[Geomoose-users] Identify Tolerance

[Clinton Olsen]

Dean,

I adjusted my map file according to your suggestions and I still am not
retrieving any information from the point layer.  I don't know if this will
help but I have all of my layers reprojected to the web mercator projection
(EPSG:3857).  Is there a way to see if anything is being passed when I try
to identify an object?  Below is my mapfile with the suggested changes.

LAYER
NAME "boulders"
DATA "boulders.shp"
STATUS DEFAULT
TYPE POINT
METADATA
# drill-down identify service record.

            END

END #end label
  END#end class
