<div>I am a new mapserver user and have spent countless hours over the last month reading, trying code, etc. before posting here for help. I am trying to generate an image (non-interactive) on a webpage based off of attribute data in a points file. For example, 20 different points equally distributed in a field contain data about the moister level of the soil. I want to make the lowest levels blue and the highest levels yellow, or something like that with some gradients in between. If possible I want it to have interpolated data between them to show the gradual change, but that isn't a must. I also want to wrap it in a polygon that trims the edges. </div>
<div><br></div><div>I found some python code that I thought might do the trick , but it seems lots of heat maps are based off of how many points exist in a certain area, and thats now what I am doing. </div><div><br></div>
<div>My points contain numbers in the attributes, 5, 25, 92, 71, etc. I feel like I am missing some easy way to do this right in front of me with gdal or something. If someone has any direction or even demo code that would be greatly appreciated. </div>
