Good point, I did have the extent in meters but that did not work.

Should these work?

Steve,



The map file below draws a non Mercator projection and if the epsg:4326 line is 
uncommented then the map is blank.



This is on a windows machine using Mapserver 7.0.7 from MS4W 3.2.6.



Any ideas?



Thanks

[mapserver-users] WFS server setup with sqlite data

[Ian Walberg]

Folks,

We have a working WFS setup on our linux servers which has the sqlite database 
table as the value in the DATA field.

However when we run this on Windows we get no data returned.

In the logs there is a number of what appear to be warnings however it looks 
like no matching records were found.

msOGRFileNextShape: Rejecting feature (shapeid = 0, tileid=0) of incompatible 
type for this layer (feature wkbType 0, layer type 1)
msQueryByRect(): Search returned no results. No matching record(s) found.

Changing the DATA filed to be ‘select * from table’ works ok on windows.

Any help working out what the cause of the problem is appreciated.

Thanks, Ian

I haven't seen the libs-physically-disappear case, but I often reboot client 
servers and the libs 'cannot be found' (meaning executing mapserv doesn't 
search for the libs in the proper directory of /usr/local/lib/). 
  In this case the solution is to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to that directory for 
your profile (this step changes for different linux
flavors) and then re-run 'sudo ldconfig'.

As a side note, for good karma please refrain from sending your questions to 
multiple mailing lists at the same time.  Thanks,

Folks,

We build and install from source any of the recent versions using cmake.

Then we copy the mapserv binary from /usr/local/bin to /var/www/cgi-bin to use 
with our apache install.

All is good unless we reboot and the libs in /usr/local/lib are removed, this 
is a Fedora 19 server.

correct. the position of "center of the text" varies depending on whether your 
glyphs have ascenders and/or descenders, and thus produces inconsistent 
centering between "aaa", "ppp" or "".
This can be easily reverted by commenting out the two special cases for CR and 
CL at https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/blob/rel-7-0-3/maplabel.c#L989 . 
replace with
y1 = (h/2.0) + oy;

Thomas had posted on the topic almost a year ago:

  https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-dev/2015-September/014598.html

I don't think there was a great deal of response. I was able to get things 
compiled and kinda working with the Leaflet MVT client.

  http://maps2.dnr.state.mn.us/dev/mvt/test.html

The example uses fixed x/y/z tile (13/1954/2855), hence the repetition. 
MapCache doesn't support MVT so I created the vector tile using a WFS request. 
I got stuck trying to figure out why the vectors for Dishpan WMA and the 
polygon to along the right edge of the tile didn't align better with the 
underlying raster tile - they were generated from the same params. Clearly 
Thomas' code is capable of producing something that a client can render.

Re: [mapserver-users] WFS - featureid/resourceid

[Ian Walberg]

That did not seem to make any difference, can you tell from here what output 
types should work?

http://wfs-dev.airborne.aero/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/wfs/WFS_TEST.map=WFS=2.0.0=GetCapabilities

Thanks

Try adding GML as a format option to see if you are able to get a result that 
way:

"wfs_getfeature_formatlist" "gml,geojson"

Well it looks like your map file settings are fine, and a correctly formatted 
URL would be:

http://wfs-dev.airborne.aero/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/wfs/WFS_TEST.map=WFS=2.0.0=GetFeature_ID=urn:ogc:def:query:OGC-WFS::GetFeatureById=DATA_TEST.1
However the resulting error message indicates that something may else may be 
amiss:

msQueryByFilter(): Search returned no results. No matching record(s) found.
LayerDefaultTranslateFilter(): General error message. This data driver does not 
implement filter translation support

Ian

you may have to enable the GetFeatureById option in your mapfile as at the 
moment it looks like you have it turned off.
Put something like this in the LAYER block to enable all WFS requests:

"wfs_enable_request" "*"
From there you can begin to test with:

http://wfs-dev.airborne.aero/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/wfs/WFS_TEST.map=WFS=2.0.0=GetFeatureById
And the server will tell you what other parameters you need to add to the URL 
in order to successfully return a record.

No - it seems the result could return successfully in either format, so the 
server config is fine.
What is the data storage format? perhaps that is the driver that is reporting 
the error...

