[mapserver-users] Web client which sends WMS requests by dividing the page
Hi all, I would like to ask if there's a web client for MapServer which supports dividing the map request into pieces. For example: When I zoom to an area on the page, instead of requesting the area image as one big image, divide the area to 256x256 pixel images and send in 16-20 requests. So instead of waiting for a whole picture to be loaded, users can see the images loading one by one. Many thanks in advance ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Hi, Yes, there are plenty of them (all written in JavaScript): * OpenLayers (2.13.1): http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.13.1/examples/wms.html * ol3: http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.13.1/examples/wms.html * leaflet: http://leafletjs.com/reference.html#tilelayer-wms HTH, Alexandre On 14-08-26 07:58 AM, Ceyhun Ganioglu wrote: Hi all, I would like to ask if there's a web client for MapServer which supports dividing the map request into pieces.

[mapserver-users] Web Client
Hi, First of all I would like to say Hello to everybody as I am a newbie of both MapServer and the mailing list. I need some suggestions about the web based client to send WMS and WFS requests to Map Server to display map and database records. I had a look at the internet and found some projects. But it takes unbelievable long time to read all documentations to see if it provides a few things I need. The basic functions I need are: - Possible to list layers - Solid zoom in/out functions - Design/icons and display functions customizable - Preferably written in PHP (not a must) I won't say no if there's one provides more functions :) So I wanted to ask which clients are good enough just like a daily chat with friends :) I hope I am not breaking any rules of the group at the first day. Any suggestions? Many thanks in advance Ceyhun ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
Re: [mapserver-users] Web Client
I recommend you use QGIS as a desktop client to test the WxS server setup, it is simple robust, and helps get things working well server side before you start on the web client. Alternatives include uDIG and gvSIG. To build the web client, try Openlayers or Leaflet. For PHP you can use the Mapscript that comes with Mapserver.

Re: [mapserver-users] Web Client
Hi, Have a look at MapIgniter https://github.com/taviroquai/MapIgniter - Based on PHP, CodeIgniter, MapServer, Postgis and OpenLayers 2.11 - Interface as a CMS (like Joomla or Drupal) - 3 default roles with specific menus: public, user, administrator - [Your requirements here] The MapIgniter project is not ready for production but can be a very good start for your development version. There will be a MapIgniter version 2 based on a recent framework/cms :) Cheers, Marco Afonso 2014-08-12 11:37 GMT+01:00 Ceyhun Ganioglu ceyhunganio...@gmail.com: Hi, First of all I would like to say Hello to everybody as I am a newbie of both MapServer and the mailing list.

Re: [mapserver-users] Web Client
For something simpler, you may want to consider GeoMOOSE. 1. It has a very nice catalog that has been really refined over the years. 2. The Zoom-in/Zoom-out and other capabilities are built atop the well-proven OpenLayers 2.X code base. 3. It is highly customizable with CSS but comes with a nice set of icons from the start. It also uses Dojo for its widget library and can be highly customized with that toolset. 4. The services (such as search, etc.) are based on PHP but are also very small, light weight, and easy to change. GeoMOOSE has some other advantages: - The install is not very large. - It requires no more PHP dependencies than MapScript (the windows/MS4W deploy is very easy) - It can be configured with an XML file. - We are constantly working on documentation and have a lot of it at our website www.geomoose.org along with a handy demo at demo.geomoose.org /me will now stop self promoting. :-) On Tue, Aug 12, 2014 at 5:58 AM, Marco Afonso mafonso...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Have a look at MapIgniter https://github.com/taviroquai/MapIgniter - Based on PHP, CodeIgniter, MapServer, Postgis and OpenLayers 2.11 - Interface as a CMS (like Joomla or Drupal) - 3 default roles with specific menus: public, user, administrator - [Your requirements here] The MapIgniter project is not ready for production but can be a very good start for your development version.

I'm using the Nasa Worldwind sample client. You can use the canned demo, or get the SDK and build your own.
