[Geomoose-users] Identify Tolerance

[Clinton Olsen]

When I try to identify a line or a point I get coordinates on the left side
of the template.  Is there a way to troubleshoot the identify tool?  I know
I might not have the tolerance set right but how can I figure out what the
tolerance should be.  I have tolerance numbers I have used range from 0 -
100.  I have tried meters, feet, pixels.  I referenced the how to setup
identify on the geomoose.org site and I got one of my polygon layers to
work.  My template and mapfile are listed below.  How can I troubleshoot
what is wrong with these files?

<tr><td>Boulder Area: [SECTION]</td></tr>

<tr><td>Boulder: [BOULDER]</td></tr>

<tr><td>LAT: [LAT]</td></tr>

<tr><td>LONG: [LONG]</td></tr>
