[mapserver-users] querybypoint

[Steve Lime]

Hi: This is the basic query method in MapServer. It allows you to intersect a point with one or more
layers. In MapScript there are layerObj and mapObj wrappers for it. To make a layer queryable via a
point you need to:

  1) define a presentation template, this could be as simple as TEMPLATE 'foo' if you don't intend to use it
  2) set a layer TOLERANCE value

That should do it.
