CGI MapServer, Dynamic Points

[Fischer, Brian]

Chip,
 
Check out ovf in ogr. http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/vector_data/VirtualSpatialData  That is the way I am displaying points from a MS database.  Works very well.  I think I've posted the layer snippet and .ovf file a while back on the list, if you search the archives you might be able to find it.  If not let me know and I get dig it up.
 
Hope this helps,
Brian

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] CGI MapServer, Dynamic Points



I'm trying to use CGI MapServer (ie NOT MapScript) to dynamically add
points to a map based on X and Y fields in a database (currently MS
Access). Can someone point me in the right direction?

MapServer 4.8.3
Windows, IIS

TIA -
