<DIV>Jess,</DIV>

<DIV>This might depend a little bit on what interface you are using to display the map. If you are using templates, you have access to the Map Geometry information, check out :</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><A href="http://mapserver.org/mapfile/template.html#template">http://mapserver.org/mapfile/template.html#template</A></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I think you can access similar information using OpenLayers.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If not, do you specify the IMGEXT of your map in your URL? Could you use this information?</DIV>

<DIV>cheers</DIV>

<DIV>Please correct me if there is an easier way, but I have added the GDAL/GTIFF output format to my mapfile, and I am calling it with<SPAN class=Apple-converted-space> </SPAN><EM>...&qformat=GTiff&...</EM><SPAN class=Apple-converted-space> </SPAN>in my URL so that it selects that instead of the png output format (which is already in use by a large number of people).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What I want to do now, is produce a report that gives the top-left coordinate of the map.</DIV>
<DIV>Is there a way to extract this information and produce a report?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My thought process at the moment:</DIV>
<DIV>Include another outputformat which is text so my URL would be<SPAN class=Apple-converted-space> </SPAN><EM>...&qformat=GTiff+report&...</EM></DIV>
<DIV>But I'm not sure how to do that exactly, or how to extract the coordinates.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have run GDAL info in cmd, so I'm aware of the data that is contained.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any advice would be appreciated. I am hoping I'm on the right track at the moment.</DIV></SPAN></SPAN></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR><BR>
