Hi,
The vendor specific filters are listed in the WFS GetCapabilities. Try
https://demo.geo-solutions.it/geoserver/wfs?service=WFS&version=2.0.0&request=GetCapabilities
and you will find a lot of filters, including “Nearest”. I do not know the
exact syntax to use in WFS filter but perhaps Andr
Hi,
My point is that defaults may be fine as long as everything goes right. But
when you need to find out what goes wrong it is much easier if projections are
explicitly set. Especially if you are at your customers site or you are trying
to give help through the mailing list when the mapfile an
Very subtle Jeff. :c)
I was thinking about a "Gotcha" page in the documentation. There a few of
these same sort of MapServer gothchas that could be included up high in the
docs table of contents.

Hello,
Just to add in my two cents to this.
1) I don’t think we should have to specify a projection at the and
level if they are the same as that would seem redundant to me.
However, it should be allowed if a user wants to specify the projection at both
levels.

So, the last meeting was interesting in that we went virtual with it for the
first time. All in all it worked out very well. We even had a few out of
towners show up. We presented a couple of short presentations that seemed to be
of interest to the group based on the questions raised.

All,
I can second Steve’s idea. We were using Mapserver for years before we needed
to pay attention to projections, because all of our data wasin our local
coordinate system. We now work projection across all map services for all
layers, either by explicitly stating the projection or having

the order? If so I don't know of a way to affect that order.

I would prefer to pursue as a documentation/communication exercise first.
It's not that I don't agree that PROJECTION blocks are generally
recommended but making them required and introducing artificial projections
to deal with cases when projections aren't used (embedded legends, scale

Hi,
The DWithin function in WFS is a true/false function just like the equivalent
PostGIS function https://postgis.net/docs/ST_DWithin.html. You can’t find the
nearest feature with DWithin. A not so good workaround is to increase the
distance until the result is not empty.
Mapserver does not h
Hi,
Following the topic about another question that I sent, I'm using a
Getfeature WFS request with a DWITHIN spatial filter to returns the closes
feature of a layer given some specific coordinates. The request works fine,
but when there are several features that match the filter it doesn't

Hi Jukka,
I personally consider defining PROJECTION blocks at the MAP level and
all LAYERs mandatory, in my day-to-day work, for each and every mapfile.
If you do not specify all of these, MapServer makes assumptions and
you are just asking for trouble downstream through WMS clients etc.

Hi,
Recent Mapserver buids require PROJ and GDAL
https://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/ja/development/rfc/ms-rfc-127.html. That means
that every Mapserver can support PROJECTION blocks both at the MAP level and
within LAYER. And because there are no more builds without Proj support there
is no real ne
