[Geomoose-users] Search Results zoom to, highlight etc not functioning

[Len Kne]

HI Sean

Glad to hear it is working.  Only some of the GeoMOOSE services handle the differences in projection properly, it would be a good feature enhancement to make them all work with different projections.  Re-projecting your data to 900913 for the Google layers will be the easiest solution and you will get some performance improvement as MapServer will not have to re-project all your layers on the fly.

Len,


The problem is the projection difference.  I re-projected my taxlots into 900913 and all services work correctly.  That leads me to another question though.  Is it possible to use the services when the data is in a different projection than the map?  Or is it just much easier to re-project all my data into 900913?  I really would like to use the Google projection and keep my data in its native projection, but not if it is terribly difficult to make it work or services breakdown.

Thanks for all your help

Sean

Hi Sean

I suspect the difference in the projection between the data and the map may be the issue.  If you look at the response in Firebug, I'm would expect the coordinates are going to be in 2913, which are not going to match up anywhere on the map.  For example with the zoom-to service, if the coordinates are outside the max extent of the map, it will zoom to the center point of the map.

A quick check would be to re-project the taxlots to 900913 and see if the services work properly.

The input "ID" you are referring to would be where it says "<input type="hidden" name="id"
value="ACCOUNT_ID" />" for a service?  The "ACCOUNT_ID" in that line is the attribute name in my taxlot shapefile.  As far as the projection question my data is in epsg:2913 but my map is in epsg:900913 to utilize the google layers.

Thanks,

Sean
