[Geomoose-users] Identify Tolerance

[Anderson, Dean]

Here is what I use to identify roads and the tolerances seems to work fine.
 (TOLERANCE 100
  TOLERANCEUNITS FEET)  as follows:

Layer  #14
  Name "Roads"
  Data './data/RoadAllWeb'
  Status On
  Type Line
  METADATA
  'identify_record' 'templates/identify_road.html'
  END
  TOLERANCE 100
