[mapserver-users] Issue - Style constantly changes using Mapserver 7.6

[Laframboise,Felix (ECCC)]

Hi,

I am currently using GDAL 3.1.3 and Mapserver 7.6.2 on a Ubuntu machine. I created a layer using a GRIB2 file as the source data.

When I tested the layer on QGIS 3.20, I noticed that it does not output correctly. When I'm zooming or moving the viewing extent to visualize the layer or data, the style constantly changes. I tested with WMS GetMap requests through a browser and the output issue is still there. See example GIF here: https://pasteboard.co/wAmyAUDyEeZs.gif

I validated the different classes (CLASS) in the style used in the mapfile and everything seems to be in order. From what I understand, Mapserver seems to do some interpolation, but I can't quite understand how it affects the output on that scale. I investigated and checked if the source file was the issue, but from what I see it doesn't seem like it's the case, as I tested with other data from another source file in NetCDF, and the issue is still there.

I created a test case to show you the issue here:


·       Sample mapfile: https://pastebin.com/KC3UkR4m


·       GRIB2 Source file (available here: https://dd.weather.gc.ca/model_hrdps/continental/grib2/00/001/) for the source data (using following patterns) : /CMC_hrdps_continental_PTYPE_SFC_0_ps2.5km_*.grib2/

Do you have an idea what could be the issue or how the interpolation works, and how to solve this issue?

Thanks a lot in advance for your answer(s)!
