[Geomoose-users] [Geomoose-developers] Buffer Tool

Mon Nov 3 15:26:01 EST 2008

Adam,

You should be able to change the xml definition from <service
title="Select by Buffer" default="true" locked="true"
cursor="url(cursors/pencil2.cur), auto" return="xml" display="div"
shape="box">

To 

Shape="measurearea"

Yeah I've been playing around with this in the buffer tool, but it runs
a php script, which also needs to be modified.  It keeps saying it must
be a poly.  The select tool is probably ok as a box, but the buffer tool
really doesn't do any good on roads if it is a box select.

My graphic drawing tools don't work in the county demo either.

First and foremost, I just wanted to thank you guys for the new release
of GeoMoose.  It is much better than GeoMoose 1.0, which I had been
using.  You guys did a great job.  Secondly, I was wondering if the
buffer tool could function more like the draw line tool.  As it
currently stands you can only select by drawing a square box.  This
makes it impossible to select or buffer a stretch of curvy road.  For
example I want to buffer only Highway 101; if you could draw a line down
the center of Highway 101 then you could buffer it.  You can't draw a
square around Highway 101 and get only the roads you want.  You could
additionally add in a shortcut key to get the tool to draw a square box.

Just thought I would pass this along to anyone interested...

I asked the question to get the select tools mailing labels to work like
the buffer tool....The buffer tool was not specific enough...with the
select tool I can select with Polygons, Lines, and Points...these means
are far more specific and make more sense for my application.  Sometimes
you need random selections.....

GeoMOOSE was not designed for this....... I got this code from Mike
Hamby....Thanks Mike!

Anyways....the code is below....its basically the SELECT BUFFER code
...just replace you select code with this....and replace the blue code
with your specifics....

The main line allowing this is the negative buffer.... <input
type="hidden" name="buffer" value="-5"/>

Then you can change the shape="box" to allow a box, polygon, ,line etc

<service title="Select Feature" default="true" locked="true"
cursor="url(cursors/select.cur), auto" shape="box" type="inspect-search"
icon="shared/images/toolbar/draw_polygon.jpg"
highlight="shared/images/toolbar/draw_polygon_selected.jpg">

<url>php/buffer_select.php</url>

                    <input type="hidden" name="buffer" value="-5"/>

                    <input type="multipoint" name="coords"/>

                    <input type="hidden" name="shape" value="poly"/>

                    <input type="hidden" name="map"
value="/ms4w/apps/GeoMOOSE/maps_Crawford_UTM/select.map"/>

                    <input type="hidden" name="select"
value="/ms4w/apps/GeoMOOSE/maps_Crawford_UTM/select.map"/>

                    <input type="hidden" name="select_layer"
value="Parcels:PIN">Parcels></input>

                    <input type="hidden" name="query_layer"
value="Parcels:PIN">Parcels></input>

                    <input type="hidden" name="output" value="html"/>

 </service>

Ok, well if it seems there is no up-to-date information regarding this

then how about the moose: tags returned from services?

The "types" are actually deprecated.

They used to imply how the search results were called and processed.

The only type that is honoured any more is "xml-post" which you can see

an example of operation in the Print service, which actually posts XML

to print.php for output.

Subject: [Geomoose-users] Service Types XML

I am looking at the service definition located at GeoMoose's website.

http://www.geomoose.org/moose/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=

14&Itemid=29

I am trying to investigate the different parameters; particularly

'type'. I am looking at the Select Feature Service and notice the type

is "inspect-search". What is this? Are there more types than the 3

displayed on the site? Any help is appreciated..

There is an intentional lack of documentation there, and that's because
it's a freakin' hack.

What happens when you return stuff from a service is this:

1) If it returns mapbook XML, then it processes it as if you've loaded
another mapbook, it can turn layers on, update them, etc.

2) If it returns HTML, it displays the HTML in the DIV, and then takes
commands from the <moose:mapbook>, it uses the different name space in
order to get the ease of HTML templating and get the power needed to do
two way communications between the Javascript client and the server-side
services.
