[Geomoose-users] Printing using mapcache - older version of GeoMOOSE

[Mark Volz]

Everyone,

Thank you for your help.  I will keep GM 3.x in mind once the new state parcel and road standards get finalized.

I was able to get the printing to work.  I’m not exactly which settings helped.  Here are some of the items I looked at:

·         Turned fractional zoom off.  <param name="fractional_zoom">false</param>

·         Preserved the scale in my print scale. <input type="hidden" name="scale" value="preserve"/>

·         Verified settings.ini projection.

·         Verify cache scales in mapcache vs mapbook.

Thank You!

Sincerely,
Mark Volz, GISP

- There was no code written in the 2.X series to handle the printing of tiled datasets.  No one ever took up the mantle and no sponsorship ever came in for the feature.
- I would disable tiling.  Generally speaking, you'll get close to the same performance out of a well setup GeoTiff. MapServer can render them very quickly and the data file size for a county or even multi-county area isn't so large as to create too many issues.
- Yes, this issue has been resolved in GeoMoose 3.X.  And by default GeoMoose 3.X will use WFS to execute it's queries.  MapServer offers the ability to limit the data available over WFS, regardless of whether the parcels are 'open' or not.  The same is true of GeoMoose 2.X, the data that can be returned by the PHP scripts is the same data that can be returned by WFS and vice-versa.  The differences is that GM 3.X targets a standard instead of our own DIY request structure.

Hello,

I am currently using mapcache tiles for fast viewing of air photos.  However the tiles do not print similar to issue 39.  https://github.com/geomoose/geomoose/issues/39.  I am using GeoMOOSE 2.4 and 2.6.

I was wondering:

•         Has anyone found a workaround for this issue?

•         Should I just disable tiling and have mapcache run as a WFS?

•         Has this issue been resolved in new versions of GeoMOOSE?   However, I was under the impression that some of the features require WFS to work well.  At this time our parcels are not open therefore upgrading might be difficult.

Please let me know if you have any opinions as to how I can move forward.

Thank You!