Hi Ian,

This would be a very useful enhancement, to help managing mapfile layers.  
Would you file a ticket for this?  (just so the idea is not lost in email 
archives)  Once the ticket is filed, we can apply the "Enhancement" label: here 
is a list of the open enhancements

Folks,

We would like to include multiple map files using a wildcard filename.

Can this be done today?

If not can we add this to the feature enhancement wish list?

try to get it through your mapfile!  base on what I read here 
http://mapserver.org/input/vector/ogr.html#using-ogr-data-sources-in-the-map-file,
you'll supposed to be able to add an SQL in DATA tag for any OGR data source,

Try with FID field, OGR generate this ID for you. But you should try use your 
own ID field for consistency between version of your data (if needed). I tested 
with my demo data and I can select FID even if it doesn't exist in source file.

Jeff,

Many thanks that worked great.

Next is there any way of getting the row ID as part of the data passed to 
mapserver?

We are planning to serve this data as a WFS layer.

Simon is right, very nice, specifying the field name to classify in the vrt 
works, for a csv without field names:

Re: [mapserver-users] RE OGR csv - no field names

Thanks for the ideas.

I think the vrt file needs the csv fields to have names unless I misunderstand.

CSVT file – does this specify the column/field data type? Can the name be 
specified as well?

[mapserver-users] OGR csv - no field names









Folks,

Can a csv file with no field names as the first row be used as an OGR source?

GDAL creates dummy field names, are these passed to mapserver?

OGRFeature(USA-Hilton):652
 field_1 (String) = -74.16958
 field_2 (String) =  40.73526
 field_3 (String) =  Penn Station

What do we need in the layer to make this work?

LABELITEM 'name' - this throws an error, 'field_3' does not seem to work either.
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION 'Stations.csv'

Thanks

Re: [mapserver-users] WFS layer - XML/JSON safe chars

Jukka,

If I understand the problem correctly I have changed the "gml_featureid"  field 
to use the "id' field in the database.

This now displays correctly in the browser and the text field with the '&' 
displays correctly.

http://wfs-dev.airborne.aero/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/wfs/WFS_TEST.map=WFS=1.1.0=GetFeature=DATA_TEST

http://wfs-dev.airborne.aero/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/wfs/WFS_TEST.map=WFS=1.1.0=GetFeature=DATA_TEST2

We now need to check this with our application to make sure the data fields is 
good.

Found a way for controlling gml:id, it is in the documentation 
http://mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_server.html

wfs_featureid
(Required for MapServer 4.10) Field to be used for the ID of the feature in 
the output GML. gml_featureid or ows_featureid can be specified instead.

The default behavior is not documented but I guess that if wfs_featureid or 
ows_featureid are not defined then primary key is used instead, and if there is 
no primary key then heaven knows which field. I think that we should somehow  
emphasize the importance of wfs_featureid and recommend strongly to use an 
unique integer field.

What you need to do is to make sure that you have an integer field with unique 
values in your table and add this to your LAYER METADATA. WFS probably works 
even if field is not unique but for example GetFeatureById needs unique id:s.

"wfs_featureid" "my_unique_integer_column"

Hi,

You do not need to understand GML or WFS, we must just get the configuration 
right.

How have you created your table? Spatialite-gui has a tool in the right click 
menu "Show CREATE statement" or you can use SQL command PRAGMA 
table_info('name_of_your_table'). Send the output or check at least what you 
have as Primary Key (pk).

I believe that if you creat the table to have primary key column like PK_UID 
here your problem with gml:id disappears.

CREATE TABLE "states" (
"PK_UID" INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, "STATE_NAME" TEXT, "STATE_FIPS" 
TEXT,

Ogr2ogr makes such PK by default and so does the import tools of Spatialite-gui.

I think we may be taking about different things, the wfs requests below show 
the problem we are seeing.

There are 2 cities in each of the sqlite databases and the only difference is 
on has the text 'and' and the other has the symbol '&'

Aihe: Re: [mapserver-users] WFS layer - XML/JSON safe chars

Folks,

I think we may be taking about different things, the wfs requests below show 
the problem we are seeing.

