MapServer Tutorial——MapServer7.2.1教程学习——第一节用例实践:Example1.5 Adding a raster layer
一、前言
MapServer不仅支持矢量数据(point, lines, polygons, and annotations),同时也支持栅格数据。通过GDAL库,MapServer可以输入输出多种类型的栅格数据。
在4.x版本前,MapServer输出栅格数据仅限于单个图层、灰度图像或伪彩色图像。
当前版本支持RGB图像和多光谱图像(多层级multi-layer)。此示例演示如何选择使用多光谱数据时要显示的图层。官网地址:https://www.mapserver.org/tutorial/example1-5.html
注意 在使用RGB和多光谱图像时,可能会出现明显的性能问题。
因为MapServer5.x后使用AGG或GD2.x来生成输出的图像,它还支持RGB(24位或真彩色)输出。因此,除了8位(灰度图像或伪彩色图像)png8之外,现在还可以使用png(真颜色)进行输出。此示例使用PNG作为ImageType。
注意 与RGB输入一样,与PNG8相比,使用PNG时可能会出现明显的性能问题。
MapServer实际上也可以使用gdal生成输出图像,但这是另一个主题。如果您想了解更多信息,请查看mapfile引用中的outputformat对象。
二、创建站点Example1.5 Adding a raster layer
1.文件准备
在cmd中输入:cd /d E:SvnWorkspaceLY_WEB_GISranchesDocumentsms4w-mapserver-for-wimdows elease-1911-x64-gdal-2-3-3-mapserver-7-2-1apps
在cmd中输入:md Example1.5
在cmd中输入:cd Example1.5
在cmd中输入:md data
在cmd中输入:md logs
在cmd中输入:md fonts
在cmd中输入:md symbols
在cmd中输入:cd.>web.config
在cmd中输入:cd.>example1_5.map
在cmd中输入:cd data
在cmd中输入:md raster
修改web.config的内容如下
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <handlers> <add name="MapServerFastCgi" path="*" verb="*" type="" modules="FastCgiModule"
scriptProcessor="E:SvnWorkspaceLY_WEB_GISranchesDocumentsms4w-mapserver-for-wimdows elease-1911-x64-gdal-2-3-3-mapserver-7-2-1inmapserv.exe"
resourceType="Unspecified" requireAccess="Script" allowPathInfo="false" preCondition="" /> </handlers> <caching enabled="true" enableKernelCache="true" /> </system.webServer> </configuration>
将 app utorialfonts 中的所有内容拷贝到 appExample1.5fonts 文件夹中(字体文件)
将 app utorialdata 中的 states_ugl.dbf、states_ugl.shp、states_ugl.shx 拷贝到 appExample1.5data 文件夹中(数据文件)
将 app utorialsymbols 中的 symbols35.sym 拷贝到 appExample1.5symbols 文件夹中(符号文件)
将 app utorialdata aster 中的 mod09a12003161_ugl_ll_8bit.tif、mod09a12003161_ugl_ll_idxa.tif 拷贝到 appExample1.5data aster 文件夹中(图层数据文件)
2.在IIS中创建站点Example1.5
应用程序池名称:Example1.5;站点端口:8015
3.给应用程序池读写log文件夹权限
在cmd中输入:icacls "E:SvnWorkspaceLY_WEB_GISranchesDocumentsms4w-mapserver-for-wimdows elease-1911-x64-gdal-2-3-3-mapserver-7-2-1appsExample1.5logs" /grant "IIS AppPoolExample1.5":(OI)(CI)RW
4.修改example1_5.map文件
# The annotated map file (sort of) # Created by Pericles S. Nacionales for the MapServer tutorial # 20050408 # # MapServer map file uses the pound sign (#) to denote the start of a line # comment--each line that needs to be commented has to be prepended with a "#". # # Map files begin with MAP keyword to signify the start of the map object. # Well, the entire map file is THE map object. Enclosed between MAP and END # at the very bottom of this map file, are keyword/value pairs and other # objects. MAP IMAGETYPE PNG EXTENT -97.238976 41.619778 -82.122902 49.385620 SIZE 400 300 SHAPEPATH "./data" IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255 FONTSET "./fonts/fonts.list" SYMBOLSET "./symbols/symbols35.sym" # Layer objects are defined beneath the map object. You need at least one # layer defined in your map file before you can display a map... You can # define as many layers as you'd like although a limit is typically hard-coded # in map.h in the MapServer source. The default limit is set at 100. You'd # have to have a very specialized application to need more than 100 layers in # your application. # # Start of LAYER DEFINITIONS --------------------------------------------- LAYER # States polygon layer begins here NAME states DATA states_ugl STATUS OFF TYPE POLYGON # CLASSITEM defines the non-spatial attribute that you will be using to # separate a layer into classes.

