Hi Brent,

You can try :

Carbontools from CarbonPortal : http://www.thecarbonportal.net/
MapWindow from MapWindowGIS : http://www.mapwindow.org/

I don't know if it's exactly what you want but it costs nothing to take a look.

Objet : [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Is there a good WMS DLL to embed a WMS client in a VB application?

Hi all,

We have a Visual Basic application in which which users manually georeference
by clicking on some control points & assigning lat's/long's to each.

The program then plots GPS positions on this background, & has zoom/pan
controls.

It is used to capture seabed observations in real time while watching a live
video stream from an underwater camera.

It is now running on a LAN with a mapserver WMS, and we'd like to use this as
the map background provider, instead of the local image. This background is
generated from multibeam bathymetry data collected in an immediately prior run
over the survey site.

Can anyone offer some advice as to the best way to embed such a WMS client in
VB?

Ideally I guess a dll with zoom/pan & local point overlay capabilities. 


Thanks,

  Brent Wood
