[postgis-users] Re: What aplication may i buy to edit postgisdata.

Chris,

  I just tried JUMP and it looks very intriguing.  Over the past couple of
weeks I've been testing various WMS clients with Mapserver, trying to find a
good one that our sales people can use to show our raster data products.
Most have shortcomings when dealing with selecting or setting coordinate
systems.

  I've noticed that JUMP will give the user the opportunity to select the
coordinate system from the list supplied from the WMS server (excellent!),
but there seems to be no way to set the view (task) coordinate system so I
can overlay (and JUMP can project) local lat/lon shapefiles.

We tend to keep our shapefiles unprojected and let ArcView 3.x do the
projecting when necessary.  This relieves us from have the same data in
multiple coordinate system (and now that Mapserver can do 24-bit raster
reprojection and act as a WMS server we may want to do the same for our
raster data).

Any plans in the future for JUMP to project local vector data on the fly?

Thanks!
