[Geomoose-users] Help; is there anybody that knows how to use a DFX or KML in Geomoose?

Your map file needs the
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION 'T:\GeoData\Parcels\Alberta\brooks.dxf' # entities'
part instead of your DATA statment. So it should look like:
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION 'cci.dxf' # entities'
instead of
DATA './cci.dxf'
Mapserver does not understand DXF; it needs to use the OGR library to
read it.
What is the coordinate system of your DXF file?
Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
