RE: [mapserver-users] OUTPUTFORMAT shapefiles instead of GML2/GML3 withWFS?
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Maarten Plieger Sent: Tuesday, 02 December 2008 07:25 To: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: [mapserver-users] OUTPUTFORMAT shapefiles instead of GML2/GML3 withWFS? Hi all, Is it possible to configure mapserver in such a way that it returns shapefiles instead of GML from a WFS GetFeature request? Not that I know of. Not out of the box. I would like to be able to output in GML2, GML3 and shapefiles... GML2 and GML3 work fine. The problem is that my GML files get very big, up to 60 megabytes, and my client applications (like ArcGIS) do not handle that very well. Options: - would compressing (gzip/zip) help at all? - you could write a mapscript WxS wrapper (see http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/wxs_mapscript) to intercept a GetFeature request (say, catching outputformat=shape), and transform the GML response to a shapefile. I'm guessing folks have done similar things w.r.t. shapefile clip/download functionality. ..Tom Thank you, Maarten Plieger ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
Re: [mapserver-users] Postgis query
If you turn on statement logging in pgsql, you can see what SQL mapserver is sending to pgsql. That will clarify if there is a way for you to change your statement to get what you want, or if there's an error in what mapserver is asking for, or an error in how mapserver is processing what is returned to it.

Re: [mapserver-users] I need ur help (plz urgent)
Ques 1: Not sure how you get the regex error with [map]. That tag goes in the html template (e.g. input type=hidden name=map map=[map]) but note that it will only work IF you are setting map on the original call to MapServer. Ques 2: SAVEMAP is not switchable, you'd have to edit mapserv.c and recompile. Steve Amiya Patra [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/02/08 12:30 AM Hello.. I am new to Mapserver. I have some raster files(tiff). I cant place the symbol within the created image. But legend is created. Somewhere I read that raster layer does not support Symbol. And also [map] tag is not working within HTML template. Error message is msEvalRegex(): Regular expression error. String ([map]) failed expression test. .I got that SAVEMAP must be switched on..But how ? I tried to send it via HTML hidden field but I did not get. Also if I write PROCESSING BANDs=1 2 3 then error message is like msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'modis'. drawGDAL(): Unable to access file. Attempt to classify 24bit image, this is unsupported. I got that by default output image is 8 bit. So I tried to delare Imagetype JPEG and also Proceesing dither =yes and also via output object .But ?? If I commented that line then image quality is very very bad. And also I need MYSQL connection with raster file notes. Please I need ur helpAnd I hope I will get response very soon.. Thank you.

Re: [mapserver-users] OUTPUTFORMAT shapefiles instead of GML2/GML3 with WFS?
Hi Maarten, no unfortunately not, there used to be talk about an OGR output driver, so that any OGR (write) format could be written, but this was never implemented. Geoserver does have this functionality. Would be nice to have this in Mapserver though. Best regards, Bart Hi all, Is it possible to configure mapserver in such a way that it returns shapefiles instead of GML from a WFS GetFeature request?

Re: [mapserver-users] Postgis query
I guess the problem resides in the use of INNER and LEFT joins. Also, the order of the tables is important. The first tables specified in a query within the joins must be the ones which stablish the records agrupation or discrimination.

RE: [mapserver-users] ICON Placing co-ordinates.....SOLVED
Thanks - I hadn't spotted that. Mapfile section now has STATUS OFF. Robert Fawcett, David [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/12/2008 10:12 a.m. If you set the layer status to ON or OFF, your 'gps_point' layer won't show up on the map (at the default, unintended location) until you add the layer name explicitly in your URL call.

I was just about to post a message that I had solved it. Last time I was dealing with annotation. This time a GPS point reprojected into x,y. This is what works: Map file: LAYER NAME 'gps_point' STATUS DEFAULT TYPE POINT FEATURE # This is where you specify position on the map - using a default value POINTS 1748411 5427899 END END CLASS STYLE SYMBOL marker END END END URL: http://10.65.192.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?mode=maplayers=linz_orthos+crs_parcels+gps_pointmap.layer[gps_point]=FEATURE+POINTS+1748637.58606+5439001.11023+END+ENDMINX=1747637.58606MINY=5438001.11023MAXX=1749637.58606MAXY=5440001.11023mapsize=1200+1200 regards, Robert Fawcett, David [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/12/2008 10:01 a.m. Robert, I thought that I remembered posting an example to fix a similar issue and went back into the archives to find it. Funny thing, it was a thread that you started! The solution was to create the feature on the fly through a URL configuration. http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-users/2008-September/057900.html If you can use the URL vars in the points obj, that would be nice and clean...

Many thanks, Robert Sanson Steve Lime [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/12/2008 6:20 a.m. You'd use the icon as a symbol like so: LAYER NAME 'TheIcon' STATUS DEFAULT TYPE POINT FEATURE # This is where you specify position on the map POINTS x y END END CLASS STYLE SYMBOL 2.gif END END END Steve On 12/1/2008 at 11:08 PM, in message [EMAIL PROTECTED], Vikas KM [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi.. i have loaded a tiff image on mapserver and placed an ICON on that... but the thing i can't get the icon placed at the required co-ordinates its taking the extent as its reference..? my Map File --- MAP NAME Tiff Image SIZE 1900 1200 EXTENT 0.0 0.0 1920.0 1200.0 SHAPEPATH /home/nms/mapserverdemo/tif/data/ IMAGETYPE JPEG WEB TEMPLATE /home/nms/mapserverdemo/tif/tif.html IMAGEPATH /home/nms/mapserverdemo/tif/ IMAGEURL /tif/ END LAYER STATUS default TYPE RASTER DATA 1.tif END#END LAYER LAYER STATUS default TYPE RASTER /// size of the icon is 800,500 DATA 2.gif END#END LAYER END#END MAPFILE how to I place an icon at x,y given position on the reference map... that is 1.tif -- Regards Vikas KM ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users -- The contents of this email are confidential to AsureQuality.
