[mapserver-users] Integrate mapserver with PHP MIS

[Dan Little]

It is certainly possible to do this with mapserver.  More accurately, it is very easy to setup these types of queries with "mapscript" the scripting library provided with mapserver.

There is also some constraints on your data.  You'll need to have a table (or column) describing the geographic locations of all of your projects.  Or have a geocoder that can translate the project into geographic coordinates "on the fly."
