Printable Maps from MapViewer - 600dpi

Hi -
We would like to create print quality maps from MapViewer in the 600 DPI range. We've noticed that MapViewer will bomb out if we specify an image size over 2000 px in size, which means that at 600 dpi, the largest image would be about 3 inches square.
Also, as larger images are created (larger meaning more pixels x pixels), the markers and text size get relatively smaller. I would think the size of these features would be based on the DPI setting when they are rendered. Is there any way to change the DPI for a request, or plans to support such a thing?
Thanks,
--ee

Thanks to all for the replies.
In response to the first reply, when importing the shapefile I select the default styling which I think is generally a red color for the content. Nothing out of the ordinary there.
For the themes, I actually tried it both ways. First just importing without the theme creation and doing it manually. I also tried it using the flow generated by the utility and still no luck.
The map renders beautifully in the MapBuilder tool. I can preview it and move around although the zoom in and out does cause some of the layers to drop. So everything is perfect until I try and view it in an AJAX enabled page.
I thought that the scaling factor may be a source of the problem but my question is how do you know what to use for the minx and maxx parameters? The SRID that I used was the WGS84 which is something like 4326. This is actually selectable when doing the import with the MapBuilder tool.
So is there a rule of thumb for chosing the minx and maxx parameters? Also, do you set the minx and maxx in the MapBuilder or are these properties for the mapviewer page?

Error in Running map from Jdeveloper Weblogic -MAPVIEWER-05523--06036

Hi,
I have deployed Mapviewer.ear on an integrated weblogic server and loaded mvdemo sample dataset into my db, and made required changes in map_data_source in mapViewerConfig.xml.
Now, I am able to run all the demo apps and tutorial. However, when I run the map code(basic map) in a jspx from Jdeveloper, I am getting the below error in a pop-up in the browser.
"[MVGlobalVariables.getMapCacheConfig]*MAPVIEWER-05523*:Cannot process response from MapViewer server.(MVDEMO.DEMO_MAP:MAPVIEWER-06036: MapTileServer is not read. Please try again later.)"
In the log, error is "<CacheInstanceConfig> <loadCacheStorageDef> Invalid cache root directory:/scrtach/mvdemomaps\. Cache root directory will be set to default root directory."
I am using Jdeveloper version 11.1.1.4.
What could be the issue, esp when demos are running successfully on the same server.

Ok, so the error comes cause the application is trying to get the tile layer from the server while the Mapviewer server is not ready.
So make sure you run your application once mapviewer server is up and running.
Now, for the problem that you get a blank page it is propably a javascript error as mapviewer gives no errors.
I have made a mistake in the previous post in the HTML section of my code. Give it a try now.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
<title>testMap1</title>
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript" src="/mapviewer/fsmc/jslib/oraclemaps.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var basemap1 = new MVMapTileLayer("mvdemo.demo_map");
function showMap()
//maybe formating is taking away the plus symbols. just make sure the base url is formatted correctly
var baseURL = "http://" + document.location.host + "/mapviewer";
var mapCenterLon = -122.45;
var mapCenterLat = 37.6706;
var mpoint = MVSdoGeometry.createPoint(mapCenterLon,mapCenterLat,8307);
var mapZoom = 5;
var mapview = new MVMapView(document.getElementById("map"), baseURL);
mapview.addMapTileLayer(basemap1);
mapview.setCenter(mpoint);
mapview.setZoomLevel(mapZoom);
mapview.addNavigationPanel("EAST");
mapview.display();
</script>
</head>
<body onload="showMap()">
<div id="map"
</div>
</body>
</html>
if you still get a blank page. Try using firefox with firebug and see what errors rise up in firebug. You should be able to find out what goes wrong with javascript.

APEX as frontend for Oracle Maps and Mapviewer data

Just to let you know:
I did some work with Oracle Application Express (APEX) integrating Oracle Maps and Mapviewer functionality
and published it occasionly it in my Oracle Application Express (German) BLOG. : http://htmldb-de.blogspot.com/ -
Guess you will understand from the screens, what all is possible and beyond...
An integration (application) of APEX and Mapquest for Routeplanning done in APEX can be seen (and downloaded) as well.
Feel free to have a look !

