I could not access your sample images. <br>
I do not know if <a href="http://demo.mapserver.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">demo.mapserver.org</a> is GPKG based, but I do not see any difference between these two outputs:<br>

Aihe: [MapServer-users] WMS with a GPKG-based layer : different responses, dependending on version (1.1.1 vs 1.3.0)<br>
<br>
Hi all,1) Problem description:Our system is offering an OSM layer, based on a WGS84 GPKG (Z=0 to Z=13).I sent two WMS requests, where the only difference is the standard version :WMS V1.1.1 request:<a href="https://xxx/layers/baselayers/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.1&request=GetMap&Layers=osm_4326&Styles=&SRS=EPSG:4326&Format=image/png&BBOX=45,22.5,67.5,45&Width=1024&Height=1024WMS" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://xxx/layers/baselayers/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.1&request=GetMap&Layers=osm_4326&Styles=&SRS=EPSG:4326&Format=image/png&BBOX=45,22.5,67.5,45&Width=1024&Height=1024WMS</a> V1.3.0 request:<a href="https://xxx/layers/baselayers/wms?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetMap&Layers=osm_4326&Styles=&CRS=EPSG:4326&Format=image/png&BBOX=22.5,45,45,67.5&Width=1024&Height=1024" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://xxx/layers/baselayers/wms?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetMap&Layers=osm_4326&Styles=&CRS=EPSG:4326&Format=image/png&BBOX=22.5,45,45,67.5&Width=1024&Height=1024</a> I observe some differences :V1.1.1: <a href="https://pasteboard.co/JjKbU4yvSxrM.png,Labels" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pasteboard.co/JjKbU4yvSxrM.png,Labels</a> are easy to read: mapcache/mapserver is selecting the right zoom level in the GPKG file.V1.3.0: <a href="https://pasteboard.co/XzpHSJjSTiQV.png.Labels" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pasteboard.co/XzpHSJjSTiQV.png.Labels</a> are much too small and not readable. It seems that mapcache/mapserver is selecting a higher zoom level than expected and down-sample the image.I do not understand why the rendering is not the same.As far as I know, WMS requests do not have standard parameters which give a *direct* access to zoom layer, resolution or DPI.I tried to add some parameters to my request, with no impact on the response: DPI=240MAP_RESOLUTION=240FORMAT_OPTIONS=dpi:240.I also tried to add parameters in the "MAP block":RESOLUTIONDEFRESOLUTION2) Software environment:Mapserver 8.2.0Mapcache 1.14.0Gdal V3.8.4Alma Linux V83) Map file excerptMAP NAME "baselayers_wms" STATUS ON SIZE 256 256 EXTENT -180.0 -90.0 180.0 90.0 UNITS dd# DEFRESOLUTION 200# RESOLUTION 144 PROJECTION "init=epsg:4326" END4) My questions:Why do I get different responses between V1.1.1 and V1.3.0 WMS requests ?Are there any configuration parameters which have default values in one version and not in the other ?I would be glad to have some hints to get better WMS 1.3.0 responsesSincerelyPhilippeThe information in this e-mail is confidential.
