[mapserver-users] project on the fly through mapserver or openlayers?

[Fawcett, David (MPCA)]

When possible, the best performance comes from preprocessing the data to put it all in the same spatial reference system.  

I don't have any good data for you for your original question.  I would guess that the performance of OpenLayers projection would vary based on the client machine and browser.

Hi to all,
I'm using MapServer and OpenLayers in my Webgis application.
I'm at the first steps, and I was thinking about this...

If I'm not going bad, both OpenLayers and Mapserver have on the fly project
transformation functionality.
With Mapserver you can reproject also raster images, that OpenLayers can't.

If all this is correct, I wondered if, for performance issues, it's better
to reproject vectorial drawings with MapServer or OpenLayers.

thanks to all,
Kiks