There are 2 cities in each of the sqlite databases and the only difference is 
on has the text 'and' and the other has the symbol '&'

Layer DATA_TEST - INSERT INTO "test" VALUES('-14.235004','-51.92528','Rio and 
Paulo');

http://wfs-dev.airborne.aero/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/wfs/WFS_TEST.map=WFS=1.1.0=GetFeature=DATA_TEST


Layer DATA_TEST2 - INSERT INTO "test" VALUES('-14.235004','-51.92528','Rio & 
Paulo');

http://wfs-dev.airborne.aero/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/wfs/WFS_TEST.map=WFS=1.1.0=GetFeature=DATA_TEST2


So our question is do the strings in database need to be xml safe or does 
mapserver check that the strings are safe before serving.

Thanks

Ian

We are probably talking about different things.

, I have just fixed issues in GetCapabilities response generation, but your 
issues might be different.

I've also just tested reading from a CSV (the input datastore type shouldn't
matter) file a field with & and it is properly escaped as  in the GML 
output of WFS 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0

Without a mapfile + data + request you issue, it is difficult to be sure we're 
talking about the same thing.

Re: [mapserver-users] WFS layer - XML/JSON safe chars

[Ian Walberg]

If I understand this we would not get the issue if we use a WFS version 1.0.0 
request.

We have just tested that and it appears that changing the version does not 
change the behavior.

This is with mapserver version 7.0.1.

Thanks

Ian

WMS and WFS 1.0 use MapServer manual XML composition with its own XML escaping 
routines. Some other services (such as WFS 1.1 & 2.0) use libxml (sometimes not 
in an appropriate way).

Jukka,

Let us test again today, we are also using a spatialite DB.

Subject: Re: WFS layer - XML/JSON safe chars

Hi,

I was thinking that the output of GetCapabilities is XML and & must be escaped 
in XML. So if I write & into the abstract and Mapserver works correctly it 
should write my test abstract “test ä &”  escaped perhaps as
test  
That is the output from the online tool at 
http://www.freeformatter.com/xml-escape.html#ad-output

So my conclusion was that because Mapserver does not do it right here it won’t 
do it right elsewhere.

But now I made another test by editing the Geoserver test file “states.shp” in 
Spatialite as
UPDATE states set STATE_NAME=’Colo’ WHERE STATE_NAME=’Colorado’;

Output of GetFeature from WFS 1.1.0 from Mapserver 7.0.0  includes
 Colorado

So my current conclusion is that my Mapserver does not escape “&” correctly 
when it is used inside a mapfile and when I do GetCapabilities request. 
However, when data come from Spatialite database and they are consumed by 
GetFeature then escaping happens correctly.

We are still comparing different things because you have PostGIS and I have 
Spatialite.

Hi Ian,

Thanks for the clarification.
I made a simple test by adding an abstract into layer metadata. This shows 
“test ä” as an abstract
"wfs_abstract" "test ä”

This one shows an empty abstract
"wfs_abstract" "test ä &"

So it looks like Mapserver doesn’t know to convert “&” into “” for XML.

Hi,

You can’t have & in feature type names or attribute names in WFS because they 
are defined in the XML schema to be “QName”. The prefix and LocalPart are of 
type NCName https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QName and from 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1631396/what-is-an-xsncname-type-and-when-should-it-be-used

The practical restrictions of NCName are that it cannot contain several symbol 
characters like :, @, $, %, &, /, +, ,, ;, whitespace characters or different 
parenthesis. Furthermore an NCName cannot begin with a number, dot or minus 
character although they can appear later in an NCName.

Folks,

Using PHP Mapscript it appears that when PostLabelCache is set to '1' for a 
label layer this causes the label text not to display.

With a map file this works as expected.

Looking in the mapscript/php source directory there are mutiple '#ifdef 
disabled' around the labelcache functions.

Is anyone aware of this? Should I raise an issue?

[mapserver-users] PHP Mapscript - setting PostLabelCache stops text displaying

[Ian Walberg]

Folks,

Using PHP Mapscript it appears that when PostLabelCache is set to '1' for a 
label layer this causes the label text not to display.

With a map file this works as expected.

Looking in the mapscript/php source directory there are mutiple '#ifdef 
disabled' around the labelcache functions.

