[Geomoose-users] GeoMoose Map embed in webpage

Tue Apr 12 10:28:26 EDT 2011

So my only other questions is if I have the following structure of where the map file is located...

           <param name="map" value="/ms4w/apps/mnriver/maps//demo/statedata/basemap.map"/>

What would be my mapfile path in this?

                        "map" : "... your mapfile path ..."

Would It be...

            "map": "="/ms4w/apps/mnriver/maps//demo/statedata/basemap.map"

Is the double // neded after maps?

Thanks,
Rick

Hey Rick,

Sorry, I totally didn't mean to snub you on this.  I'm just bonkers busy between this an other projects.

What you'll need to do is hand-craft the WMS requests with OpenLayers.

testLayer = new OpenLAyers.Layer.WMS("WRC WMS",
            "/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe",
            {
                        layers: "county_borders",
                        transparent: "true",
                        format: "image/png",
                        "map" : "... your mapfile path ..."
            },
            {
                        isBaseLayer: false,
                        singleTile: true
            });

So, really, this has nothing to do with GeoMOOSE and is just some OL coding.  If there was some sponsorship for a GeoMOOSE embeded version I could be talked into it but right now ... that would require funding or a very convincing argument that I should find it really really interesting.

   testLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS("WRC WMS", "http://gis.wrc.mnsu.edu/mnriver", {layers:"borders"});

I was wondering if anyone was able to help me out on this.  I saw some work down by DM Solutions.  I appreciate all your help.

Dan and All,

I was able to get the open layers to embed in a html page.  Now onto adding data to the file.  So far I have this and was trying to add an example from the mapbook file.

In terms of the server name to load data layers I have on my server, what would be the correct name.  mnriver is a folder I created instead of geomoose2.  What would be the layers name if I used the following from the mapbook file.

Thanks,
Rick

Mapbook_webmercator.xml
<!-- <map-source name="borders" type="wms" reference="false" projection="EPSG:900913" >
           <url>/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe</url>
           <param name="map" value="/ms4w/apps/mnriver/maps//demo/statedata/basemap.map"/>
           <param name="format" value="image/png"/>
           <param name="TRANSPARENT" value="TRUE"/>
           <layer name="county_borders"/>
     </map-source>  -->

You can use OpenLayers to do that.

You can use your GeoMOOSE sources (really easy if you're using WMS for most things) to play nice with OpenLayers embedded maps.

Hi all,

I was wondering if it is possible to embed either the GeoMoose map into a webpage or somehow use Mapserver to embed the map on a webpage?  I am looking for something similar to how Google allows people to embed Google Maps into a webpage.   I would only need the map and navigation controls on the map.  Is this at all possible?
