[mapserver-users] large shapefile

[Robert Sanson]

Hi Steve
 
For Shapefiles, the only one you need is shptree. It creates a .qix
spatial index file of your features.
 
Usage: shptree yourshapefile.shp
 
The other tools are for rasters.
 
Kind regards,
 
Robert Sanson

Hi, 
I read a lot on how to optimized mapserver for large shapefile but I
get confused. I read on shp2tile, ogrtindex, shptree, ... 
What is the link between those tools? What is the recipe? 
thanks, 
Steve
