[mapserver-users] Reference map depicted area extent line width
Hi, When making region based queries for reference maps, is there a way to change the line width (or style preferences in general) of the area of interest rectangle depicted on the reference map?

RE: [mapserver-users] OGR data layer type - points and lines
Ian, I thought that there was a pretty simple answer to this, but it seems as though I have imagined some non-existing functionality. Assuming that you have a Spatialite db containing a point data set, and you have a MapServer layer that draws this, I think that I have a solution for you. (This also assumes that OGR supports reading linestrings from Spatialite). PostGIS has the ST_MakeLine() function that allows you to create linestrings out of point geometries. The current version of Spatialite doesn't have anything like this (although since I have mentioned it on the Spatialite list, it could be there soon...) So, this SQL employs some workarounds, but may work: SELECT LineFromText('LINESTRING(' || group_concat(X(geometry) || ' ' || Y(geometry), ',') || ')') FROM datapoints ORDER BY fix_date; If performance is a problem, I would build a Spatialite line dataset and rebuild it every time your point dataset changes.

If you want to draw lines you have to create a data source the returns lines not points. The problem is that mapserver draws features and each point is a feature. It does not have a mechanism that can read a data source and aggregate the point features into a single line feature. I have seen posts on the PostGIS list for SQL that can do this. You might ask on the GDAL list if there is a way to do this. Or if you can use PostGIS, then you can find the SQL in the archives or ask again. -Steve W On 12/16/2010 1:00 AM, Ian Walberg wrote: Hello list, Using an OGR connection to an sqlite data file we can get point and labels to draw successfully.

RE: [mapserver-users] OGR data layer type - points and lines
I guess I spoke a little too soon... When I attempted to test this data definition, I got a mapserv.exe crash. I am using a recent version of MSW4. Also, in looking a little bit at the OGR driver page for sqlite: http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_sqlite.html, I am guessing that the driver can't use spatialite's native binary geometry storage format when it is used to build a geom on the fly. Based on that, I think that creating a wkt geom may be the way to go. Something like this (which still crashes mapserv.exe). DATA select 'LINESTRING(' || group_concat(X(geometry) || ' ' || Y(geometry), ',') || ')' AS wkt_geometry from turtle_points This sample is also very simple in that the line vertices aren't being ordered and the assumption is that you want one line from all of the points in your dataset.

RE: [mapserver-users] OGR data layer type - points and lines
Steve, I need to do some more testing before I can report a bug. I have both OSGEO4W and MS4W installed on this machine and I was actually using the MapServer (5.4) from MS4W. I want to get a clean install and test before reporting this as a bug. I have a Spatialite point layer (turtle_points) that that draws using an OGR connection. In an attempt to simplify the problem of drawing a line layer that is generated on the fly, I tried to flop my point data to WKB and draw that. When I use this SQL for my data statement, I get a MapServer crash too. select AsBinary(geometry) from turtle_points I have playing with Spatialite for some time now, but hadn't yet combined my interests in MapServer and Spatialite. I will continue to play with this over time when I can. If anyone else has been experimenting with Spatialite dbs as data sources for MapServer, I would love to hear about it.

[mapserver-users] OUTPUTFORMAT PDF rendering issue
Hello Folks, I was wondering whether someone may be able to help me. I'm currently trying to set up a WMS to create a topographic base map of New Zealand using Mapserver. So far, things are going ok, but have run into an issue when trying to get things into a format for high quality hardcopy printing (vector PDF). The issue arises with 'spikey' rendering of polygons when using Mapserver to output to PDF. When outputting as an image (PNG), the maps are drawn correctly, but when choosing PDF, the output looks sort of generalised and inaccurate. The data I'm testing with is a polygon version of the coastline of NZ, at a 1:5 scale - stored in a PostGIS database. I have played around with the mapfile settings of RESOLUTION in combination with SIZE - when using the default RESOLUTION of 72, the output is spikey, as described, but as I increase this number - the output gets progressively better. When I increase this to a very large number (16000) (with a SIZE of 9600 9600) - the output I get looks to be closer to the original dataset, devoid of spikes. I may be missing something obvious, so apologies if I am, but is this the correct way of getting a high quality output to PDF? I have tried this with the latest version of Mapserver - 5.6.5 and also with the latest SVN version built with support for using the CAIRO rendering library. Mapserver is built on Ubuntu 10. Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks Andy ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
