[mapserver-users] Rendering of Symbols outside map window

[Jörg Thomsen (WhereGroup)]

Hello Patrick,

I think mapserver alone can't do it.
some ideas:
- use a cache like mapproxy, which requests big maps
- use a client that creates a buffer around the shown map (like
http://dev.openlayers.org/examples/buffer.html)
- create a server-sided script, that receives your getmap-request,
extends the bbox and mapsize, then sends a request to mappserver, cuts
of the before added border of the image and delivers the result to the
client.
