Folks,<br><br>For those who interested, I've now added the initial revision of the OGR MS SQL Spatial driver to the GDAL repository. For further information please refer to the <a href="http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_mssqlspatial.html">driver information page</a>.<br>
Working binaries (which always contain all the recent fixes) can be downloaded from the daily build system available at: <a href="http://vbkto.dyndns.org/sdk/">http://vbkto.dyndns.org/sdk/</a><br><br>Since I didn't have the chance to test with all kind of the fancy spatial data types any feedback on the potential issues are graciously accepted.<br>
<br>Upon the experiences gathered when writing this driver, I'm also planning to add support for accessing the native SqlGeometry/SqlGeography serialization format in the MapServer sql2008 driver which appears to provide a significant increment in the performance of the data retrieval.<br>
<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>Tamas<br>
