[mapguide-users] MapGuide OS WMS server

Hi Maksim,

>From what I understand, vector data will overlay on Google fine via WMS
using WGS84 - EPSG 4326.

I have a number of layers configured this way and it works fine.  But what
about raster imagery?  

Google uses a modified Mercator for its tiles, and I need to overlay some
raster imagery layers.  I need to reproject the raster to the appropriate
map projection for proper display.

If I format images in a modified Mercator, will MapGuide be able to
recognize the projection and will the WMS work?

I added the projections to the files in the nad and data directories for
both the server and web extensions, as well as modified the WMS axd file.  I
can't get it to work.  I get an invalid coordinate system error.  Not sure
if I am doing something wrong or not configuring it correctly.  Hoping
someone else has done this before.

Here is some info on the Google projections:

Hi Kori,

Do you have any indicies how is EPSG:3785 different than standard WGS84?
I've been doing coordinate transformation from numerous other CRSes to WGS84
and everything worked fine with Google Earth/Maps. The most important part
of the process is, naturally, getting correct WGS84 transformation
parameters in first place. BTW, decimeter-precision range is out of question
due to GE/GM aerial imagery scale which is, if I recall correctly, 1:5000
(m) at best.

Regards,

Maksim Sestic

Has anyone tried to publish to the new EPSG projection for Google - 3785 -
successfully?

Can the Proj4 library handle custom projections in this manner?

Cheers,

Hi Danas,
I am not sure it is what you are searching for, but I wrote on my blog two
posts on how to publish WMS with MapGuide (using Autodesk MapGuide Studio).
It's in french, but with Google translation (on the left), and screenshots,
I assume it can be useful.
You will find :
- publish WGS 84 WMS service :

.html
- publish with other coordsys :

I'm not used to mapguide studio, I found 'is published check box, but was
unable to save layer after checking it (save was not active).

Is it somewhere in XML files of layers? I didn't found anything special in
sheboygan layers. Can you send my an example of publishing code, please?

Regards,
D.
