[mapserver-users] Wrong about cgi feature parameter

[Lime, Steve D (MNIT)]

Hi Ahmet: MapServer doesn’t handle GeoJSON within a feature object. However, it does handle WKT so I imagine you can convert from a polygon in OpenLayer to WKT and pass that. See http://mapserver.org/mapfile/feature.html for more information on the MapServer side…

Thank you Steve for your detailed help.

Actually I intended to create polygon using OpenLayers, then sending coordinates
to mapserver as feature object. I am going to use this polygon feature as a mask
to crop related portion of raster map.
It was OK for simple rectangle polygon. Now, I am looking for a way for complex polygon which has so many points.

Do you have any idea about whether I can assign a GeoJSON object for a feature in URL request ?

Regards

I was able to get something very similar working, albeit via a straight MapServer CGI call – didn’t try WMS. I noticed in your example you reference two layers poor and polf, is that intended?

Hi,
I want to create a feature dynamically for point layer.
But,What am I doing wrong ? It must be about feature parameter. But I was not able to solve it.
This request generates nothing.

curl --trace -i -g -X GET -H "Content-Type: image/png" "http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/ms_map/slptrRGB3857.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&Layers=poor &map_layer[polf]=FEATURE+POINTS+3559569+5042506+END+END&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:3857&BBOX=2857613.741389,4274927.875099,4989229.633477,5176940.449967&WIDTH=400&HEIGHT=300&FORMAT=image/png" > out.png

If you can help, I will appreciate.
regards
