Creating a designated graphics file

[Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)]

Do you need this functionality to be available from the web? Then as Tom 
said you'll probably need Mapscript.

If you don't need it from the web, you could use shp2img and use > to 
output it to a file. Ofcourse you can write your files to a 
web-accessible directory.

shp2img -m mymap.map > c:\temp\out.png

Best regards,
Bart
