[Geomoose-users] Soil acreage calculator?

[Brent Fraser]

Mark,

   Use the GeoMoose Feature Editor tools for creating the user-sketched 
polygons.  In versions previous to GM v2.6 the Feature Editor was GM 
Javascript and PHP, so you could modify the PHP to do a PostGIS query to 
get the area values of the intersecting soil polygons (if they are in 
the PostGIS database too).  If PostGIS is not available, you might be 
able to use OGR or GEOS to do the area calculations in PHP (or Python 
for that matter).

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
