Hi Guys and Girls, After an embarrassingly protracted google session, im not doing so well. What i need is to turn a shapefile (from a trimble device) into a png as part of a web app. Ideally it would be the simplist lightest tool/s that can do the job, bearing in mind that im working in

Peter, Ok, this is all going to sound a bit heavy (to use your words), but in the end you'll have a lot more flexibilty with the end toolset. I would suggest loading the SHP file data into a Database, Mysql would work, but POSTGIS would be better. Then source that Spatial data via MapServer

Hi Peter, if you plan to have more shape files in the future you can use MapServer + Gdal. If you use Linux, GDAL and MapServer are pretty easy to install... it integrates very well with Google Maps and it can read any format supported by gdal. hope that helps.. regards On Mon, Aug 16, 2010

[OSGeo-Discuss] Publishing huge Oracle GeoRasters

Hi All, I'm looking for a good tool to publish huge Oracle GeoRasters. The options that I have explored so far are: GeoServer: I was not able to make it work with GeoRasters MapViewer: very Trivial to use but it is not open source. MapServer+GDAL + TileCache/MapProxy: great combination but I am

Sebastian, I¹d say that improvements to GDAL would be the best option here. I know that Ivan Lucena, who wrote the GDAL GeoRaster driver and has been working with you on debugging, could make changes once the exact issue has been discovered. This would improve mapserver, Geoserver and any other

There is lots of documentation[2] and even a book[3]. Definition of a heavy app: one that requires a book. ;-) Honestly it sounds scalable, robust, all round good, and ill take the thing to bed with me for the next month, really, im a map freak. MapServer is not so much a complete server,

Peter, You want light and easy to start developing your WMS in Windows or in Linux. Get OpenGeo Suite. http://opengeo.org/ # PostGIS # GeoServer # GeoWebCache # OpenLayers # GeoExt Recent version of the Community Edition is 2.1.2. http://opengeo.org/community/suite/download/ Read the WMS

Thanks for the OpenGeo Suite shout out, but at 250 megs for the download, installing a full database and webserver, I think it's about the furthest thing from light on this list. Hoping to get it to the point where it's a cloud deployment and you could just make what you want to do a handful

BTW, QGIS has mapserver export plugin that exports *.map file and at this time save your layers (e.g. shapefile, etc.) in various format (png, jpeg, agg, etc) and open your mapserver to see web map. Noli On 8/17/10, Mike Toews mwto...@gmail.com wrote: On 16 August 2010 15:39, Peter
