems getting correct getFeatureInfo results from a layer with CLUSTER content. It contains the cluster layer and a regular point layer for the same data. The regular point layer is shown at 1:50 000. For single objects in both the cluster layer, I want to be able to use getFeatureInfo. This works, but the problem is that the results most of the time are wrong, and that they change for time to time, likely due to change in zoom level. For the regular point layer, the result is always correct. I've also created a test cluster layer without the scale limit, and that also gives the correct result if I zoom in enough. All the symbols are placed correctly in the map, for all layers. I've used the database, and also this OGC API service (that uses the same data source as the WMS) as a reference: https://api.ra.no/brukerminner I'm using MapServer version 7.6.4. Some example queries, using QGIS. Wrong result. The object I get in the getfeatureinfo is 64 km away from where I clicked. https://kart.ra.no/wms/brukerminner?language=nor&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo&BBOX=760392.02671199827454984%2C8263040.88853696268051863%2C1033357.36004533339291811%2C8407916.1385369636118412&CRS=EPSG%3A3857&WIDTH=1984&HEIGHT=1053&LAYERS=Brukerminner&STYLES=&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&QUERY_LAYERS=Brukerminner&INFO_FORMAT=text%2Fhtml&I=1069&J=616&FEATURE_COUNT=10 Zoomed in a bit more gives another, wrong result.
