[mapserver-users] COMPOSITE filters available?
Hello, I am trying to get the hang of the new COMPOSITE feature in Mapserver 7. Are there any actual filters, such as blur(), in the main codebase yet? Or is that forthcoming? Also, I could not find any documentation on manipulating the COMPOSITE object from Mapscript. Is this possible? -- Avi Blackmore Head Programmer/System Administrator Satshot Inc. ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Thanks for the advice. I was already using GeoTIFFs with internal tiling, and compression. The issue turned out to be a bad directive in the mapfile. Our Mapscript application was misconfigured to set LOAD_WHOLE_IMAGE=yes in the processing directives for small-area imagery. I don't recall why this was done, but I changed it, and now the images load fine in tiled mode. Thanks for your help. -- Avi Blackmore Head Programmer/System Administrator Satshot Inc. ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
[mapserver-users] Very poor WMS tiling performance with small area, ultra-high resolution image
Hello, We've been using Mapserver as, among other things, a WMS server for some time with satellite and aerial imagery, without problems. We've been able to serve imagery of resolutions down to .25 meters without any significant performance hit. Today, we got a sample image from a new source, which has a resolution of 0.06 meters. The image is 317 megabytes in size, and has dimensions of 17538 x 19035 pixels. The file size is smaller than many of the Landsat or other images that we have displayed in the past. However, we're finding that rendering this image is extremely expensive. In particular, with tiled access, a la Google Maps, the WMS requests bog down our server to the point where all of its memory is consumed. I know that overviews, tiling, and such, are good strategies for reducing the render time on a large area, reasonably high resolution image. But what would be good strategies for improving rendering time on this smaller, ultra-high resolution image? -- Avi Blackmore Head Programmer/System Administrator Satshot Inc. ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

[mapserver-users] Paletted GeoTIFF output in 6.4 not working?
Hello, I've been using Mapserver to (among many other things) classify rasters for years. I would output GeoTIFFs in 8-bit, paletted mode using a custom output format definition, which I defined as follows: OUTPUTFORMAT NAME GTiff2 MIMETYPE image/tiff DRIVER GDAL/GTiff EXTENSION tif IMAGEMODE PC256 TRANSPARENT FALSE END This worked for years with versions of Mapserver ranging from 4.4 up to 5.6. Recently, I decided to test an upgrade to 6.4, and I have found that this no longer works. The imagemode declaration is ignored and coerced back to RGB mode, which is unsuitable for our purposes. What is the proper way to get Mapserver to output 8-bit palletted GeoTIFFs using raster classification in 6.4? Or, is this no longer possible? I hope not, because I really want to use 6.4 in production, it has some great new features. -- Avi Blackmore Head Programmer/System Administrator Agri ImaGIS Technologies, Inc. ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
