Subject: [mapserver-users] How reproduce a false color NDVI.
Message-ID: <CABqTJk9Jus5-p3pHQ95RbMF97x0iZ-_LOruh0=un_iAmo68Asw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,
we have a set of tiffs georef with 4th bands of color RGB and Infrared.
We need to activate a wms with the color from the NDVI index

NDVI = Normalized Difference Vegetation Index

          NIR - RED
NDVI = -------------
          NIR + RED


Where NIR is the 4th band,
RED s the 1th band.

We prefer dont' do a physical float raster, but retrieve this realtime from the
original tiffs.

I try to reproduce this index NDVI using to a LUT table in MapServer,
but without any success.
There is some other solution to obtain this on mapserver.

Thx to everyone.

Andrea,

It turns out that the same question was asked more than 10 years ago : 
http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-users/2004-July/053754.html

Since them, GDAL has the VRT format. With derived bands (described near the 
end of http://gdal.org/gdal_vrttut.html), you could do that but that requires 
writing a custom function in C, which isn't very convenient for integration 
with MapServer. It would be nice to add the capability of writing pixel 
functions in Python.

Thanks Jukka - I'll try your suggestion for OGR connection-type first, since
that's easy for me to test on our existing platform.  I have tried the
"PropertyIsLike" and that definitely works.  It'll take me a little bit
longer to "spin up" a more recent version of the software packages...

Regards, Bill.

Hi Jukka - I've tried testing your other suggestion:

OK - I've tried using the OGR CONNECTIONTYPE - it no longer generates an
error message, but comes back with a null result set.

Checking the logs reveals that the error is now apparently being pushed
further back up the stack - eg the Postgres logs are clear (strangely) but
the MapServer debug log reports an error as follows:


I guess effectively the same error as before - there's no quoting in the
string literal (not sure why the Postgres log shouldn't still report this
error...?)

Testing the OGR config with WFS operator "PropertyIsLike", works (as did the
PostGIS driver.)  I think I'll use this method for the moment as it will
work with our production system.

Thanks again!

Steve - good to know that v7 works.

After profiling version 6.0.4 and 6.2.2 MapServer we were able to isolate the
issue. It seems that the issues is related to  ?OWS_LAYER_GROUP? under
LAYER>METADATA in our map files.

When ?OWS_LAYER_GROUP? is not used in the map file, GetCapabilities request
on version 6.2.2 is significantly faster (was comparable with the timing on
version 6.0.2)

Profiling showed us that version 6.2.2 is taking significantly more time on
?msWMSPrepareNestedGroups? function in mapwms.c file. Especially
?strcasecmp? function in side ?msWMSPrepareNestedGroups? is taking
significant time.

When we compare the source of mapwms.c, we noticed that there are some
additional processing happening in the ?else? block ? /* split into
subgroups. Start at address + 1 because the first '/' would cause an extra
empty group */? .
?else? block in Version 6.0.4 looks like following ( line 1900 in mapwms.c)

//////////////////////////
else
        {
          /* split into subgroups. Start at adres + 1 because the first '/'
would cause an extra emtpy group */
          nestedGroups[i] = msStringSplit(groups + 1, '/',
&numNestedGroups[i]);
        }

////////////////////////////

But the ?else? block in version 6.2.2 looks like following with the
additional processing ( line 371 in mapwms.c)

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////
else {
          /* split into subgroups. Start at address + 1 because the first
'/' would cause an extra empty group */
          nestedGroups[i] = msStringSplit(groups + 1, '/',
&numNestedGroups[i]);
          /* */
          for (j = 0; j < map->numlayers; j++) {
            if (isUsedInNestedGroup[j])
              continue;

            for (k=0; k<numNestedGroups[i]; k++) {
              if ( GET_LAYER(map, j)->name && strcasecmp(GET_LAYER(map,
j)->name, nestedGroups[i][k]) == 0 ) {
                isUsedInNestedGroup[j] = 1;
                break;
              }
            }
          }

Andrea,

My point was that wile it could be potentially an interesting way of doing it, 
in the current state of things, you need to write a C function, link it with 
GDAL or MapServer, and call a register function, which likely makes it 
impractical for most people.

Hi

Following up on my previous post we still want to use ?OWS_LAYER_GROUP? in
our map files. We have large number of layers in our map file ( nearly 800).

Currently we are in the process of migrating our MapServer 5.4.2 environment
in to MapServer 6.4.1.

In MapServer 6.4.1 GetCapabilities request takes more than 1 minute compared
5 second in version 5.4.2. This makes the new environment unusable by our
clients.

Is there a possibility where someone in the MapServer development team looks
in to this and fix this issue. 

Thanks

Subject: [mapserver-users] POST for WMS - supported
Message-ID: <1425445902901-5191349.post@n6.nabble.com>

Hi all,
Are HTTP POST requests supported for WMS GetMap requests?  I realise that
requests including an SLD are supported... but what about for requests not
using an SLD?

I'm using MapServer v6.0.3.  I've tried to code up the layer name, format,
bounds etc as a POSTED request and can't get it to work.  I realise it's
just as easy to use the GET request, but I'm writing a short library to
enable other apps/developers to interact with the MapServer and because some
requests will need SLD and some won't, I thought I'd minimise the number of
functions by just having a POST version for GetMap rather than a GET version
as well.

Regards, Bill

My URL looks like:
http://pucu-gap-02.networks.in.telstra.com.au/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/volumes/data/mapconfig/globaleye/geinfrastructuredata.map&

My request body looks like below:


The error reported back:


MapServer logs the following error:


Note: the equivalent HTTP GET request works fine - URL:

Hi,

I have been wondering also why GetCapabilities response is so slow for us nowadays and I have indeed added lots of groups to some services.
+1 from me for having a look at this issue.

We just installed 7.0-beta on our test server and GetCapabilities comes slowly from that too. There are about 40 layers in the test service and response time is about 8 seconds.

Sometimes I have been wondering if GetCapabilities could be cached and controlled by some new CONFIG key. Cached GetCapabilities could be set to be refreshed for example once per week/day/hour if there is a need to react on changes in the data, and each time after the mapfile has been edited and saved with a new timestamp.

Hi all,

I'm trying to fix a mapserver install that is displaying Arabic text but 
it is rendering it backwards ltr instead of rtl.

I'm using mapserver 6.2.2 and it is built with fribidi support. Point 
labels are rendered correctly.

On the road labels I changed it from ANGLE FOLLOW to ANGLE AUTO because 
RFC 98 clearly states ANGLE FOLLOW does not support rtl text until 7.0

Should ANGLE AUTO work with rtl labeling?

Thanks,

In Section 9.2.4 of the MapServer v6.0 Manual, under "OGC Support and
Configuration / WMS Server / WMS 1.3.0 Support / Some Missing features" it
lists "WMS 1.3.0 Post request should be an XML document containing the
different operations and parameters."  (Also appears in the current version
documentation v7 beta, although page hasn't been updated since 2013.)

- is this suggesting that POST is not supported?

Subject: [mapserver-users] WMTS tiles not at correct Latitude (and moving)
Message-ID: <C687946C-4376-4E02-B937-185F0146B5E5@ausvet.com.au>

G?day all,

we have set up a map cache wmts layer to produce boundaries for our mapping system.

In isolation, it was looking OK, however when we layer the boundaries with any known background (OSM etc) they appear to be offset by a few degrees S (it is all in EPSG:3857)

To confuse things more, as we zoom in a couple of layers, this seems to be moving north (which is good), but not enough to converge with our background or data layers - so still bad.

I?ve put an image to illustrate this at :

https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/uploads.ausvet.com.au/Misaligned-WMTS.png

My guess is I have done something wrong at some level of configuration (postgis data, mapfile, wms config, mapcache.xml or OpenLayers),  but it might be that it is common enough that most people can figure it out (which is why I couldn?t find a good reason!)

Any advice would be gratefully accepted. I can put up further details as required (or if it isn?t as simple as I thought)

cheers

Ben

Hello Ben,

looking at your screenshot this does not look right at all.
What I would do is, connect myself to the database, the wms (directly 
and via mapcache), and to OSM at the same time with QGIS (open source) 
and see what happens there. I was able to figure out most of my CRS 
issues that way. I QGIS you can set the layer CRS and reproject on the 
fly, seeing what happens if you change one or the other. The project CRS 
however needs to be set to EPSG:3857 indeed if you work with open 
layers. Reprojection activated.

You could then of course post your mapfile and configurations if you 
can't narrow it down that way.

Best

Lars

Have a look at this thread if this is happening on a custom grid (i.e.
notre google-mercator or wgs84):

Nope. Sending the KVP request with mimetype "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" via POST is fully supported. Simple example:

# wget -d -O- --post-data="service=WMS&request=GetCapabilities" http://host/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/path/to/mapfile.map

You should apply OPACITY at STYLE or LAYER.

