Can GeoMoose read and display SDE datasets...

If so how do you write the .map file?

Any thoughts / Examples of a .map file?

Thanks

Hey Jay,

This is more of a MapServer question.  But, I can say that is depends a
little on how you have SDE configured:
1) Configure SDE + ArcGIS Server to serve WMS - Then you access the
layers in GeoMOOSE just as you would any other WMS service.  This is
kinda handy because you can style the layer with the ESRI tools and use
SDE, but you get to side-step the headaches of using ArcIMS (and it's
replacements).

2) Store the SDE database in Oracle.  I'm not sure if MG is an Oracle
shop, but you can use SDE to store data in the Oracle SDO_GEOMETRY
format, which map server can also read.

3) Follow these directions:
http://www.maptools.org/ms4w/index.phtml?page=README_INSTALL.html#sde I
have no direct experience with following them so your mileage may vary a
bit.

I have been successful labeling street centerlines using the ANGLE
FOLLOW in the .map File

This is being performed on a Shapefile Line feature

I also have a Polygon Feature that has a field that I am trying to
label....once again I need the text to follow the polygon 

As you can see from the image the road names a following properly, but
the labels for the polygons are not following...

I tried the ANGLE FOLLOW on the Polygon and It will not draw..

Is there some other syntax that I have to put in the map file that will
force the text to follow the Polygon?

THANKS