Is anyone aware of this? Should I raise an issue?

Thanks, Ian

[mapserver-users] Memory leak

[Ian Walberg]

Posting to mapserver users as well as dev list.

Folks,

We have a php application which renders a new map every few seconds and with 
any of the versions with the refactored label font support we see what appears 
to be a memory leak.

When our application exits the error is 'Freetype was unable to load font 
file'. This is from fontcache.c and occurs in our case after around 130 calls 
to the msGetFontFace function.

I will look into this further but from a quick look it seems that the 
FT_New_Face is being called every time.

Our application uses only one font so our assumption is that this should not 
need to be called every time.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Ian

Another beta should be along soon (within a week?). Feedback/testing has been 
pretty slow to come thus far... The more of that we get the faster the release 
process will go.

Could you open a github issue for this one, and include a minimal mapfile that 
would allow me to reproduce the issue locally.

 With different first and last points I get the line drawn and the

 Then msSmallMalloc(): Out of memory allocating -8 bytes.

 We are happy to look further but any guidance to where to look would be great.

 With mapsever 6.4.1 the line does not get drawn when the points are the same 
 but does not give a malloc error.

 One quick thing to do would be to take OGR out of the mix. Just set up a

 Then try to draw... If this fails then it's a MapServer issue.

Added CONFIG CPL_DEBUG ON and have the layer debug on.

It just looked like there was more debug available in the source which was no

How do I add a text label to the feature in this case?

Removing the label from my problem layer stops the error occurring.

I used points for the feature data rather than the WKT string but seem to have 
got the same condition.

  -110.220887 38.982863
  -110.221614 38.982708
  -110.220980 38.982832
END
TEXT Testing
  END

With first and last point the same I get no shape details and nothing drawn on 
the map and no malloc error.

FEATURE
POINTS
  -110.220982 38.982832
  -110.220887 38.982863
  -110.221614 38.982708
  -110.220980 38.982832
END
TEXT Testing
  END

With different first and last points I get the line drawn and the following 
debug :-

[Thu Aug 14 08:47:10 2014].339760 Shape contains 1 parts.
[Thu Aug 14 08:47:10 2014].339777   Part 0 contains 2 points.

Then msSmallMalloc(): Out of memory allocating -8 bytes.

We are happy to look further but any guidance to where to look would be great.

With mapsever 6.4.1 the line does not get drawn when the points are the same 
but does not give a malloc error.

Thanks

Devs,

The MULTILINE string below gives the following in mapprimitive.c and then as 
the first shape has 0 points the msSmallMalloc fails as the size passed to it 
is -8.

[Wed Aug 13 07:55:10 2014].618971 Shape contains 2 parts.

Any clues what we should look at next?

This same source data file and layer work with older versions of mapserver 6.

 I used points for the feature data rather than the WKT string but seem to 
 have got the same condition.

 I have added the debug line to the source to use the msPrintShape in the

 With first and last point the same I get no shape details and nothing drawn 
 on the map and no malloc error.

 With different first and last points I get the line drawn and the 
 following debug :-

 [Thu Aug 14 08:47:10 2014].339760 Shape contains 1 parts.
 [Thu Aug 14 08:47:10 2014].339777   Part 0 contains 2 points.

 Then msSmallMalloc(): Out of memory allocating -8 bytes.

 We are happy to look further but any guidance to where to look would be great.

 With mapsever 6.4.1 the line does not get drawn when the points are the same 
 but does not give a malloc error.

 One quick thing to do would be to take OGR out of the mix. Just set up a 
 mapfile with the feature in question as a WKT inline feature. Something like:

 LAYER
   NAME 'badwkt'
   TYPE LINE
   STATUS DEFAULT
   FEATURE
 WKT ' MULTILINESTRING ((-110.220980 38.982832, -110.220887 38.982863, 
 -110.221614 38.982708, -110.220980 38.982832),(-110.220980 38.982832, 
 -110.220887 38.982863, -110.221614 38.982708, -110.220980 38.982832))'
   END
   CLASS
 STYLE COLOR 0 0 0 END
   END
 END

 Then try to draw... If this fails then it's a MapServer issue.