You can set Opacity at the layer level.

Doesn't look like it... We'd need additional configuration controls - MINOFFSET/MAXOFFSET, etc... I think those would be good additions (and relatively easy to add) although I wonder if there would be a better way to define limits without introducing new parameters. Thoughts?

Hi List,

It looks like label OUTLINEWIDTH and OFFSET are dependant of SYMBOLSCALE which leads to strange behaviours and looks on large scale range (see image included -> huge halo and distance between point and its label).
Is there a way to detach these parameters from the SYMBOLSCALE settings ?

Thanks

Guillaume

This is something I?d really like to see fixed. Any chance a test mapfile could be developed and attached to a new ticket on github? Ideally I'd start against 7.0 and then back-port if possible.

Hi,

I have been wondering also why GetCapabilities response is so slow for us nowadays and I have indeed added lots of groups to some services.
+1 from me for having a look at this issue.

We just installed 7.0-beta on our test server and GetCapabilities comes slowly from that too. There are about 40 layers in the test service and response time is about 8 seconds.

Sometimes I have been wondering if GetCapabilities could be cached and controlled by some new CONFIG key. Cached GetCapabilities could be set to be refreshed for example once per week/day/hour if there is a need to react on changes in the data, and each time after the mapfile has been edited and saved with a new timestamp.

I too was wondering if this occurs with a simple mapfile of layers with 
groups, even with just inline features (no actual data).

(I haven't hit this grouped-issue yet though in my travels, but I have 
hit the slow getcapabilities solved by adding extents to all layers)

IIRC, this happened when we introduced advanced layer groupings along with
inspire support in 6.2, and has to do with multiple passes through layers
to determine which ones to activate or not. I'd suspect the cost is
proportional to nlayers? which is why it comes up for folks with many
layers in their mapfiles.

I work with a mapfile designed to be a WMS proxy to organize all our WMS
sources (typically other mapfiles) into one point of access.  It has
many layers makes extensive use of groups.  In general testing with curl
and use with QGIS, I have not noticed the GetCapabilites (or any other
aspect of the configuration) to be slow.  I am away from the machine at
the moment, but will run benchmarks tomorrow.

The upstream sources and the proxy mapfile run under MapServer 6.4.1
(with some minimal patching).

Subject: [mapserver-users] Speed of getting layer extents does matter
Message-ID: <209556c519ae4706a98a5b668ffc65cf@C119S212VM022.msvyvi.vaha.local>

Hi,

I tried to repeat the issue with slow GetCapabilities and my hypothesis was that the reason was in the new nested layer groups which I had added lately. However, now it seems that the real issue was in the way I had added new Spatialite layers. That I were using those layers in groups was not important in my case.

I separated 7 layers from a production service for the speed tests. Three of the data tables have less than 10000 rows, three between 10000and 60000, and one 205000 rows so they are not big tables at all. Initially the time to read GetCapabilities with curl was 4.1 seconds. By rewriting the DATA lines as described below the time went down to 0.45 seconds.

I had followed the examples from http://www.mapserver.org/input/vector/ogr.html without thinking too much about what I was doing:

CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "db.sqlite"
DATA "select * from my_table"

With this definition the layer extents are computed by aggregating the extents of all the geometries of the table. However, GetCapabilities is much faster if I define the layer as

CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "db.sqlite"
DATA "my_table"

I have up-to-date statistics in my Spatialite DB and the boost in speed must mean that OGR is clever enough for making a query to the layer_statistics table for getting the layer extents.

Now afterwards this feels trivial but I would suggest to improve the documentation in  http://www.mapserver.org/input/vector/ogr.html and http://mapserver.org/mapfile/layer.html Currently the latter document is putting rather low value on the importance of extents.

EXTENT [minx] [miny] [maxx] [maxy]
The spatial extent of the data. In most cases you will not need to specify this, but it can be used to avoid the speed cost of having MapServer compute the extents of the data.

I am not sure what could be the best place to add some documentation about this speed cost which can easily mean that GetCapabilities gets half a second slower than necessary per ill behaving layer in the mapfile. I sketched this text

Performance considerations
Layer extents and slow WMS GetCapabilities

Computing the extents of an OGR layer can be expensive if the layer is large and extents can't be read directly from metadata. This is the case if:

-          Data source does not support fast method for accessing the extents (CSV, GML)

-          The source store does not have layer statistics available or they are not up-to-date and therefore disabled (Spatialite, PostGIS)

-          Layer data in the mapfile is defined as SQL SELECT

For example, if Spatialite database has a valid entry in the layer_statistics table GDAL/OGR is able to read the extents directly from the metadata when the layer is defined as

CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "db.sqlite"
DATA "my_table"

However, if layer is defined as SQL SELECT the extents are computed by running a query that aggregates the extents of selected geometries
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "db.sqlite"
DATA "select * from my_table"

If computing the layer extents on-the-fly feels too slow consider to use the EXTENT keyword in LAYER http://mapserver.org/mapfile/layer.html.

For comparison, with Geoserver the layer extents are stored to configuration files when layers are added to server for the first time which means the same as having LAYER-EXTENT always set for all the layers in mapfiles.

Hi,

I have a kml file in which there is a folder containing both Line and Point
geometry placemarks. I want to show both line and point geomerty on map
using mapserver. but the issue is that the data source is same. so how can
i show the point and line data on map.
Please help me.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Errors with LAYER DATA "geom FROM (...huge
	SELECT...)"
Message-ID: <20150309114544.GE4911@West.NL>

Hi all,

We have some layers in Oracle where the map config specifies:

  LAYER
    ...
    DATA "geom FROM (
	SELECT a_very_long_select_statement_with_lots_of_%PARAMS%
	FROM some_table
      )
      USING FILTER"
    ...
  END

After a certain length of the SELECT, we get strange errors: an
imcomplete SQL statement is being sent to Oracle.

Turns out that this is due to the define in maporaclespatial.c:

  #define TABLE_NAME_SIZE            2000

Since I found no other alternatives, I was only able to fix it by
changing this define and recompiling Mapserver. This particular
assumption (that "2000 characters ought to be enough for anybody") is
still present in the Mapserver 7 source code. Additionally, the buffer
to hold the query string is hard-coded as:

  char query_str[6000];

Shouldn't this be fixed (or made configurable), or at least, clearly
documented somewhere? The current situation is, frankly, sub-optimal...

Kind regards,

You need use the special field OGR_GEOMETRY to filter by geometry type.

With ogrinfo this can be done as follows:

$ ogrinfo -al test.kml -where "OGR_GEOMETRY='LINESTRING'"
$ ogrinfo -al test.kml -where "OGR_GEOMETRY='POINT'"

Not sure how to translate this into mapfile syntax. May be using LAYER.FILTER, LAYER.DATA or (on MapServer 7.0) PROCESSING_OPTION "NATIVE_FILTER".
Using FILTER might not work due to MapServer blocking the "virtual" attribute...

LAYER
	TYPE POINT
	...
	FILTER "('[OGR_GEOMETRY]' == 'POINT')"
	...
END

Or

LAYER
	TYPE POINT
	...
	DATA "SELECT * FROM 'Fibertech solution' WHERE OGR_GEOMETRY='POINT'"
	...
END

Or

LAYER
	TYPE POINT
	...
	PROCESSING_OPTION "NATIVE_FILTER=OGR_GEOMETRY='POINT'"
	...
END

Subject: [mapserver-users] queryByLayer - is it a valid method on layerObj?
Message-ID: <A0641FF0352C64429BE486469C9AD53C01F636E0@001FSN2MPN4-151.001f.mgd2.msft.net>

All,

The Mapscript SWIG interface on the layerObj defines a queryByFilter method as
  public int queryByFilter(mapObj map, string arg1)
where arg1 is supposedly the filter to apply when querying the layer, analogous to
    public int queryByRect(mapObj map, rectObj rect)

Where is this method documented? It is not described in either the 6.4 or 7.0 documentation. Based upon the history of the code that I'm attempting to bring back to life the method was probably documented in MapServer 4.x or 5.x. Note that is still visible through SWIG.

