Houston Engineering wrote it for us a while back as part of our "Oregon" webmap project.  I will extract it from the application and post in the wiki in the next day or so.  Also you could go to the Houston/Polk site and see how it works.

Dean,

  I'd be interested in that.  I expect we'll have a need to do some collaboration between two or three users on our mapping site, so that might be a start.  I had also considered having a tab for a "chat" window (which implies a a chat server, etc)...
Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

We have a "bookmark" tool which allows users to save basic settings such as the last selected set, mapextent and which layers are turned off or on.  The bookmark is printed in the results tab and can be used as a book mark, e-mailed, etc. We use this to support different groups or individuals within the county so that their default views are saved and accessible.   This might be modified to fit what you may need.

Carl,

On way is to save it as a session variable in your server-side scripting.  However if your existing site (where they log in) and your new mapping site are on different servers, you'll need to do something else.

Hello all, 

I have my app working in geomoose and am getting the layers working thanks to a lot of help from the list. I have another question for the list, again it may be a dumb one but here goes.

My users will access the app from a site that already exists and will do so once logged in, I can pass across a user id on the url (as part of the query string) or as a form variable. The users will then make whatever changes to the map they need (turning layers on and off) and save those changes, I plan to do this by saving into a database and along with the map layer information I would need to save the user id from the url so I can pair up users with their saved map details later on when they are back in the main site.

Is there a recognised way to do this in geomoose or does anyone have any suggestions.

Best

Carl