[mapserver-users] Scalebar transparency

[Ian Walberg]

We use php mapscript and have always struggled to understand how to get the 
scale bar transparent. What seemed to be the case was if we set the png output 
type to transparent and the scale bar to transparent we got a transparent 
background ok. The image in this case will be a 32 bit RGBA png so larger than 
ideal but it did work.

However if we set the output type to jpg we could not get a transparent 
scalebar via php mapsrcipt.

Using a map file and the cgi mapserv we can get a transparent scale bar 
background for both png's and jpeg's.

The current documentation says that the transparent setting in the scalebar 
object is depreciated and the output format setting should be used.

So we are confused.

Should it be possible via php mapscript to get a jpg format output and a 
scalebar with a transparent background? We assume yes as this is possible with 
a map file.

[mapserver-users] UTF8 - direction control characters

[Ian Walberg]

Folks,

 

We are trying to display labels with UTF8 direction control characters
in them and we are seeing boxes in the text.

 

For example inserting a RLE code does seem to change the rendering order
as expected but also displays a box.

 

Our guess is that the control character has not been removed when the
text is rendered so gets rendered as an unknown character.

 

We are happy to look into this in more detail but could do with some
guidance on where to look.

 

Thanks

Re: [mapserver-users] [mapserver-dev] Rendering Hindi Characters

[Ian Walberg]

Steve,

I will raise an issue to track this and we will be looking into it in more 
detail.

From the research we have done so far I am not sure that it is an issue with 
fribidi as my understanding that this just addresses the l-r and r-l ordering 
issues.

What we believe is that the mapserver text rendering pipeline cannot support 
the more complex character layouts required in some cases for Hinidi and other 
languages.

Ian,

As I mentioned before, I think this is an issue with fribidi or the font that 
you are using. I have seen nothing that indicates that this is a mapserver 
problem other than the implied suggestion that maybe mapserver should find a 
different library to solve this issue.

Did you post this issue on the fribidi list?
Did you post the response back here?

I saw that you tried the text in other windows products and it works. I can 
appreciate your frustration with this fact, but this does not in itself mean 
the mapserver is broken. We rely on fribidi and the selected font to generate 
the correct glyphs for rendering. If the gylphs are not rendered correctly 
there are a few possibilities:

1. a bug in mapserver - not likely as we have plenty of working examples using 
multiple other languages 2. a bug/limitation in fribidi 3. a font file with 
missing or broken glyphs.

In most cases of rendering problems that we have seen to date have been 
problems with fonts. The fribidi list has been helpful identifying good fonts 
for specific languages.

If you want to file a bug on the mapserver site, goto http://mapserver.org/ and 
follow the link on the top right of the page to the issue tracker. You will 
need to supply a test case that demonstrates the problem and some graphics so 
non hindi readers can see what is bad and what is expected.

Without some more clear evidence that this is a mapserver problem, I'm not sure 
this will get much action.

I am sympathetic, as I ran into a similar issue with Arabic a few years ago and 
had to do this whole dance with fribidi to understand the issues and identify a 
font that resolved the issues.

 Hello again list,

 The Hindi rendering problem has come to the top of our priorities again and 
 we have been investigating the cause of the issue again.

 To recap the problem we are seeing can be reproduced easily, paste Mexico 
 City into google translate and then use the Hindi characters with any Unicode 
 font.

 The top (incorrect)  line of text is from mapserver and lower 
 (correct) line is from Excel in this image http://tinyurl.com/cs7pax5

  From the research we have done freetype does not know how to render all of 
 these characters together correctly. It does appear that pango can be 
 configured to render them correctly.

 I have not yet dived into the details of the rendering pipeline and I hope 
 that someone can jump in and confirm we have a real issue and there is not 
 something stupid we have done.

 Many thanks

 Subject: Re: [mapserver-users] Rendering Hindi Characters

 FYI, Mapserver does not do anything for rendering text except:

 1. pass the text to fribidi which converts a utf8 sequence of characters into 
 a displayable sequence of characters.

 2. mapserver then passes that to the text rendering function of whatever 
 renderer you are using.

 Mapserver does not try to understand it, it totally relies on the underlying 
 rendering code to do the right thing whatever that is.