How should it be used? I tried it with a WFS OGC filter and the log file showed (ignore line wrapping here):

  [Mon Mar 09 12:18:35 2015].727000 yyparse(): Expression parser error. syntax error
  [Mon Mar 09 12:18:35 2015].727000 msEvalExpression: Expression parser error.
     Failed to parse expression:
     <Filter><Intersect><PropertyName>Geometry</PropertyName><gml:Polygon>
       <gml:outerBoundaryIs><gml:LinearRing><gml:coordinates>
         -88.0865046533,37.5555143852 -88.0860204771,37.5600435404
         -88.0782858287,37.5595392364 -88.0787704736,37.5550101113
         -88.0865046533,37.5555143852
       </gml:coordinates></gml:LinearRing></gml:outerBoundaryIs>
     </gml:Polygon></Intersect></Filter>

I tried with a much simpler mapfile filter and got much the same result:

  [Mon Mar 09 12:53:22 2015].470000 yyparse(): Expression parser error. syntax error
  [Mon Mar 09 12:53:22 2015].470000 msEvalExpression: Expression parser error.
    Failed to parse expression: ([mukey] in (713970, 713898))

Do any of you have a working example of its use?

Is there a way to use the OGC filter directly within mapscript code? That is ultimately what I'm after.

Thanks.

Subject: [mapserver-users] KML in mapserver
Message-ID: <CAFo4ZzB_hvid1J=f8CX7_gjMvrMnqk42oLGeMQGs0spngXJkLQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I have a single folder with multiple Placemarks of different geometries in
an input KML file.
And I want to create a .map file using KML as input source. As mapserver
ignores KML styling so i need to give styling in mapserver for each layer.
I want to give styling at each placemark. Could you please help me out how
to do the same.

KML

I would suggest using the "Style" attribute to classify your features.
From ogrinfo:

$ ogrinfo -al test.kml -where "OGR_GEOMETRY='LINESTRING'"
...
OGRFeature(Fibertech solution):1
  Name (String) = Westborough MSC - Build
...
  Style = @msn_ylw-pushpin4

OGRFeature(Fibertech solution):2
  Name (String) = Westborough MSC to Westborugh
...
  Style = @msn_ylw-pushpin8

So using CLASSITEM "Style" to classify your features might work:

LAYER
...
	CLASSITEM "Style"
	CLASS
		EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin8"
		...
	END
	CLASS
		EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin4"
		...
	END
END

Hi ,

Could any one suggest me to how to create .map file from KML file. Are any
tools available.
My requirement is to take KML file as input create .map file corresponding
to that KML and provide changes on map so that it reflects on the fly.

This was a good exercise to handle KML files.

To get this to work You have to cast the Style value to a string also.

DATA "SELECT Name as NAME, CAST(OGR_STYLE AS character(32)) AS STYLE FROM 'Fibertech solution' WHERE OGR_GEOMETRY='LINESTRING'"

The Mapfile should something like this:

# Start of LAYER DEFINITIONS -----------------------------
  LAYER
	NAME "kml_example"
	GROUP LINES
	TYPE LINE
	STATUS ON
	CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
	CONNECTION "doc_test.kml"
	DATA "SELECT Name as NAME, CAST(OGR_STYLE AS character(32)) AS STYLE FROM 'Fibertech solution' WHERE OGR_GEOMETRY='LINESTRING'"
            CLASSITEM "STYLE"
	LABELITEM "NAME"

	CLASS
#	  EXPRESSION ([STYLE] = '@msn_ylw-pushpin4')
      	 EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin4"
	  NAME "Fiber Names 4"
      STYLE
        COLOR 250 0 0
       WIDTH 2.5
     END
      LABEL
        SIZE TINY
        COLOR 255 100 100

	  EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin8"
	  NAME "Fiber Names 8"
      STYLE

		WIDTH 3.1
      END
      LABEL
        SIZE TINY
        COLOR 100 255 100

I would write a bash script that starts with using ogrinfo.
Extract all relevant information from ogrinfo with sed, awk and similar tools.
Print the mapfile content of the fly from the bash script with a lot of printf commands
Quick method in my opinion!

Here is a small extract from an example I did a couple of weeks ago:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Argument parsing depending on your needs.
#
# eg. KML_FILE is set from argument 1
#     MAPFILE is argument 2
#
#  Process EXTENT for the mapfile
#
shopt -s lastpipe
ogrinfo -ro $KML_FILE -al \
| grep Extent | egrep -o '[0-9.]+' | readarray BBOX
minx=`echo ${BBOX[0]} | tr -d '\n'`
miny=`echo ${BBOX[1]} | tr -d '\n'`
maxx=`echo ${BBOX[2]} | tr -d '\n'`
maxy=`echo ${BBOX[3]} | tr -d '\n'`
#
#  Print header part of mapfile
#
printf "MAP\n" > ${MAPFILE}.map
printf "  NAME %s\n" "$MAPFILE" >> ${MAPFILE}.map
printf "  SIZE 1000 1000\n" >> ${MAPFILE}.map
printf "  UNITS dd\n" >> ${MAPFILE}.map
printf "  EXTENT %s %s %s %s\n" "${minx} ${miny} ${maxx} ${maxy}" >> ${MAPFILE}.map
?.
?and the rest of the mapfile in the same manner.

Hi ,

Could any one suggest me to how to create .map file from KML file. Are any tools available.
My requirement is to take KML file as input create .map file corresponding to that KML and provide changes on map so that it reflects on the fly.

Good catch, Lars! With this bit of OGR magic classification work as intented.
To summarize the relevant parts:

LAYER
	NAME "kml_line"
	TYPE LINE
	CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
	CONNECTION "doc_test.kml"
# restrict features to geometry type LINESTRING and make OGR_STYLE accessible as (class)item
	DATA "SELECT NAME, CAST(OGR_STYLE AS character(32)) AS STYLE FROM 'Fibertech solution' WHERE OGR_GEOMETRY='LINESTRING'"
	LABELITEM "NAME"
	CLASSITEM "STYLE"
	CLASS
		EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin4"
		...
	END
	CLASS
		EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin8"
		...
	END
END

The OGR style is the variable that is returned in the variable that is casted.
Please look at the Layer definitions that I sent yesterday in the mapfile example.


DATA "SELECT Name as NAME, CAST(OGR_STYLE AS character(32)) AS STYLE FROM 'Fibertech solution' WHERE OGR_GEOMETRY='LINESTRING'"

CLASSITEM "STYLE"

LABELITEM "NAME"



CLASS

     EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin4"


That is the STYLE value used in the CLASSITEM expression.

The description is shown in the label that uses the labelitem.  Also shown in the mapfile example yesterday.


If You only want to get the features with the style ?@msn_ylw-pushpin4' with ogrinfo you should write it like this:

ogrinfo -ro doc_test.kml \
-sql "SELECT *, CAST(OGR_STYLE AS character(255)) AS STYLE FROM 'Fibertech solution' \
WHERE OGR_GEOMETRY='LINESTRING' AND OGR_STYLE='@msn_ylw-pushpin4'" ?al

That returns the geometry and variables according to this criteria, i.e. only lines and specific style.

But I guess that You most likely would like to do this filtering in the Class section of the mapfile and not in the DATA statement.

Message-ID: <B835C97E6727134EBA39F89D4A2C4F874860E050@nembx1.ne.ch>

Hi,

I am looking for a way to create a shapeburst effect (or outer glow) on the outer side of a polygon. This is something which has been added to QGIS (using the inverted polygon option, see http://planet.qgis.org/planet/tag/shapeburst/)

I was wondering if something like that was possible in MapServer ?

I took a look at the doc but could not find anything relevant (maybe using geotransform, but then, how do I create the glow...).

Does anyone have an advice ?

Thanks !

Michael

solution

Eg.

Subject: [mapserver-users] getExtent for Postgis Layer
Message-ID: <000f01d05cac$2f7436a0$8e5ca3e0$@de>

Hi, 
I try to get the extent of my layers using php mapscript:

$map= ms_newMapObj($mapfilepath.'\map.map');
$mylayer = $map->getLayerByName($getlayer);
$layerextent = $mylayer->getExtent();

echo $layerextent->minx." ".$layerextent->miny." ".$layerextent->maxx."
".$layerextent->maxy;

This works fine for layers with shapefiles, but there comes no result for my
postgis layers.
Any idea?

Sven

Just an update... I found some kind of solution...

My polygon layer is a postgis layer, thus I just duplicated it in the mapfile, and added a st_translate on the geometry using an attribute of the table.

In this new layer, I defined a class having multiple geotransform style tags. Something like the code hereunder.

There is still some tuning to do and I don't know if that the best way to do it... but it might help other people

Objet : [mapserver-users] Inverted polygon shapeburst effect

Hi,

I am looking for a way to create a shapeburst effect (or outer glow) on the outer side of a polygon. This is something which has been added to QGIS (using the inverted polygon option, see http://planet.qgis.org/planet/tag/shapeburst/)

I was wondering if something like that was possible in MapServer ?

I took a look at the doc but could not find anything relevant (maybe using geotransform, but then, how do I create the glow...).

Does anyone have an advice ?

Thanks !

