buffering of layers

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi Sudip,

sounds like you are doing a lot of spatial analysis lately, please look
into PostGIS as a database backend for your application.

Mapserver can do some spatial analysis, but certainly not all. So store
your data in PostGIS and let PostGIS do the analysis work would be my 2
cents.

Best regards,
Bart
