[mapserver-users] Migration to MapServer

[yUser]

Hello,

Am new to MapServer. What I am trying to achieve is the following:

I have a Google Maps web application which shows bicycle routes. Users can
then search from those bicycle routes (javascript). As I am learning more
about MapServer I am also wondering if migrating from using Google Maps to
MapServer will work for this particular application.

1. Any ideas about finding City of Toronto Routes and Street data? (I found
some data but I am wondering if they will have a similar look and feel like
the Google Maps - maybe not too cool but should be good enough to see
streets and roads rather than just line segements).
2. Other than that I will have to allow users some capability to draw
polylines on the map. Does the MapServer scripting allow drawing of
polylines?
3. If there are points on a map and if a bounding box rectangle is drawn on
the map, can the MapServer script allow finding which points are within the
bounding box (with lat/lng cooordinates)?

Hoping to get all of this done within 1 week or so..I hope this is a
reasonable time estimate for this migration.

If you have ideas about this, please let me know?
Thanks.