Michael

You have to create symbol definitions to use in the mapfile:

Plenty of examples on this page:

http://mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html#symbols-of-type-pixmap

/Lars

I want to create a styling for each placemark  in .map file. Means If i have a KML containing one folder with multiple placemarks as shown below. I want to create a .map file which will contain style for each placemark.
What if i have the same names of placemarks. Please help me to get the solution

Eg.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Odd warning in WFS GetCapabilities ~ what's
	missing in the config?
Message-ID: <434A1C26835F5149BDE720F63902F72208BA78F84B@nerckwmbc.ad.nerc.ac.uk>

I have a MapServer version 6.4.1 service set-up and was looking at the WFS GetCapabilities response:

http://194.66.252.155/cgi-bin/BGS_OGE_Bedrock_and_Surface_Geology_in2/ows?service=WFS&request=GetCapabilities&

All my FeatureTypes have the following warning:

<!--
WARNING: Mandatory mapfile parameter: (at least one of) MAP.PROJECTION, LAYER.PROJECTION or wfs/ows_srs metadata was missing in this context.
-->

The WFS is working though as far as I can see, for example, I get features when loading in QGIS.

Is this a bug or have I got something wrong in the config?

MAP.PROJECTION is set as:

MAP
    CONFIG "PROJ_LIB" "C:/.../gisinternals/bin/proj/SHARE"
    CONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" "C:/.../OGE2/ms_error.log"
    CONFIG "PGEO_DRIVER_TEMPLATE" "DRIVER=Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb);DBQ=%s"
    CONFIG "OGR_SKIP" "ODBC"
    EXTENT -8.7 49.8 1.8 60.9
    PROJECTION
        #Default service projection
        "init=epsg:4326"
    END

LAYER.PROJECTION (for example for GE.GeologicFault.BGS.EN.1M.Surface) is set as:

    LAYER
        NAME GE.GeologicFault.BGS.EN.1M.Surface
        EXTENT -8.01697 49.9678 0.715821 60.8368
        PROJECTION
            "init=epsg:4326"
        END

In addition I have:

        WEB
                METADATA
                        "OWS_SRS" "CRS:84 EPSG:27700 EPSG:3034 EPSG:4258 EPSG:4326"

and:

    LAYER
                METADATA
                    "OWS_EXTENT" "-8.01697 49.9678 0.715821 60.8368"
                    "OWS_SRS" "CRS:84 EPSG:27700 EPSG:3034 EPSG:4258 EPSG:4326"
                 "WFS_OWS" "EPSG:4326"

Hi Jukka,

I never do use 1.1.0 :)

But please do let the reporter (James) know.  Thanks,

Behavior might be unstable as msOWSGetEPSGProj() returns a pointer to a character buffer on the local stack frame.
While WFS 1.0.0 code uses the result directly the WFS 1.1.0 code uses msOWSGetProjURN() as a wrapper around it which might disrupt the character buffer. I'm wondering how this could ever work at all...

So as I understand it to answer the original question, is there anything wrong with the config, the answer here is no, and the error message is indeed in error!

MapServer is expecting a version number in the request, so the error message should perhaps reflect this facet.

However both the WFS 1.0.0 and WFS 1.1.0 tell me that the version parameter is optional, so Mapserver shouldn't have this expectation.

For example:

Web Feature Service Implementation Specification, Version: 1.0.0

OGC 02-058

12.2 Request

...
The service attribute is described in section 7.8. The version attribute, unlike the normal case, is not mandatory since a client application may not have apriori knowledge about what versions a server may support. The client and the server will need to apply the rules of version negotiation as described in Section 6.2.4.
...

and

Web Feature Service Implementation Specification, Version: 1.1.0

OGC 04-094

6.2.4 Version number negotiation

An OWS Client may negotiate with a Service Instance to determine a mutually agreeable specification version. Negotiation is performed using the GetCapabilities operation [sec. 13] according to the following rules.

All Capabilities XML must include a protocol version number. In response to a GetCapabilities request containing a version number, a web feature service must either respond with output that conforms to that version of the specification, or negotiate a mutually agreeable version if the requested version is not implemented on the server. If no version number is specified in the request, the server must respond with the highest version it understands and label the response accordingly.

Cheers

James

Hi James,

You are right with the version negotiation but if you want to avoid troubles in real life you should not trust that it works as supposed. But in your case Mapserver behaves as it should. Browser do not know how to negotiate and Mapserver sends WFS 1.1.0 GetCapabilities as an answer to your request which lacks the version. 1.1.0 is the highest version that your Mapserver supports and thus the response is correct.

In an attachment is a minimal mapfile for WFS 1.1.0 which emits no warnings into GetCapabilities. It works with the states.shp shapefile which comes with the demo data when you download Geoserver. Compare with your own mapfile and I believe that you will find what breaks it.  At least you use a non-existing metadata in  "WFS_OWS" "EPSG:4326"

Tested with Mapserver 7.0-beta and WFS 1.0.0, 1.1.0, 2.0.0, and without "&version=".

Hi Jukka,

Thanks you are correct.

I added "WFS_OWS" "EPSG:4326" to the LAYER > METADATA section as a quick hack after getting those errors and it was too quick a hack.

So changing the incorrect "WFS_OWS" "EPSG:4326" to the "WFS_SRS" "EPSG:4326" in the LAYER > METADATA makes the error message go away, but not having "WFS_SRS" "EPSG:4326" set in the LAYER > METADATA, but having the MAP > PROJECTION, and LAYER > PROJECTION, and LAYER > METADATA as "OWS_SRS" "list of SRS...", set results in the warning:

<!--
WARNING: Mandatory mapfile parameter: (at least one of) MAP.PROJECTION, LAYER.PROJECTION or wfs/ows_srs metadata was missing in this context.
-->

So as I understand it this is still a bit buggy.

The message should really read:

<!--
WARNING: Mandatory mapfile parameter: wfs_srs metadata is missing in this context.
-->

thanks again

James

Hi,

With my minimal mapfile for the states.shp the behaviour seems to be as documented.  Projection given in only one place from the list is enough for making the warning to disappear. Something that you have in a different way must make the difference. Some alternatives:
- you do not use shapefiles
- you have a longer list in LAYER "OWS_SRS" "CRS:84 EPSG:27700 EPSG:3034 EPSG:4258 EPSG:4326"
- some combination of per se correct metadata but appearing in several places; such interactions are usually not tested by developers, they are not good in imaging what all we users can write to our mapfiles.

Hi Folks,
Is there any way of serving up 4 bands of imagery as a wms that the client
can switch from rgb to false color on the fly?  I'm guessing not, that
serving up 2 wms services would be the solution, but I would love to be
corrected.

Would that be a possibility?

Hi,


With PROCESSING - BANDS http://www.mapserver.org/input/raster.html you can make one layer RGB and another for CIR. Once RFC 109

http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-109.html is implemented it will be possible to use one layer and let users to select the bands by including a variable with the GetMap requests. Read also

http://osdir.com/ml/mapserver-development/2015-02/msg00032.html.<http://osdir.com/ml/mapserver-development/2015-02/msg00032.html> I am not sure if this works already in Mapserver 7.0-beta.


For RGB and CIR the two layer approach could be easier for both the users and administrators but situation will be different if there are more bands to select from, for example Landsat scenes. There may be also need to adjust colors with SCALE or LUT at the same.

Hello List,

I have a map file with an output projection of utm13.  When I define a point layer that is in wgs84 it will only query one point at a time with a single click.  When I try to query multiple points with a box query it returns nothing.  I can't find any documentation that even resembles this issue so any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,


If you want to stay with OGC services, WMS GetFeatureInfo takes only a point as an input geometry. You can enlarge it to circle by using a bigger TOLERANCE setting in a mapfile (remember also to increase FEATURE_COUNT from the default which is one). For making queries from inside a box you should configure Mapserver to act also as a WFS server when you can do simple BBOX queries or advanced Intersects queries by using all sort of geometries as a reference geometry.


Mapserver has also its own query systems which I do not have any experience at all http://www.mapserver.org/mapscript/querying.html

Not really unfortunately. Efficient count is something that should be
implemented. Currently it basically retrieves each individual feature and
iterates over them. So it takes nearly as much as time as getting the full
features.

As far as I know there is no length function in Mapserver.
The only geometry function to use in Expressions is area(shape).
OGR sql doesn?t provide that either as far as I can see in the documentation.

So the solutions might be to convert your KML data to  sqlite or postgis where such functions are available.

The length of a string (number of characters in the string) can be found in OGR sql with the length function,
but I am assuming You are looking for the geometric length of the linestring.

Hi Jukka,

Thanks for persevering with this.

OK, so, the issue is not that I'm not using a shapefile (I'm using an OGR connection to an ESRI Geodatabase), or per se that I specified a list of SRS (the documentation shows a WFS_SRS list), but it is to do with the first cited SRS in the list.

