[Geomoose-users] Identify Service Issue

[Brian Fischer]

Two things to try.  My guess is the latter is the real issue.


1)      Add a TOLERANCE 0 to the layer definition in the mapfile since it is a polygon layer.

2)      Your layer name in the mapbook doesn't match your layer name in the mapfile.


See changes below.

Subject: [Geomoose-users] Identify Service Issue

I have been scouring past emails from the list and can't seem to find a solution to my issue.  I have added my own parcel layer and have been succesful in having the identify tool work exactly how I want it.  However, if I add another layer and want to identify that layer, all that is returned is the ground coordinates of the click.  Below is the pertinient information.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