Displaying maps in MapViewer at a defined scale

Dear all
Is it possible to display maps in MapViewer 10.2.1 at a defined scale? For example 1:10,000; 1:5,000; 1:2,500 and so on.
If so does the Oracle MapViewer map scale refer to a representative fraction value? If not does anyone here know what the MapViewer map scale does refer to?
I have attempted to calculate the map units for a complete map but as my ground distance is in metres, I converted by display size to metres. Is that okay or does MapViewer requires it to be keep in inches?
Converting to metres I got a value of 7877.8229644371376654841221770792.
If I stayed with inches I get 200.09670329670329670329670329672
Would I be right in thinking that for raster maps whose image dpi is not 72dpi, you use the dpi value of the raster map image and not 72dpi.
Kind regards
Tim

Joao,
Having thought your answer it would work, it didn't. Having read through the MapViewer manual, I can find no reference to scale with regard to centre. There is just size.
Using scale I got an error message which I've posted below. However as soon as I changed it to size I got no error message, although I get a blank screen no matter which number I've used.
The error using scale is:

How to get the real longtitude latitude of a pixel from Mapviewer'spicture

I have application that will show a map returnning from MapViewer, and in my request I have :
1. MapSize:
2. MapHeight:
3. MapWidth:
4. CenterX:
5. CenterY:
when user click on the picture I receive X, Y in coordinate of PictureBox so How to change them to the real longtitue, langtitude.

Example: I have
MapSize=8
width=500
Height=500
Center X= -122.433 (longtitude)
Center Y= 37.7878 (latitude)
When I send a request I will receive a map reprented in my monitor with 500*500 pixel?
I click on a pixel in that picture and i get the X=350, Y=340 (compare with TopLeft pixel of map is (0,0)).
So how can i get the real longtitude, latitude of that pixel.
In document i see 1 inche =72dpi --> so a real height of my map = 500/72=6.94 Inches
And the problem is how i caculate the map scale.

How do I remove BlackBerry Maps from the OS?

I have a Z10 running 10.3 it's a great update and so far love the BB Assistant. There is one big sore point for me and that is your decision to deeply integrate BB Maps with 10.3 and Assistant.
Appologize upfront but I have to ask....Why would you integrate a lagging-edge Mapping App with an otherwise leading-edge OS in 10.3?
So long story short...BB Maps doesn't work for me. (No Walking, Mass No Transit, No Satellite or Street View equivilants.) The bottom line is that enterprise users need more than what BB Maps offers today and for the foresable future. Just supremely frustrated about this situation and feel bad because 10.3 is great.
So the question is How do I remove BB Maps from 10.3 or completely disable it. I just want it gone at this point. Please help....I'm so totally frustrated that you can't easily remove it!
Thank you and please let me know as soon as possible how to accomplish this.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Good news...Just to let you know I did find a way to remove BB Maps.
Even through it's a core app by reverting to a previous version of BB Maps I was able to delete it from the OS. iBest part is there was no impact to the OS and everything else works as normal. Please Please ...if your going to make BB Maps a core app please make sure its a world class app and it works for all Enterprise users. (Not just for drivers)
I can truely say my BB OS 10 experence is much better now without BB Maps. If BB isn't going to invest in Maps then please don't make it a core app and tightly integrated into the OS. I think at this point BB would be better off outsouring BB Maps to one of the leading Map providers such as Nokia, Mapquest, Bing/MS or even dare I say Google Maps. I think the BB community would be much happier with any of the first three.
Thanks

How to remove a font file and its mapping from XML Publisher Administrator

Hello,
I am trying to remove a font file and its mapping from the XML Publisher Administrator. If this is not possible, is there a way to disable it?
The reason why I am asking this is because we just got a new check printer, and I was able to print just fine. However, the MICR font was not coming up properly on the check, so I went ahead and configured the font with the XML Publisher Administrator. Now my check output is coming up blank after running the XML report publisher program. The only change I did was to upload the MICR font and mapped it.
My template and rdf report file are working fine in another environment we have, so I know that's not the problem.
Any help is appreciate it.
Thanks.