You will be # using two values in the CLASS attribute to separate the classes (also # called themes) used in this layer--land and water. CLASSITEM is used in # association with the EXPRESSION parameter in the CLASS object. See below. CLASSITEM "CLASS" # The class object is defined within the layer object.

STYLE COLOR 232 232 232 END END END # States polygon layer ends here # In addition to vector data (shapefiles are vector data), MapServer supports # a host of raster formats. In GIS world, one of the most common raster # formats is GeoTIFF, a TIFF image with geospatial headers. MapServer also # supports JPEG, PNG, GIF, and other common formats. Other raster formats # supported by MapServer include ESRI Arc/Info grid, HDF and HDF-EOS, NetCDF, # Generic raster binaries, OGC Web Map Service (WMS) layers, etc. Pretty much # any raster format you can think of is probably supported, thanks to the # impressive Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL, pronounced "GOODALL" # or GOODLE?). More information on GDAL is available at http://www.gdal.org. # # MapServer 4.x can read and display bitmapped (like GIFs), RGB/A (true # color), and multispectral (images with more than 3 bands, like raw LandSat # images) rasters. LAYER # MODIS raster layer begins here NAME modis DATA "raster/mod09a12003161_ugl_ll_8bit.tif" STATUS OFF TYPE RASTER PROCESSING "BANDS=1,2,3" OFFSITE 71 74 65 END # MODIS raster layer ends here LAYER # States line layer begins here NAME states_line DATA states_ugl STATUS OFF TYPE LINE CLASSITEM "CLASS" CLASS NAME 'State Boundary' EXPRESSION 'land' STYLE SYMBOL 'line5' COLOR 64 64 64 SIZE 1 END END END # States line layer ends here # Labels can be defined in its own layer. This is useful if, say, you want # to label a polygon layer that's covered by another layer. By keeping the # label separate from the polygon and placing it near the bottom of the map # file (so its drawn on, or near the, top), you can still see the label even # though you might not be able to see the polygon. It is also a good # alternate to point symbols. # # A label layer is actually defined with ANNOTATION type (This is derived from # points, Node IDs for lines, or polygon IDs). LAYER # States label layer begins here NAME states_label DATA states_ugl STATUS OFF TYPE POLYGON #ANNOTATION 此类型的LAYER已经被移除。此处需要表达的是标签,请查看上一章《MapServer Tutorial——MapServer7.2.1教程学习——第一节用例实践:Example 1.4 Labeling the Map》
#LAYER 官网:https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/layer.html ,定位到 TYPE 对象处查看。 CLASSITEM "CLASS" # Just like CLASSITEM, LABELITEM defines the database attribute that you # will be using to draw labels.