So this original WEB METADATA "OWS_SRS" "CRS:84 EPSG:27700 EPSG:3034 EPSG:4258 EPSG:4326" fails

but his works (that is the error message in the GetCapabilities goes away)

WEB METADATA "OWS_SRS" "EPSG:4326 CRS:84 EPSG:27700 EPSG:3034 EPSG:4258"

with no need to specify an OWS/WFS LAYER METADATA section.

So the error message occurs when an unrecognized SRS is specified first.

As I understand it the processing precedence (assuming everything is otherwise correct) is:

MAP.WEB.METADATA.WFS_SRS (if this doesn't exist then check next)
MAP.WEB.METADATA.OWS_SRS (if this doesn't exist then check next)
MAP.PROJECTION (if this doesn't exist then check for the Feature)
LAYER.METADATA.WFS_SRS
LAYER.METADATA.OWS_SRS
LAYER.PROJECTION

If none then you get error:

<!--
WARNING: Mandatory mapfile parameter: (at least one of) MAP.PROJECTION, LAYER.PROJECTION or wfs/ows_srs metadata was missing in this context.
-->

There does appear to be a different processing precedence if there is some issue with the SRS, in such a situation you get:

MAP.WEB.METADATA.WFS_SRS (if this has error then check next)
MAP.WEB.METADATA.OWS_SRS (if this has error then check for the Feature)
LAYER.METADATA.WFS_SRS  (if this has error then check next)
LAYER.METADATA.OWS_SRS

If there is still an error/issue you get the same (now misleading) message:

<!--
WARNING: Mandatory mapfile parameter: (at least one of) MAP.PROJECTION, LAYER.PROJECTION or wfs/ows_srs metadata was missing in this context.
-->

I say misleading because MAP.PROJECTION, LAYER.PROJECTION are set here (EPSG:4326) but are ignored.  It is further misleading because ows_srs metadata is also set.


As I stated the service was working even with the warning in place (I think QGIS must just assume CRS:84 support because it isn't reported) e.g. this request 'works':

http://194.66.252.155/cgi-bin/BGS_OGE_Bedrock_and_Surface_Geology_in2/ows?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=GE.GeologicFault.BGS.EN.1M.Bedrock&SRSNAME=CRS:84

Really I am surprised that MapServer has been able to serve the request at all, but looking closer I see that I haven't got a CRS:84 response at all, what I have is an EPSG:4326 response, in fact I can specify any unrecognized SRSNAME and I get an EPSG:4326 response

For example:

http://194.66.252.155/cgi-bin/BGS_OGE_Bedrock_and_Surface_Geology_in2/ows?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=GE.GeologicFault.BGS.EN.1M.Bedrock&SRSNAME=UGH:00.

To me it looks like in the background MapServer must look at MAP.PROJECTION or LAYER.PROJECTION despite the error message, or else it must assume EPSG:4326 as a default.

Cheers

James

Hi Jukka,

That is right and that is why I wrote about conversion to spatialite.
Next questions is when it gets interesting.

How can I get Mapserver to understand that it is sqlite dialect in the DATA statement?
If this would be the case:

CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "doc_test.kml"
DATA "select st_length(geometry) from line_demo limit 5"

As far as I understand it defaults to regular OGR sql.
I was looking for an answer a couple of months ago but didn?t find any solution.

Somewhere I have seen that pszDialect can be set to "SQLITE".
But can that be done in the mapfile?

I have also seen in old message from You about a undocumented workaround with VRT
Is that the solution?

I have a similar issue myself where I would like work against another OGR format but with sqlite syntax.

As far as I know there is no length function in Mapserver.
The only geometry function to use in Expressions is area(shape).
OGR sql doesn?t provide that either as far as I can see in the documentation.

So the solutions might be to convert your KML data to  sqlite or postgis where such functions are available.

The length of a string (number of characters in the string) can be found in OGR sql with the length function,
but I am assuming You are looking for the geometric length of the linestring.

Hi,

I want to calculate the length in mapserver. Is it possible. Means i have a linestring and i want to know the length for it.
Also not could be suggest me how to do it.

I am using data source to mapserver as KML.

Thanks!

Subject: [mapserver-users] Odd warning in WFS GetCapabilities ~ what's
 missing in the config?
Message-ID: <51145dbcf6ef47ba919710fcfc016a92@C119S212VM022.msvyvi.vaha.local>

Hi,

It looks that at the moment this GetCapabilities is not valid:
http://194.66.252.155/cgi-bin/BGS_OGE_Bedrock_and_Surface_Geology_in2/ows?service=WFS&request=GetCapabilities&version=1.1.0


The WFS 1.1.0 schema contains
<xsd:choice>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="DefaultSRS" type="xsd:anyURI"/>
<xsd:element name="OtherSRS" type="xsd:anyURI"
minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
</xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="NoSRS">
<xsd:complexType/>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:choice>

So, there must be either DefaultSRS or then NoSRS advertised, and with DefaultSRS optionally a list of OtherSRS.
Standard says that if srsname is not included in the request then the DefaultSRS is used, and that is advertised in the OtherSRS list must be supported. However, it does not say what should happen if request contains an unknown srsname (SRSNAME=UGH:00). Somehow I would like to see an error message but your Mapserver selects to use the default SRS. Here is part of the standard:

"The optional srsName attribute of the <Query> element is used to specify a specific WFS-supported SRS to be used for returned feature geometries. Its value may be the <DefaultSRS> or any of the <OtherSRS> values listed for the feature type in WFS capabilities document. If no srsName value is supplied, then the features shall be returned using the advertised <DefaultSRS> value. This attribute has no meaning for feature types with no spatial properties; if an srsName value is specified for a feature with no spatial properties, a web feature service may ignore the parameter and its value.
Any valid URI value can be assigned to the srsName attribute. However, in order to enhance interoperability, a web feature service must be able to process srsName attribute values with the following format models..."

I suggest to go on with testing and make a bug report if you can confirm with a reproducible way that DefaultSRS is missing.

Message-ID: <CABqTJk9NEZRyyh7yjUDRretQYiO-VbDqxL_C0=rpn7iC3MPgWg@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,
I'm try-ing without success to set a filter in a spatialite db
I'm not sure my setting are right.

I'm using this settings:

    CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
    CONNECTION '/path-to-spatialite-db/spatialite.sqlite'
    DATA 'table1'
    FILTER "FIELD1 = 'val-1' and (FIELD2 like '%idtpn%' )"
    FILTERITEM 'FIELD1'
    VALIDATION
      'idtpn' '^[a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+$'
      'default_idtpn' '%'
    END

Because I'm see nothing in the map, but no error are reported in debug-log.
I guess the setting are wrong.
But I dont understand what is wrong.

Many thx to everyone .

Hi,
I resolve the question.

The right setting was

FILTER "WHERE FIELD1 = 'val-1' and (FIELD2 like '%idtpn%' )"

Hi Jukka,

You were right about that is possible to calculate length of a line in a KML file in Mapserver via ogr and sqlite.
It is possible with a VRT file. I had some weekend fun learning. This will be useful in another project I am doing!

The only trouble I found, was that I could not get the relativeToVRT=1 to work when I did an inline specification of the ovf in the mapfile.
The only way to get the inline ScrDataSource specification to work  was to use a full path description to the kml file location.
In most cases I like to use relative location specifications.
Shapepath specification in the mapfile didn?t help

/Lars

Example follows:

Make a ovf-file: doc_test.ovf

<OGRVRTDataSource>
   <OGRVRTLayer name='doc_test'>
   <SrcDataSource relativeToVRT=1>./doc_test.kml</SrcDataSource>
   <SrcSQL dialect='sqlite'>
     select geometry,
     Name,
     cast(OGR_STYLE as chartater(32)) as 'LINE_STYLE',
     cast(ST_length(geometry, 4857) as integer(12)) as 'DISTANCE'
     FROM 'Fibertech solution'
     where ST_GeometryType(geometry) LIKE 'LINESTRING%'</SrcSQL>
  </OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>

The class from the new mapfile.


  LAYER
    CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
    CONNECTION "doc_test.ovf"
    DATA 'doc_test'
    NAME "kml_example"
    GROUP LINES
    TYPE LINE
    STATUS ON
    CLASSITEM "LINE_STYLE"
    CLASS
      EXPRESSION "@msn_ylw-pushpin4"
      STYLE
        COLOR 250 0 0
        WIDTH 2.5
      END
      LABEL
        TEXT ("Distance: " + '[DISTANCE]' + ' meters ' + '#' + '[Name]')
        WRAP '#'
        SIZE MEDIUM
        COLOR 255 100 100
        POSITION AUTO
      END
    END
??.

