[Mapserver-users] Raster with SVG output in Mapserver 4.1 dev

[Steve Lime]

You can get one layer at a time using the method you mention. Has this been a problem?

As for rasters, I would look at MapServer just as an image engine. Generate the SVG independently of the raster layer and use a call to MapServer from within the SVG (e.g. src=/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=...&mode=map) to get the layer you need as a GIF, PNG or JPEG image.

Hi all

 

Now, I have tested SVG output from the nightly build of Mapserver 4.1. It quite stable and work fine. Our test application, in this case, we will use Mapserver only as a SVG generator by request through CGI. My question is

 

-        Can we request each SVG layers by specify the layer name? (now we have to request one CGI statement as one SVG layer for example, 

 

http://host/cgi-bin/mapserv_41.exe?map=D:\apache_group\Apache\htdocs\umn2svg\test.map& mode=nquery& qlayer=water  à return water layer

http://host/cgi-bin/mapserv_41.exe?map=D:\apache_group\Apache\htdocs\umn2svg\test.map& mode=nquery& qlayer=contour  à return contour layer

 

But if we didn't specify qlayer="" it will return all layer in the mapfile

 

-        Can we enclose the Raster image that generate by Mapserver from tmp directory together with the svg output?

 

I try to do but it not success. No image in the tmp directory.

----CGI request---

http://host/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/apache/htdocs/umn2svg/trysvgimage.map&mode=nquery&qlayer=ndvi 

 

---- SVG return error ----

</g>

<!-- this is the end of a layer -->

</svg>

        HEADER image_header.svg

        FOOTER image_footer.svg

        TEMPLATE image.svg

  END

  

END

 

Anyone can give me some light?

 

Thanks