5.浏览查看
在浏览器中输入:http://localhost:8015/mapserv?map=../apps/Example1.5/example1_5.map&layer=states&layer=modis&layer=states_line&layer=states_label&mode=map
三、MapFile文件解析
1.文件结构
MAP LAYER #1-------------LAYER #2----|----LAYER #3--------LAYER #4 (states) (modis) (states_line) (states_label) | | | (land) CLASS-|-CLASS (water) |-CLASS |-CLASS | | | | STYLE-| |-STYLE |-STYLE STYLE-|-LABEL
当前案例分为四个图层:
-
-
- tsates用来展示几何区域
- modis展示tiff图像文件,栅格数据
- states_line展示的是CLASSITEM=CLASS,EXPRESSION=land 的线条数据,其中线条符号为 line5
-
# 12 Symbol NAME 'line5' Type VECTOR TRANSPARENT 0 Points 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 END END
#line的数据类型为 VECTOR 矢量数据,详情请看:https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html中 Symbols of TYPE vector and ellipse
#同时,请查看:https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/symbol.html
#此处可以理解为构建了一个矢量区域,有个坐标系,点(1,0)、(0,1)、(0,1)、(1,0)画了一个矩形,然而此矩形看起来没有宽度,长为 2 的开方(三角形勾股定理)
#同时,将这个矢量矩形(看起来就是短的线)中心基于 dbf 数据中 CLASS = land 的 POLYGON 中的点数据来展示,这样看起来就给 land 外面画了一个线。
2.对象参数解释
IMAGETYPE
MapServer生成输出数据的格式。在cmd中输入:mapserv -v 查看。值PNG是值输出24位PNG或真色PNG。
SYMBOLSET
SYMBOL集合的文件位置。可以使绝对路径,也可以是和mapfile(example1_5.map)的相对路径。字符集位置。可以先了解一下SYMBOL,资料如下:
SYMBOL的讲解:https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/symbol.html
创建字符集文件:https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html
DATA raster/mod09a12003161_ugl_ll_8bit.tif
在NAME为modis的图层中,添加的是一个GeoTIFF图层数据。MapServer支持矢量数据和栅格数据。这个图层为栅格类型。这个图层是通过GDAL的库来完成支持的。MapSeerver上不同的栅格支持和生成请查看:https://www.mapserver.org/input/raster.html#raster
modis数据了解请进:https://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/
TYPE RASTER
在NAME为modis的图层中,当前LAYER的数据类型。此处使用的是RASTER。同时在LAYER中,MapServer还支持POLYGON,LINE,POINT,LABEL中支持ANNOTATION等。
PROCESSING "BANDS=1,2,3"
这个位置我觉得很难理解。查了相关资料。大概意思是,MapServer调用GDAL库来处理tiff图像,并输出显示。
PROCESSING表示进程。根据进程值来决定调用那个库。请查看:https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/layer.html 中PROCESSING 段落。
BANDS表示波段,GDAL源码中通过RasterIO来读取波段数据。
TIFF文件时位图,在windows中的存储格式为BGR,然后MapServer根据参数调用时,对参数做了调整顺序的相关处理。1,2,3表示Red,Green和blue三种波段选择。
具体的我也不大清楚,总之尝试后,发现1,2,3在浏览器中显示的是和直接看到tiff相差不远,只是灰色的底色变成白色的。
同时也请查看:https://www.mapserver.org/input/raster.html 中 BANDS=red_or_grey[,green,blue[,alpha]] 处的解释。
OFFSITE
设置当前LAYER层的背景颜值组成。(Sets the color index to treat as transparent for raster layers.)
告诉MapServer按照像素值渲染背景(或忽略)。
想了半天没弄懂,最后乱改这个值也没发现什么。知道读到or ignore之后。忽略,这个tif文件正好背景颜色值RGB是:71 74 65 ,是否设置OFFSITE值和背景颜色值一样时,做忽略处理。
但是在设置为其他颜色值时,却还是显示当前tif文件的背景颜色。这就十分尴尬了,是否是因为当前tif文件有背景颜色,然后将OFFSITE设置的颜色给覆盖了。
颜色组成分多种形式,当前案例是:Indexed Color Image(伪彩色图像)。还有:RGB、RGBA等。
四、RGB vs Indexed Color Image 真彩色和伪彩色的对比
1.关于伪彩色,可以查看:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexed_color
2.修改mapfile的相关配置,将
DATA "raster/mod09a12003161_ugl_ll_8bit.tif"
STATUS DEFAULT
TYPE RASTER
PROCESSING "BANDS=1,2,3"
OFFSITE 71 74 65
修改为
DATA "raster/mod09a12003161_ugl_ll_idxa.tif"
STATUS DEFAULT
TYPE RASTER
OFFSITE 70 74 66
看看效果
显示的效果已经改变。去掉GDAL的程序处理后,也不显示背景色了。
五、后记
感觉模拟样例做一个很简单,但是弄清楚相关的mapfile对象却很头痛,涉及的知识点太多,不理解的位置太多。比如:OFFSITE就不动。继续深入学习,相信随着了解的越来越多,就会知道其作用。