This is how you do it
Font
DELETE FROM xdo_lobs
where lob_code like '<Font_name>';
Font Mapping Set
DELETE FROM xdo_font_mapping_sets_TL
WHERE mapping_code like '<MAPPING_CODE>'

Invoking a mapping from another DB in a process flow

Hi experts, have anyone try to invoke/execute an OWB mapping from another database in a process flow? Is it possible to do that?
My process flow (in the Staging db) scenario is to execute several OWB mapping in the Staging db, then the final step is to execute an OWB mapping which is created in the warehouse db.
Is that possible?

Problem by transporting the message mapping from PI 7.0 to PI 7.1

Hi Everyone,
by transporting the message mapping from PI 7.0 to PI 7.1 i have got the following problem.
"Source code has syntax error:
K:\usr\sap\E71\DVEBMGS00\j2ee\cluster\serve......
package udfpool does not exist
import udfpool.*;
i have used a UDF in my message mapping.
This UDF calls for a method of a java class, which is imported as a .jar file with this message mapping.
this message mapping works very well on PI 7.0,
but doesn't work any more on PI 7.1 because of the problem described above.
anyone can help me out of this problem?
thanks!

hi,
but did you import the jar archive to 7.1 first?

Need help with Resource Mapping from Application Deployment to VC:virtualMachine

Hi,
I've built a number of vCO Workflows and hooked them up to Resource Actions in vRA. However, the Workflows I've built all take a VC:VirtualMachine as the input and therefore,they only "hookup" to VMs in the Machines list in the Items tab in vRA. Ideally, I want these actions to hookup to the Application Deployments in vRA since that is what my users are deploying - the VM that the App rides on is somewhat secondary. Plus, it's cumbersome for them to find the VM that corresponds to the App they want to run the action on.
So, I looked into creating a new Resource Mapping, thinking I could map an Application Deployment to a VC:VirtualMachine so that I could create an Action for the Application. I was able to create a mapping from Application Deployment to VC:VM using the Map to VC:VM existing workflow and I could add that to the Actions menu for the Application Deployment but if I try to run it, it fails. I kind of expected this since I think the Map to VC:VM is expecting an input of IaaS VC:VM to map to vCO VC:VM. I think what I need to do is write a Workflow that will take in the Application Deployment "object" and find the VC:VM inside it but I don't know how to find out the structure of an Application Deployment such that I could parse it and get the VM.
Does this make sense? Am I going about this the right way? Thanks for any help,
Tom

How do i map from file name to the device it resides on

hi
i need to find a way to map from a file name to the disk device it resides on( so i can do ioctl to that device ).
i know that stat(2) returns a dev_t value, but i don't know how to translate from that dev_t to the device name( e.g. /dev/dsk/c0d0... )
THANKS
Gabriel

thanks for the reply,
i'm using a similar mechnisem on linux - using getmntent(3) to find the longest prefix of the filename realpath(3).
i was actually looking for a mechnisem similar to the devname(2) syscall on the BSD os. with this call the kernel do all the work for you simply by mapping from dev_t( which the kernel stored in the indoe) to the device name by keeping a simple mapping table.
if this mechinsem doesn't exists i will have to (eventually) duplicate the kernel work(namei) and create my own mapping.

Re-use message mapping from within java mapping?

Hi there,
I have a question regarding java mapping. What I would like to do is to re-use an existing message mapping from within java mapping.
Technicaly, message mapping is perfomed by com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf3.AMappingProgram.execute, right? I would like to call that mapping program for a specifc message mapping from within my java mapping.
Pseudo java code would look like this:
public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out)
throws StreamTransformationException {
com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf3.AMappingProgram.execute(in,out,'SomeMessageMapping');
SomeMessageMapping is a message mapping that is defined in the integration repository.
Is it possible? If so, could you provide me with some details?
Thank you and best regards,
Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,
very interesting idea?
I would activa a dummy message mapping. than I would have a look in the file directory of the java-stack and try to find out the name of the *.class or *.jar file.
On the other hand you could generate a tpz-transport-file an unpack this file, to explore the name of the *.class or *.jar
Unfortunately I do not have access to the file system. So I can't explore the name.
Regards Mario
