I am having a hard time putting labels on both ends of a line Here is SLD that I have so far. It puts a label on one side only but I need it on both ends of a line.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <StyledLayerDescriptor version="1.0.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd" xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <NamedLayer> <Name>line_name_ends_red</Name> <UserStyle> <Title>line_name_ends_red</Title> <FeatureTypeStyle> <Rule> <Name>line_name_ends_red</Name> <LineSymbolizer> <Stroke> <CssParameter name="stroke">#ff0000</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="stroke-width">2</CssParameter> </Stroke> </LineSymbolizer>
<TextSymbolizer> <Geometry> <ogc:Function name="endPoint"> <ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName> </ogc:Function> </Geometry> <LabelPlacement> <PointPlacement> <Rotation> <ogc:Function name="endAngle"> <ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName> </ogc:Function> </Rotation> </PointPlacement> </LabelPlacement>
<Label>
<ogc:PropertyName>LINE_NAME</ogc:PropertyName>
</Label> </TextSymbolizer> </Rule> </FeatureTypeStyle> </UserStyle> </NamedLayer> </StyledLayerDescriptor>

this is what my SLD produces But I need it to look like this But I need it to look like this

To get two labels you will need two textSymbolizers one for the start point and one for the end point. So it becomes:

<TextSymbolizer>
    <Geometry>
        <ogc:Function name="endPoint">
            <ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName>
        </ogc:Function>
    </Geometry>
    <LabelPlacement>
        <PointPlacement>
            <Rotation>
                <ogc:Function name="endAngle">
                    <ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName>
                </ogc:Function>
            </Rotation>
        </PointPlacement>
    </LabelPlacement>

    <Label>

        <ogc:PropertyName>LINE_NAME</ogc:PropertyName>

    </Label>
</TextSymbolizer>
<TextSymbolizer>
  <Geometry>
    <ogc:Function name="startPoint">
      <ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName>
    </ogc:Function>
  </Geometry>
  <LabelPlacement>
    <PointPlacement>
      <Rotation>
        <ogc:Function name="startAngle">
          <ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName>
        </ogc:Function>
      </Rotation>
    </PointPlacement>
  </LabelPlacement>

  <Label>

    <ogc:PropertyName>LINE_NAME</ogc:PropertyName>

  </Label>
</TextSymbolizer>

  • and I suspect if you take out the rotation your labels will end up the right way

  • Hi and thank for the response. Yes that did place labels on both ends. But I need them to be always placed away of the line (before and after the line) not along the line. I'd upload how it look like now but I done see how.

  • Pointplacement takes an offset parameter which might help
