02:16:55 Peut: hello, i have a question about tilecache seeding, anyone here who can help me? ( I have 10 zoomlevels, tilecache_seed.py only appears to generate tiles for zoomlevel 0 to 6 ( skipping 7-9 ), allthough i'm not convinced that they are actually being generated )
04:19:46 Roseofsorrow: Hey all
04:19:49 Roseofsorrow: Hey all
04:19:56 Roseofsorrow: Hey all
04:20:02 Roseofsorrow: Is anyone here?
04:20:21 Roseofsorrow: \help
04:20:38 jmckenna: still sleepy, but some are here : )
04:20:50 Roseofsorrow: Do you know how I can get to the python channel?
04:21:27 Roseofsorrow: I need someone who understands python proficiently
04:21:31 jmckenna: use the "join" command?
04:21:44 jmckenna: this is a channel for MapServer users
04:21:55 Roseofsorrow: can you put a example in "xxxxxx"
04:21:59 Roseofsorrow: so i can see how to type it
04:22:12 jmckenna: "/join #channelname"
04:22:24 Roseofsorrow: and i go no where?
04:22:26 Roseofsorrow: woot
04:22:28 Roseofsorrow: >.<
04:37:28 Peut: is there a way to make sure that symbols used to 'decorate' the lines of a polygon are not drawn outside the region of that polyon?
07:10:37 greg___: hi folks, i'm using mapserver's wcs to return an ENVI raster. When running gdal on the command line, it also creates a header file with lines/cols etc which i need. Is there anyway of being able to get this .hdr file in the wcs request? I suppose it would be similar to having a tiff file and an associated txg file. i;e, how would you get both of them? thanks
07:13:27 FrankW: greg___: are you using WCS 1.0 or 1.1?
07:13:43 FrankW: In *theory* in WCS 1.1 you can return multi-file sets like this as multipart mime.
07:16:42 greg___: FrankW:i'm using 1.1.0
07:17:19 FrankW: How are you examining the return result? Are you getting a multi-part mime package?
07:18:52 FrankW: There does seem to be some level of support for returning multiple files in the MapServer WCS 1.1 support code.
07:19:07 greg___: i'm using curl on the command line. i,e 'curl -o output.envi "wcs request..."
07:19:56 greg___: which gives the image, but not the georef info i need ( whiich is in the hdr file )
07:20:15 FrankW: I see in the ENVI driver that the header file is not being handled via the VSI*L api which is used by mapserver for virtualized io.
07:20:26 FrankW: I think a modest fix would be required in the ENVI driver to make this work.
07:20:34 FrankW: How much of an issue is this for you?
07:20:59 greg___: erm, its not hugely important.
07:21:56 greg___: I could just use gdal on the command line, but thought it would be good to try and use wcs
07:23:08 greg___: is there a fudge i could do, tto tell gdal to put the header at the top of the image file? ( would this be a question for the gdal user group )
07:23:19 FrankW: no, there is no such fudge.
07:24:22 FrankW: greg___: I have filed: http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/3274
07:24:25 sigabrt: Title: #3274 ( ENVI Driver is not fully using VSI*L API ) - GDAL - Trac ( at trac.osgeo.org )
07:24:28 FrankW: but it is not clear when it will be acted on.
07:26:48 greg___: ok. I'll have a look to see if there is a similar file format whereby the header is included within the file. Thankyou.
07:27:46 FrankW: You might try EHDR ( ESRI .hdr labelled BIL )
07:31:43 greg___: ok - i'll give that a go.
08:07:21 greg___: FrankW: I've tried the EHDR option, but the header file isn't incorporated into the image file ( it is seperate ). Am i overlooking something obvious here?
08:08:12 FrankW: Is it returned in the multipart mime result?
08:13:14 greg___: erm, if you mean the image?, then i don't think so. Just dn values.
08:14:22 FrankW: You mentioned you are fetching the result with curl. Are you getting a multi-part mime response to the WCS request?
08:28:05 greg___: <FrankW> i'll do some more reading up on this, as so i know what is going on. I'll be able to hopefully answer questions then! cheers : )
08:28:48 FrankW: ok
