[Mapserver-users] Integrating map server into my own client application - Clean HTT P Get interface

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi,

I think a good option would be to use the OpenGIS WMS (Web Map Server) 
interface of mapserver.

See for more information:

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc40/wms-server-howto.html

Best regards,
Bart