Hi Jukka,

When i am trying to run the above ogr command as mentioned by you I am
getting an error

ogrinfo -dialect sqlite -sql "select st_length(geometry) from 'Fibertech
solution'" doc_test.kml
INFO: Open of `doc_test.kml'
      using driver `LIBKML' successful.
ERROR 1: In ExecuteSQL(): sqlite3_prepare(select st_length(geometry) from
'Fibertech solution'):
  no such function: st_length



Please let me know what the issue is. I have installed both libsqlite3 and
libspatialite.

Thanks!
Alok

I guess this must be a version problem.  That same command runs fine on my osgeolive8 machine.

Hi Jukka,

When i am trying to run the above ogr command as mentioned by you I am getting an error

ogrinfo -dialect sqlite -sql "select st_length(geometry) from 'Fibertech solution'" doc_test.kml
INFO: Open of `doc_test.kml'
      using driver `LIBKML' successful.
ERROR 1: In ExecuteSQL(): sqlite3_prepare(select st_length(geometry) from 'Fibertech solution'):
  no such function: st_length



Please let me know what the issue is. I have installed both libsqlite3 and libspatialite.

Thanks!
Alok

Hi,

The GDAL version is not what is essential but the version of the dependent Spatialite library. GDAL must be compiled with such Spatialite version that has support for ST_Length. The error means either that Spatialite is missing totally or that it is of too old version and in this case it is obvioustly the latter. However, there may be a simple solution.  ST-functions are new synonyms but your older Spatialite version may support the native name that Spatialite has used for the function https://www.gaia-gis.it/gaia-sins/xmlBlob/spatialite-sql-latest.html.

Try if SELECT glength(geometry) happens to work. Otherwise you must try to find a GDAL version that is compiled with more fresh Spatialite.

Message-ID: <CABqTJk__5fWZD8WiVgJe21XwpT15s3vfnqjRzBm85+w34dWgjQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,
reading the mapserver docs,
I understand that is possible to use every OGR datasource to access a
raster catalog using tileindex.

So I try to use a spatialite as tileindex.

I try this setting but without success.

    NAME "rt_ofc2k.ofc2k"
    STATUS OFF
    EXTENT 555870.99 4677465.00 752890.00 4924883.05
    TYPE raster
    CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
    CONNECTION "/pth-to-spatialite/db.sqlite"
    TILEINDEX 'table'
    TILEITEM 'location'

The error reported from log is:

[Mon Mar 16 16:49:58 2015].129679 msShapefileOpen(): Unable to access
file. (/home/..../table)

Perhaps is not true that an OGR spatialite can be used as tileindex source ?

Thx,

Hi Andrea,

I share your feelings, it is odd. Therefore I wrote this mail and now when I am lost I can search for "spatialite ogr tileindex rahkonen"

Hi,

I found this [1] wiki page about Rendering OSM data on Ubuntu 12.04 -
well, now I would like to ask if these instructions are still valid
for Ubuntu 14.04 or if I will run into problems following that guide?

Also I would like to ask: does exist some script (or some recipe for
any configuration management system) that automates the steps
described in the wiki page, what would make it possible to set this up
without too many options for errors?

Thank you very much for your attention,
Karma

Message-ID: <CAFnvfCC+pVLqp_FboL0Hoevu6+Rfgvoz8zkD36Nindih2CY1ag@mail.gmail.com>

Hi ALL,

We serve traffic lines that gets updated every 5 minutes from our feeds. We
would like to use Map Server to generate transparent tiles showing colored
polylines of the traffic.

I am newbie to Map Server, I got the server and workshop running and also I
think I have some good understanding of the map file and layers concept. I
have a question about integrating our traffic information as a data source
to the MapServer.
Important aspects for us:
1. Performance: since we are updating large areas every 5 minutes. We will
need throughput like 10K images per second. Does this sound okay?
2. Threads safety: my concern what happens if while updating the source,
the MapServer is actually rendering an image from old data. Any locks?

I understand our options are:
1. Data files: such as shape files or KML files.
2. Database: PostGIS for example.
3. Service that pulls data: WMS server - I didn't dig much here.

Thanks in advance for your help, some pointers or information to go further.

Best regards,
Ahmed

I?ll let others weigh in on throughput. Seems like that should be a matter of resources and how much hardware you can throw at the problem. Are you using MapCache to serve tiles? MapServer itself is good for rendering tiles or more likely, metatiles.

On thread safety MapServer itself isn?t doing any file locking. Presumably the OS or database is handling contention issues. I?d think the right way to go for data storage depends on your update process itself. If you want to incrementally tweak lines as new information becomes available then a database backend seems more reasonable ? I?d think you could detect change easier and perhaps only retile very specific areas as a result. If instead you?re getting a new copy of your entire dataset every 5 minutes then perhaps a shapefile would work best ? just replace the file and trigger retiling.

Hi Steve,

Thank you so much for the informative reply, much appreciated!

It's actually a new dataset copy every 5 minutes, it seems like replacing a
shape file would be most efficient.

We are not using MapCache, do you think it would be a good option for our
use case with this frequent updates?

Thanks again, Steve!

MapCache would be a *much* better option than using MapServer in tile mode. You still need something to render tiles (e.g. MapServer) but MapCache manages the tiles and is the interface between your client application and the tiled data. The brute force method would be replace the data and then blow away the cache and let MapCache (and MapServer) rebuild as users request tiles. The first request will result in MapCache making a call to MapServer to generate the tile/metatile, but subsequent requests for tiles will use the cached tiles.

Others on the list may well have more experience and better ideas.

In order to serve a lot of requests you generally need to cache. That would
be true of any query against a db, or against a shapefile. The point is,
you don't want to go to db or to disk.
In order make this happen for maps the usual pattern is to serve tiles. If
your data gets updated every 5 minutes, and in your case it is the whole
thing, not just some part. Then you need to make sure no map tile lives
longer than 5 minutes, actually less than 5 minutes.
One simple way to solve for this is to use a Content Delivery Network.
something like this:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/Expiration.html
You would point the CDN at your TMS or WMTS server. which would never have
to make the same tile more than once every few minutes.
Another related point would be to put the tile server behind a load
balancer, then point the CDN at the load balancer.
on Amazon that would be an ELB.

Message-ID: <55092D7B.4060700@neplan.ch>


Hello all,
I am using Mapserver since nearly 20 years and like it a lot.
QGIS is getting better and better and it would be nice to layout a map 
in QGIS and then convert it to a ".map"-file to be used with Mapserver. 
Does anybody know if this is possible?

Thanks to all,
Michael

Hi,

There is this plugin http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/rt_mapserver_exporter/
and old documentation http://docs.qgis.org/1.8/en/docs/user_manual/plugins/plugins_mapserver_export.html

Unfortunately the plugin makes mapfiles which were usable as-is with Mapserver 5.x but not since that. It also creates mapfiles which I do not like a lot because it is lazy with PROJECTION blocks etc. but that is at least partly matter of taste. But if you know how to write valid mapfiles for Mapserver v. 6.x and above then that plugin does make usable templates which can save time. It would be nice to get that plugin up-to-date.

Other alternatives which do not help with QGIS styles but are worth having a look:  http://scribeui.org/ and  http://gisinternals.com/mapmanager.html

Hi 

Looking at your old example I became curious.  Did You use gdaltindex to create the indexfile in spatialite or did You do in some other way?
The -f option in gdaltindex seems like a rather recent addition that I haven't tried.

The error reported from log is:

Perhaps is not true that an OGR spatialite can be used as tileindex source ?

Hi Michael,

I am with you on how important QGIS is for our workflow.

I am aware of a MapServer plugin that is designed for QGIS 2.x, however 
I use the standalone QGIS always, so I have yet to be able to test it 
(it is however available with OSGeo4W apparently).  Give it a try: 
https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/rt_mapserver_exporter/

The code for it lives on GitHub 
(https://github.com/faunalia/rt_mapserver_exporter), so maybe some 
passionate MapServer devs can contribute.

it works for file-datasources and there is a wrong definition for
postgis-connections ('USING UNIQUE epsg' instead of 'USING SRID epsg').
But you should have to look at the mapfile in any case.

For finding and using the extension in qgis you have enable the
experimantal plugins.

Hi,

I use a batch file which creates own shapefile tileindex for each orthophoto directory because I need separate shapefiles for another purpose, snippet here:
gdaltindex -t_srs epsg:3067 -write_absolute_path -src_srs_name src_srs %1.shp /%1/*.TIF

 and another batch file that combines them into Spatialite to be used with Mapserver:

ogr2ogr -f "SQLite" -dsco spatialite=yes -dsco init_with_epsg=yes -a_srs epsg:3067 ortho.sqlite dir_0.shp -nln orthos
ogr2ogr -update -append -a_srs epsg:3067 ortho.sqlite dir_1.shp -nln orthos
ogr2ogr -update -append -a_srs epsg:3067 ortho.sqlite dir_2.shp -nln orthos
...

