I'm looking for a web mapping package that can be used to show 15 - 20 datasets at once. These data just need to be turned on/off and maybe an identify/query feature. Data are points, lines, polygons, and rasters (aerial imagery, DEMs, etc...) Basically, I'm looking for a way to show these datasets to a few dozen colleagues located in various depts.<br>
<br>So far, MapGuide OS and GeoMoose seem to be the two best options. I have used Mapserver and Postgis before and could use these again. Vectors are mostly shapefiles and rasters are img or ESRI grids (I could convert to png tiles using GDAL or something similar.)<br>
<br><br>Any thoughts on the ease of setup/config of GeoMoose vs MapGuide OS? Any other obvious packages I'm missing? (I know about ka-map but don't think it's being developed, and may not add anything over GeoMoose/MapGuide.) In the past, I've used ArcIMS and ArcGIS Server for such a purpose. However, I'm looking for an open source solution.<br>
<br>If all goes well, we may develop a more sophisticated application in the future but for right now, viewing the data is most important. Thanks for your help.<br><br>- John<br> <br>**************************************************<br>
