Hi All<br><br>I've got a requirement to be able to 'select' multiple features and then perform a query against them to find features from other layers that intersect. The goal is for an interactive tool to select polygons which will be highlighted on every map redraw (using itemnquery) and when the user chooses to have a feature query (itemfeaturequery) against them all.<br>
<br>Our issue is that our selectable layer could have in excess of 1.5 million features and the speed for each map refresh / feature qwould be too long. We're testing agaisnt MapInfo TAB but can have the layer in Shape or PostGIS.<br>
<br>Questions therefore are:<br>Can we have an attribute index built against the field for the layer somehow that MapServer can read and therefore become ALOT faster?<br><br><br><br>