Spatialite suits me perfectly because I can add some metadata into it and then make layers by attributes like acquisition year:
LAYER
NAME "orthos_2011"
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "/ortho.sqlite"
DATA "select * from orthos where year=2011"
...

The -f option in gdaltindex seems like a rather recent addition that I haven't tried.

Hi Andrea,

I share your feelings, it is odd. Therefore I wrote this mail and now when I am lost I can search for "spatialite ogr tileindex rahkonen"

The error reported from log is:

Perhaps is not true that an OGR spatialite can be used as tileindex source ?

Thank you so much, Mark! That's a very convenient/effiecient architecture
for us since our engine is already in AWS. Thanks again for your help!

Hi,

There is this plugin http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/rt_mapserver_exporter/
and old documentation http://docs.qgis.org/1.8/en/docs/user_manual/plugins/plugins_mapserver_export.html

Unfortunately the plugin makes mapfiles which were usable as-is with Mapserver 5.x but not since that. It also creates mapfiles which I do not like a lot because it is lazy with PROJECTION blocks etc. but that is at least partly matter of taste. But if you know how to write valid mapfiles for Mapserver v. 6.x and above then that plugin does make usable templates which can save time. It would be nice to get that plugin up-to-date.

Other alternatives which do not help with QGIS styles but are worth having a look:  http://scribeui.org/ and  http://gisinternals.com/mapmanager.html

I wonder the same, especially seeing that plugin code living on GitHub. 
  Think of how QGIS has become the frontend for GRASS, it could(should!) 
be the frontend for MapServer.

There is definitely huge momentum in the QGIS community (I've even been 
asked to attend their first QGIS conference, and followup dev meeting, 
in May).  I can imagine/dream of a joint MapServer/QGIS code sprint, 
totally funded (as a few of the OpenLayers3 sprints were) happening 
someday. Would be amazing.

I am all for QGIS-MapServer integration!
As an aside, getting QGIS styling per se into MapServer can of course also
be done through SLD: QGIS SLD export is pretty good -- although of course
will only give you layer styles, not a full map setup.

Hi,

Hi,

The SLD output of QGIS can be good but I am not so sure how good Mapserver is with importing SLD. That could be tested through WMS GetMap and &SLD= or with &SLD_BODY= but there is no tool for converting SLD into layer styles as text which could be saved and used in static mapfiles, or is there?

Aihe: Re: [mapserver-users] Is there a way to convert a QGIS layout into a ".map" file?

I am all for QGIS-MapServer integration!
As an aside, getting QGIS styling per se into MapServer can of course also be done through SLD: QGIS SLD export is pretty good -- although of course will only give you layer styles, not a full map setup.

Dear all,
I am facing a serious problem with Mapserver (both 6.2 and 6.4.1) and data retrieval via WFS 1.1.0.
We have a client running which is taking the data as GML and importing it into GRASS. The switched order of axis makes it impossible to overlay and thus process data.

The following request gets back data in yx axis order:

http://mapservices-ludwigsburg.tudor.lu/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/mapserv/ludwigsburg/map_file/LB_MUSIC_OWS.map& <http://mapservices-ludwigsburg.tudor.lu/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/mapserv/ludwigsburg/map_file/LB_MUSIC_OWS.map&>

TYPENAME=LB_city_boundary&
BBOX=48,9,49,10,urn:x-ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326&
SRSNAME=EPSG:31467

I wonder if this is a bug or feature due to the WFS 1.1.0 axis order specification?


If I send the same request to a instance of Geoserver, what I get back is xy axis order:

http://geoserver.tudor.lu/geoserver/ludwigsburg/ows?SERVICE=wfs& <http://geoserver.tudor.lu/geoserver/ludwigsburg/ows?SERVICE=wfs&>

TYPENAME=ludwigsburg:lb_city_boundary&
BBOX=48,9,49,10,urn:x-ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326&
SRSNAME=EPSG:31467

I also found the master thesis of Weichand [1] where in Section 4.3.5 he is describing this issue as well. But Geoserver has a mechanism to treat EPSG:31467 as xy. The correct order of the CRS (by definition) is yx, but this is not used like that in Germany.

Can you give any ideas about the behaviour of Mapserver and how to get around this axis order issue?

You can do this conversion by python-mapscript. The rt_mapserver_plugins
uses this technique.

By the way the SLD export contains a bug on negative values (all ready
reported by Maarten Tromp).

The SLD output of QGIS can be good but I am not so sure how good Mapserver is with importing SLD. That could be tested through WMS GetMap and &SLD= or with &SLD_BODY= but there is no tool for converting SLD into layer styles as text which could be saved and used in static mapfiles, or is there?

MapServer handles application of external SLD just fine.

I noticed the use of Python mapscript by that plugin, very nice.  There 
must be some way we can get these two project teams (QGIS and MapServer) 
to work together.

Hi,

As you said, EPSG:31467 is officially a system with northing-easting axis order
http://epsg-registry.org/report.htm?type=selection&entity=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::31467&reportDetail=short&style=urn:uuid:report-style:default-with-code&style_name=OGP%20Default%20With%20Code&title=EPSG:31467

The service is behaving as it should according to WFS 1.1.0 standard and as you also said, Mapserver does not have an override to force the longitude-latitude of easting-northing order as Geoserver has if srsname is given with the short format EPSG:31467.

However, you can use WFS version 1.0.0 which returns data always in longitude-latitude of easting-northing. Remember to use same order with BBOX

Hi,

>Not sure if this is what you meant though?

I meant that I did not know if these two things can be done:

1) I did not know if I can create styles for a layer with QGIS, save style as SLD and that SLD without any further modification with Mapserver.  So I had to test it and it seems to work at least with a rather simple SLD . I used the Geoserver demo data "states.shp" as data and the SLD that I made with QGIS is here http://latuviitta.org/documents/states_qgis.sld

2) I did not know if it is possible to convert styles from SLD into CLASSes and STYLEs as they are used in mapfiles but deduikertjes wrote "You can do this conversion by python-mapscript". Well, "you" there does not mean me because I can't do anything with python-mapscript but if QGIS exporter is using that under the hood then the answer is Yes also for this question.

The SLD output of QGIS can be good but I am not so sure how good Mapserver is with importing SLD. That could be tested through WMS GetMap and &SLD= or with &SLD_BODY= but there is no tool for converting SLD into layer styles as text which could be saved and used in static mapfiles, or is there?

Hi all

Iam using Postgres database to diasplay districts on the google map

It is working.
But now i want to display only one district instead of 50.
In my database there are 50 districts data, but i want to display only one.
And also i have to use the same mapfile in to 3 projects, in one project
all the districts has to be displayed and in one project only one district
has to be display.

How to do this
plz send me the code

Rishi,
>From a MAP file approach, you can use the FILTER tag inside of the LAYER section:
FILTER [string]   
      - This parameter allows for data specific attribute filtering that is doneat the same time spatial filtering is done, but before any CLASSexpressions are evaluated. For OGR and shapefiles the string is simplya mapserver regular expression. For spatial databases the string is aSQL WHERE clause that is valid with respect to the underlying database.
      -    

      - For example: FILTER ([type]=?road? and [size]<2)
In a static way, you will need to have two MAP files (one without FILTER and another with FILTER) and you have to configure each project to point to the right MAP file.

In other threads of this list, it was suggested to use a subquery in DATA 
instead of using FILTER, when postgis is used as a datasource.
http://mapserver.org/fr/input/vector/postgis.html#data-access-connection-method

If you want to use only one mapfile than runtime variable substitution can 
be used

Hi 

I have created an issue in github. I am uploading the test map files in to
this post ( I could not work out a way to upload mapfiles in to github)

https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/issues/5081

I have attached two map files and two map part files which can be used to
reproduce this bug. 

Map file layer_group.map uses layer_group.map.part which has LAYER_GROUPS
defined.

Map file no_layer_group.map uses no_layer_group.map.part which has no
LAYER_GROUPS defined.

I use the following command line in my server to time the getcapabilities
requests.

/time /web/cgi-bin/mapserv -nh
"QUERY_STRING=map=/web/ms4w/apps/tutorial/htdocs/layer_group.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities"/


/time /web/cgi-bin/mapserv -nh
"QUERY_STRING=map=/web/ms4w/apps/tutorial/htdocs/no_layer_group.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities"/
layer_group.map
<http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/file/n5194857/layer_group.map>

Another beta should be along soon (within a week?). Feedback/testing has been pretty slow to come thus far... The more of that we get the faster the release process will go.

