[MAPSERVER-USERS] WMS: layer status turned to on

2008-12-11 Thread Philippe Kruschitz
Hi list, I have a question concerning the behaviour of Mapserver when acting as a WMS server. We have a web mapping application rendering roads and landcover information for all Europe. As the dataset is pretty huge, we have to use multiple, scale-dependant mapfiles. This was necessary because

I am facing a similar problem. In my case, though, I would like the layers in question to default to Status Off, not for scale reasons, but simply because we don't want the layers displayed by default. The individual layer files are set to Status Off, but when the WMS service is loaded into,

[mapserver-users] Graticule and Map Frame strategies

2008-12-11 Thread Roger André
Hi All, I'm curious what options have been explored to create tick marks, graticules and outside-of-map symbology? I'm currently investigating the use of Matplotlib as a compositer to draw on top of a Mapserver-generated image, and while I think this will give nice looking results, the speed of

Roger, While it's not really Drawing perse, we use the GeoMoose interface to do this type of printing, since the GeoMoose interface abstracts out all it's map layers as separate calls, there is quite a bit of functionality available for stacking of imagery, particualrly for plotting. We do use

Roger, I asked a similar question last year (http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/discuss/2007-September/002349.html). Landon Blake and I (and others) came to the conclusion that the answer was to create a map surround library suitable for wrapping as a plug-in to various generic

Brent, We basically came to the same conclusions, although I think there is also the potential for combining seamless overlay with the surround method as well. I still keep looking inside of MapServer too, but just can't seem to come up with a flexible method of building anything. The surround

Hi Bob and Brent, That was a great thread to dig into, thanks for sending me the link. I'm guessing that Mapserver wasn't originally developed with the intent of acting as an engine for cartographic quality, paper, map production. The fact that it's capable of generating images of such high

Brent, Hmm, heavy handed way of going at it, but it seems like it could work, might be a bit laborious to set up initially. Sounds good enough to experiment with anyway. BTW, does anyone know of a way to label a line and justify the label to the edge of the map (other than planting things
