Hello list,
I am using mapserver 4.6 for windows
I am using the following DWidth request
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?VERSION=1.0.0&SERVICE=WFS&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=cities&MAP=../MAPS/tutorial/europe_1.map&Filter=
<Filter>
<DWithin>
<PropertyName>Geometry</PropertyName>
<gml:Point>
<gml:coordinates>-8.418000,41.539600</gml:coordinates>
</gml:Point>
<Distance units='m'>1000</Distance>
</DWithin>
</Filter>
and I am having some problems with the units.
I specified units='m' but, in the results that I obtain, the distance
between the geographical features is in degrees (I checked with ArcMap).
Can you help me to solve this problem?
Thanks.
Best regards.
Miguel