Hi Phil: Just getting back though email after being out on vacation. The queryByFilter method takes a native MapServer FILTER string and applies it against the layer. It does not process OGC filters, never has. The OGC filter handling code translates an OGC filter into MapServer filter string which is in turn processed by MapServer (and/or the associated driver). This is all much more straightforward in 7.0. I can try and whip up a quick example in Perl MapScript if that would help.

Seems like we could consider exposing an OGC filter -> MapServer filter string and then that would get handed off to queryByFilter. I think this would have to be a layer-specific method since that context is probably important in the translation.

Subject: [mapserver-users] queryByLayer - is it a valid method on layerObj?

All,

The Mapscript SWIG interface on the layerObj defines a queryByFilter method as
  public int queryByFilter(mapObj map, string arg1)
where arg1 is supposedly the filter to apply when querying the layer, analogous to
    public int queryByRect(mapObj map, rectObj rect)

Where is this method documented? It is not described in either the 6.4 or 7.0 documentation. Based upon the history of the code that I'm attempting to bring back to life the method was probably documented in MapServer 4.x or 5.x. Note that is still visible through SWIG.

How should it be used? I tried it with a WFS OGC filter and the log file showed (ignore line wrapping here):

  [Mon Mar 09 12:18:35 2015].727000 yyparse(): Expression parser error. syntax error
  [Mon Mar 09 12:18:35 2015].727000 msEvalExpression: Expression parser error.
     Failed to parse expression:
     <Filter><Intersect><PropertyName>Geometry</PropertyName><gml:Polygon>
       <gml:outerBoundaryIs><gml:LinearRing><gml:coordinates>
         -88.0865046533,37.5555143852 -88.0860204771,37.5600435404

         -88.0865046533,37.5555143852
       </gml:coordinates></gml:LinearRing></gml:outerBoundaryIs>
     </gml:Polygon></Intersect></Filter>

I tried with a much simpler mapfile filter and got much the same result:

  [Mon Mar 09 12:53:22 2015].470000 yyparse(): Expression parser error. syntax error
  [Mon Mar 09 12:53:22 2015].470000 msEvalExpression: Expression parser error.
    Failed to parse expression: ([mukey] in (713970, 713898))

Do any of you have a working example of its use?

Is there a way to use the OGC filter directly within mapscript code? That is ultimately what I'm after.

Thanks.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for getting back to me on this. I would be happy to take a look, I suspect there will be a good learning curve for me to make sense of the architecture.

Sorry, but after weeks of reading and trying solutions, I really need some help. I have a shapefile in RD New Amersfoort. I understand that there are a lot of problems with the conversion, however my mapserver output is empty and stays empty for weeks now.

 Yep that works. Staring blind for weeks you miss the simplest thing.

So for the real conversion, can anyone advice what projection I should use,
the simple epsg:28992 or the complex transformation. Seems there is a
standard 100m shift in the epsg:28992

Message-ID: <CAENYpGaLGxg3i1k9LkSx1ixc+Lur_o1YMFw6OuE+iecwNmxH0w@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,
I'm using the virtual plugin of OGR to consume a web service who return CSV
coordinates and mapserver is able to draw the points without any problems.

The connection definition in my mapfile is something like this.
CONNECTION "<OGRVRTDataSource><OGRVRTLayer
name='select'><SrcDataSource>CSV:/vsicurl/http://<my
server>/service.php</SrcDataSource><GeometryType>wkbPoint</GeometryType><SrcLayer>select</SrcLayer><LayerSRS>WGS84</LayerSRS><GeometryField
encoding='PointFromColumns' x='PHOTO_LONGITUDE'
y='PHOTO_LATITUDE'/></OGRVRTLayer></OGRVRTDataSource>"

I would like to pass arguments to that CONNETION string so I could build
dynamic request.  something like this
CONNECTION "<OGRVRTDataSource><OGRVRTLayer
name='select'><SrcDataSource>CSV:/vsicurl/http://<my server>/service.php?
*param1=%PARAM1%&amp;param2=%PARAM2%*</SrcDataSource><GeometryType>wkbPoint</GeometryType><SrcLayer>select</SrcLayer><LayerSRS>WGS84</LayerSRS><GeometryField
encoding='PointFromColumns' x='PHOTO_LONGITUDE'
y='PHOTO_LATITUDE'/></OGRVRTLayer></OGRVRTDataSource>"

I know the argument values (in my example PARAM1 and PARAM2) are OK because
I'm seeing them in the error message thrown by mapserver (see below).  But
mapserver refuse to render the points:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>

Martin,

Have you looked at the CGI runtime substitution docs?: http://mapserver.org/cgi/runsub.html

Make sure that you look at the validation section near the bottom.  If the substitution works with CGI WMS, you will need validation.

I believe the variable substitution is working since you see the 
coordinate values in the exception message received from the server.

The error message says that it cannot find layer "select" in the OGR 
data source, so it may very well be that it ends up being called 
something else for some reason.

I'd suggest hardcoding the coordinate values in your VRT and starting by 
making the VRT works with hardcoded values. Once it works, put the 
variables back in.

Just a guess, but ogrinfo on that VRT may help figure out the source of 
the problem.

Daniel

Subject: [mapserver-users] ms7 How to use FILTER
Message-ID: <OF1F43EBC5.0E63C2D8-ON85257E14.0048A182-85257E14.00493C24@isn.rtss.qc.ca>

I'm confused on how to use FILTER when datasource is postgis or Oracle 
Spatial (Native Connection)

In an old thread, I was told to not use FILTER, but use a WHERE clause in 
the Data statement.
In the ms7 Mapfile-Layer-Data doc, I see for Oracle
"Note that there are important performance impacts when using spatial 
subqueries however. Try using MapServer?s FILTER whenever possible 
instead."

I remember I had a bug with MS6 when using FILTER using WFS. A getfeature 
on the layer with a spatial or logical filter, the FILTEr in the mapfile 
was overwritten.
Please, how should we define/use FILTER int a mapfile with postgis and 
also oracle (using native connection, not ogr)?
THANKS!

MapServer FILTERs are now only written using MapServer expression syntax (e.g. ("[someitem]" != "someval")). Drivers can support translation capabilities to create native SQL under the hood. This was done to standardize the syntax across all drivers. Prior to 7.0 the syntax varied by driver. In addition, FILTER values are preserved when used with WFS or native MapServer attribute queries.

With database backends there has been little reason to use FILTERs since you could often just extend the DATA statement.

Note that if need to you can still define a native SQL independently of the DATA statement using the processing tag "native_filter", for example:

  PROCESSING "native_filter=native SQL string"

This is also preserved with WFS. Does this help?

Subject: [mapserver-users] ms7 How to use FILTER

I'm confused on how to use FILTER when datasource is postgis or Oracle Spatial (Native Connection)

In an old thread, I was told to not use FILTER, but use a WHERE clause in the Data statement.
In the ms7 Mapfile-Layer-Data doc, I see for Oracle
"Note that there are important performance impacts when using spatial subqueries however. Try using MapServer's FILTER<http://mapserver.org/mapfile/layer.html#filter> whenever possible instead."

I remember I had a bug with MS6 when using FILTER using WFS. A getfeature on the layer with a spatial or logical filter, the FILTEr in the mapfile was overwritten.

Please, how should we define/use FILTER int a mapfile with postgis and also oracle (using native connection, not ogr)?

THANKS!

Thanks Steve, yes it helps!

If an SQL query is needed, would you suggest to do it in the DATA 
statement as a subquery or use PROCESSING ?native_filter=native SQL 
string?

With Postgres I'd use the DATA statement. I don't use Oracle so someone else might be in a better position to comment.

Thank you David and Daniel for helping me.

I found the problem.  The error message was pointing at the layer 'select'
but it was the dot (.) int the coordinates of the parameters that was
causing the problem.  Maybe an escaping problem related to the
OGRVRTDataSource XML string.

Daniel:  What do you think is the best way to encode point in a csv (using
the virtual format of OGR) for mapserver:
1) x y coordinates with  encoding="PointFromColumns"
2) point in WKT string in the csv
3) point encoded WKB string in the csv
4) maybe something else BUT it must be in a csv format

cheers,

MartinO

I have used only #1 with CSV and it works great and feels most natural 
for a CSV. I can't speak for WKT and WKB encoding in a CSV, never tried it.

Days ago I voted to keep native filters in MS7 via a processing instruction. It's value is a SQL expression that is ANDed to every query MS builds. The intended use is mainly to build dynamic filters when using MapScript or the C API. This avoids parsing and modifying the DATA statement.
So into DATA goes the main query including subqueries and static WHERE clauses. The FILTER statement contains a MapServer expression either from MAP file, build dynamically by the CGI (e.g. a translated WFS filter) or set via MapScript.
