[mapserver-users] Re: Query Regrading Map Server

[Kunal Malik]

Hi Brent!!
U have Written that it does not allow the layer & its objects.
if we were having the requirement of editing the layer.is that not
possible.Moreover i want to know that does MapServer + openGl works for the
following .

1.Import & Export Maps
2.Create,Delete & Edit Layers
3.ReProjection of Data.
4.Conversion of Map from one datum & projection to Datum wgs84 & Proejction
LCC.
5.Raster to Vector conversion & vice versa
6. Set Transparency.
7. Layer priority,

Please Suggest the requirement could be fulfliied by Mapserver and all the
data would be displayed on OpenGL.
could grass be helpful in this regard??
Thanks
