[Mapserver-users] MySQL and Mapserver

[Julien, Heryk]

Hi,
I am also very interseted in that fonction. I would like to be able to map
well positions from a database x and y colums. Would this permit me to have
an up to date point geometry layer which reflects the changes in my well
database? Can you send me more details?

Thanks

Bart,

if you are interested in point geometries only, there is a new format in 
OGR to set up a virtual layer that can draw columns from any ODBC data 
source and map two of the columns to x and y locations.  We've used it 
for a couple of clients and it works very nicely.  If you are interested 
I can send you more details.

Cheers,

Paul