 Thomas Bonfort might have some more insight into this as he re-engineer a lot 
 of the rendering pipeline and it might be helpful to know what code is doing 
 the actual text rendering. It used to be freetype and may still be.

 I'm also not convinced the fribidi is not the right place for this to happen 
 regardless as it is responsible for taking a sequence of characters and 
 generating an displayable sequence that can be rendered correctly given the 
 correct font.

Thomas,

 

I had not found this and it does fill in the gaps in our understanding of where 
the problem lies.

 

My assessment is that the current mapserver text render pipeline will not 
render the most complex characters correctly and needs updating.

 

We are happy to be involved in this process and can provide development 
assistance once the preferred approach is agreed.

 

Do you have a recommendation? Can we use just HarfBuzz or do we need Pango to 
pull everything together?

Steve,

I will raise an issue to track this and we will be looking into it in more 
detail.

From the research we have done so far I am not sure that it is an issue with 
fribidi as my understanding that this just addresses the l-r and r-l ordering 
issues.

What we believe is that the mapserver text rendering pipeline cannot support 
the more complex character layouts required in some cases for Hinidi and other

[mapserver-users] Lat/Long to WGS84 image co-ordinate conversion

[Ian Walberg]

Folks,

 

I am sure this is the wrong list and I am sure I will describe what we
need wrongly but please be gentle J

 

We are using full up mapserver installations for a number of projects
and now need to build a small application which uses map tiles with city
labels displayed on the tiles.


The application has to be written in native QT/QML and we cannot see a
way of using something like OpenLayers to display the labels.

 

So here is the real question, how do we take the sqlite databases we
have an generate the tile X Y Z and pixel x/y for each city using
existing utilities? We were hoping one of the GDAL or OGR utils did this
but cannot work out which or how.

 

Thanks

Some more info, this issue has the same symptoms as we have. The initial

issue we are seeing.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4153

Hi Thomas,

I was able to properly render the Hindi characters from the screenshot
you had previously provided (Wazirabad), however we are still unable to
render the Hindi text that I had provided earlier (Mexico City).

Is there any way you could provide an image showing a Hindi translation

Re: [mapserver-users] [mapserver-dev] WMS layers - using port otherthan 80

[Ian Walberg]

Jukka,

The problem does appear to be that the GetCapabilitiesUrl is correct and the 
GetMapUrl and the GetFeatureInfoUrl values have the port set twice.

GetCapabilitiesUrl http://192.168.2.160:16001/cgi-bin ..
GetMapUrl http://192.168.2.160:16001:16001/cgi-bin .
GetFeatureInfoUrl http://192.168.2.160:16001:16001/cgi-bin ...

Where do I correct this?

Not sure if this is a mapserver wms setup question or a QGIS user question.

Hi,

I had a try with QGIS dev. and default Geoserver installation running on 
localhost:8080. No trouble at all with WMS.
One thing I would check is if your Mapserver is sending correct onlineresource 
for including the correct port with the GetCapabilities. You can override the 
announced GetMap url in the QGIS WMS dialogue so that it will use the same URL 
as used for making the connection with QGIS but that is not the default.

Hi,

You can define your own outputformat for AGG/JPEG and use formatoption
quality
http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/outputformat.html

I do not know if variable substitution works in this place so that users
could add an extra parameter to the request as QUALITY=100 but you can
have a try. At least you can make new outputformats with different

Not sure about clustering, but there may be other options as well:

You might be able to simply use POSITION AUTO and give these labels a
high priority. MapServer will place them. If you need markers in this
case you'll need to draw those separately to avoid marker collisions.
So, one layer for points and the other for high-priority labels.
  
Version 6.2 supports multiple labels per feature. If you can
de-normalize your data so you have 1 point plus multiple columns of
companies (e.g. company1, company2, etc...) then you can use this
approach. There's also leader support when things get really tight.

Well on the one hand why do you care? Does this cause a problem in some

I would limit zooming based on scale or resolution.

The above would be my approach, but if you really want to do this, one
way to do this would be to setup the mapfile to do a query and then
query the layers you want to check for features based on the bbox of the
view and then check if you got any hits. But this can be potentially
much more expensive then drawing nothing in the case above.

It has been a while since I have used mapscript, but their might be a
return code that tells you if the layer drew anything (if not you might
want to write a ticket to add that.

