Hi,
=20
I am working on an app at present and I am wanting to integrate external
GPS data plots and point files into online maps. The data I have as
input is basically lat/long points and descriptions. I am currently
writing out a .map file and adding a long list of FEATURE references on
multi layers. It works fine however I am just wondering if there is a
more correct or better way to be able to do this on the fly. The data is
coming from an SQL database and is not in any shape file formats.
Basically a table with Desc, Lat & Long - this data changes often.

Any thoughts or ideas much appreciated!   =20
