[Geoserver-users] (WCS) ImageMosaic plugin update

Hi:

I finally got the ImageMosaic plugin to work, mwahahahaaaaa....

It turns out that the "java.lang.NullPointerException" reported in a
previous post is due to a missing .properties file, which I guess is
mandatory. For now I tried to update the values in it by hand, but I
am not certain about the efectiveness of this approach. For example,
what is the Levels property in there? I would gladly accept any
explanations about the role of the .properties files.

Other than that the plugin seems to be functioning fine. Attached is a
preliminary result of my attempts, so excuse the misaligned data, at
least is showing something....

You can do the same thing with gdaltindex, if you already have gdal installed.

For example, the following command line will create an index shapefile
for all of your geotiffs:

gdaltindex -tileindex location test *.tif

Here it creates a test.shp with a field named "location" (the exact
name is needed by the Imagemosaic plugin I believe), for all images
with .tif extension in the current directory.

There's a caveat: if the shapefile already exists, it will append
polygons to it. So if you don't want to duplicate tiles, list only the
*.tif files that are missing an entry in the shapefile.

Anyway, I found it to be an easy way to create the indexes. Easy is good.

Well i guess we'll just have to wait for the mosaic making program to make
this work perfectly.

Hey!

I'm havin problems with ImageMosaic. When i tried to create a Coverage from
Image Mosaic covarage store i was getting java.lang.NullPointerException.
This was done using the new style .properities file. But when i changed
.properities file back to the old style i coluld create mosaic covera with
no errors. i'm using latest 1.4.x wcs geoserver.

Ciao blaz,
I am packing a new version of the mosaic builder right now.

I am going to send it shortly.

Hey!

I'm havin problems with ImageMosaic. When i tried to create a Coverage from
Image Mosaic covarage store i was getting java.lang.NullPointerException.
This was done using the new style .properities file. But when i changed
.properities file back to the old style i coluld create mosaic covera with
no errors. i'm using latest 1.4.x wcs geoserver.

Hi:

I am sure we can help you to get it going, its tricky but once you
manage to configure the coverage, it works.

1. Did you try configuring the generated .shp file as a FeatureType?
2. Did it show a map?
3. Does it line up with other layers in the same projection?

If yes to all, then its a matter of:

1. Having a .wld and a .prj file for each tile (for some reason,on
first try, the program used to generate the index shapefile choked on
my Geotiff files--gdaltindex worked).
2. Configuring the CoverageStore with the ImageMosaic plugin.
3. Having an accurate .properties and a info.xml file for the coverage
created from the above-mentioned CoverageStore. This was holding me up
for a good while.

Hey!

I'm havin problems with ImageMosaic. When i tried to create a Coverage

Image Mosaic covarage store i was getting java.lang.NullPointerException.
This was done using the new style .properities file. But when i changed
.properities file back to the old style i coluld create mosaic covera
with
no errors. i'm using latest 1.4.x wcs geoserver.

Everything works OK is i use the old style .properties file.

Hi:

I am sure we can help you to get it going, its tricky but once you
manage to configure the coverage, it works.

1. Did you try configuring the generated .shp file as a FeatureType?
2. Did it show a map?
3. Does it line up with other layers in the same projection?

If yes to all, then its a matter of:

1. Having a .wld and a .prj file for each tile (for some reason,on
first try, the program used to generate the index shapefile choked on
my Geotiff files--gdaltindex worked).
2. Configuring the CoverageStore with the ImageMosaic plugin.
3. Having an accurate .properties and a info.xml file for the coverage
created from the above-mentioned CoverageStore. This was holding me up
for a good while.

Hey!

I'm havin problems with ImageMosaic. When i tried to create a Coverage
from
Image Mosaic covarage store i was getting java.lang.NullPointerException.
This was done using the new style .properities file. But when i changed
.properities file back to the old style i coluld create mosaic covera
with
no errors. i'm using latest 1.4.x wcs geoserver.

Yeah from what I can tell the new version of Simone's indexing tool
creates the old style .properties file.

Since you got it working, you have to show us a map--make a nice one :slight_smile:
At least attach a static image or something...