You proposed method has the problem of scale dependencies, in the you
might have a situation where a some scale there is very little turned on
and it you stop zooming there, then you can never get to the scale where
other things get turned on. What you draw on any given scale is not
predictive of what you might draw at some other scale.

Think of a small island that is turned off because it is very small
until you get zoomed in. If you pan over the ocean to the vicinity of
the island and it is off, you would prevent zooming in to the point that
the it got turned on.

I would keep is simple, I think it will work better in the long run.

[mapserver-users] Detect featureless areas

[Ian Walberg]

Hello list,

 

We need to be able to detect when there are no features on a map and
limit the extent so that the user does not zoom in any further if there
is nothing to see.

 

This could be for example no labels or no vector data for the given
extent.

 

We are using php mapscript .

 

Any ideas how we can do this?

 

Thanks

[mapserver-users] Accessing images from remote servers

[Ian Walberg]

Hello list,

We need to build a mapserver application which is running on multiple
devices with limited local storage, because of this the imagery will
have to be  on a separate server.

The application we have today runs on a single server and we access the
imagery using tileindex shapefiles.

So the question is when we move everything but the imagery to the
individual devices can we access the imagery tileindex shapfiles
remotely? We currently limited experience of the WMS and WFS interfaces
but from a quick look these do not seem to allow us to access the
tileindex as we do locally.

Hope this makes sense and I look forward to some suggestions.

Many thanks

Re: [mapserver-users] Accessing images from remote servers

[Ian Walberg]

Thomas,

We are reviewing the options as part of this exercise but at the moment we were 
hoping to use http which was why WMS and WFS seemed appealing.

I am not familiar with FUSE mounted directories but I assume this would allow 
us to see the remote server as if it was in the local filesystem?

Regards

Ian

Ian,
What mechanism were you considering to access the remote data? Plain
tileindexes+shapefiles on a FUSE mounted directory should be
completely transparent from mapserver, and you get to choose which fuse 
mechanism to use to do the network mounting.

 Thomas,

 Our imagery data today is in a number of individual files and we use the 
 tileindex to allow the one layer to access whatever is available for that 
 area.

 If we use  WMS or WFS to access the imagery can we use the same setup for the 
 layer on the WMS server?
Sure, you'd be replicating your current tileindex'd setup on the central wms 
server. The individual clients requesting imagery from the central wms server 
do not need those tileindexes, for them it's a black box providing imagery data.

Folks,

We cannot create a map file which draws a dashed line for both mapsrver 5.6 and

I have done this by creating a column with the filename in it. You can
then use the column as a symbol name or symbol path or as attribute
column in wfs to OpenLayers that can then be used to point to a
thumbnail directory of fullsize directory of images.


LAYER
   NAME images
   TYPE POINT
   DATA myImagePoints
   CLASS
 STYLE
   SYMBOL (/path/to/thumbs/+'[FILENAME]')
 END
   END
END

Where column FILENAME has something like 'myimage.png' and to do this
you are probably limited to gif, jpg, and png images only. svg will NOT
work.

Hello Ian,

I can for sure confirm that Thai text is supported, as it was one of the
languages tested during the initial implementation of the source code
(see the notes at the bottom of

There's always a chance that things have changed with MapServer 6.0, but

Ian,

What do you mean by this statement?

What have you tried? ie: what does you mapfile look like, what font are
you using, etc?

For this to work you need the following:

1. a mapserver build with fribidi-0.19.2 2. a truetype fone file that
supports all the glyphs that you need 3. your mapfile and data
configured correctly such that the text in the data is appropriately for
the ENCODING and that that then matches the ttf.

Re: [mapserver-users] [mapserver-dev] Maps for 16 bit displays

[Ian Walberg]

Thomas,

While creating image files in the 565 format would be ideal this is not 
required.

What we do need is to be able to create images that look good when displayed 
using a video card in 16 bit colour depth. As you suggest we are looking at 
reducing/dithering the images from 24 bit to 16 bit when displayed but of 
course if we can reduce the colour range wen rendered this would most likely 
make the image quality better.

Thanks

Ian,
I don't believe it is currently possible to render 16bit images.
However, I'm pretty certain PNG does not support 565 encoding, and couldn't 
find any reference as to whether jpeg can either. Unless you are accessing the 
image bytes directly from the mapserver library (which I suspect you are not, 
it is not a public api/structure), I would investigate in reducing from 32 to 
16 bits directly on the device at image loading time.

If you absolutely need 565 encoded output, I suspect the code can be worked on 
on the vector side with AGG to produce that, but it will not be a trivial task. 
Concerning raster rendering, this would also be a non trivial task.

thomas

 Currently we render the images at 24 bit (888) and they look fabulous.

 However when they are rendered on the target hardware they are crudely 
 reduced to (565) and this causes some horrible artefacts and banding.
 Our best guess is that the lower bits are just being discarded.

 So now we understand the problem the question is what we can do to 
 generate the map images with a reduce RGB range so that they are 
 displayed correctly.

 Having a look at the various options we cannot see anything between 
 256 colour and 24 bit colour which would help.

 Anyone have any good ideas?

This question from earlier in the year has finally got to the top of our
to do list.

The issue is how to draw a circle at a given size (ideally in miles)
when using proj=ortho.

Everything works well when using proj=latlong and SIZEUNITS miles.

Is this the expected behaviour and we do not understand something or is
this a problem?

Many thanks

Ian

This does not work in all cases as we hoped,  or we may not  understand
how to use the overall ma projection correctly.

All the layers have the projection set to proj=latlong,ellps=WGS84.

However if we set the overall map projection from this to proj=ortho
the layer with the sizeunits set disappears.

Is this an issue related to the projection or that the map units are now
different.

If we remove the sizeunits from the layer with the circles they reappear
but of course are not the correct size (in miles).

Many thanks

 Testing this today we realise (not surprisingly) that both the size

 Ideally we would like to set the radius of the circle in miles and the

 width in pixels.

 Is there any way of doing this?

Yes, add minwidth 1 and maxwidth 1 to force the width to 1 pixel.

 I jumped the gun on the geomtransform idea. The support is there but 
 because it operates at the style level buffer distances must be given 
 in pixels and there's no easy way to convert a map distance (e.g. 10
 miles) to pixels. I really should make some runtime constants (for

 you could do this.

Re: [mapserver-users] Circles around points in miles

Ok, so the MAP level units need to be set to the unit of the projection.

That means in this case they need to be meters.

Works now.

 Couple of options depending on version:

1) 6.x: buffer the points using a style geomtransform
2) all versions: use layer SIZEUNITS to draw a circle symbol in 
 miles

 I think option 1 is more flexible but option 2 is probably faster.

[mapserver-users] Outlining label text

[Ian Walberg]

Hello folks,

We are using labels with 2 lines of text and the wrap/align works well.

Then we want to draw a background and an outline for the combined text.

This works ok using the style in the label and GEOTRANSFORM labelpoly.

The problem we have is we can only get a 1 pixel border so that the
outline is just too close.

What do we need to know to draw the outline a little further out?

Thanks

Re: [mapserver-users] Outlining label text

[Ian Walberg]

As soon as I wrote this I think I have the answer.

This draws 2 outlines with the colour and outline colour the same.

The first one uses the outline width to extend the border around the
text.
The second one is bigger and a different colour we of course get an
outline.

All, 

 

I'm needing to draw some simple, but longish charts showing a GPS
timeline.  I'm thinking about trying to set up MapServer to generate
them dynamically. 

 

In the past I would have went to PGPLOT for this type of thing (It's
what I used for mapping before finding MapServer), And I see that it's
installed in Ubuntu now by default. 

 

So, my question, is this worth anything to anyone else?  has anyone done
this already, got any pointers?  The data is all in POSTGIS, so I have a
fair level of flexibility with formatting the data for MapServer use.  I
could for example format my data in such a way as to fool mapserver into
thinking it's some sort of map projection for display, etc.  I assume
all should work well with straight Cartesian Coordinates. 

 

Thanks

[mapserver-users] Image compression/performance

[Ian Walberg]

Folks,

We are using tif format images and getting good map rendering
performance.

However the image file size could do with reducing a little.

Anyone got experience of what compression options we have that have the
least impact on performance?

Thanks

Ian
