[mapserver-users] Remote map server - data tweaking

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

Check this TinyOWS example http://mapserver.org/trunk/tinyows/openlayershowtotransactional.html

However, from what I know Qgis does not load all the features but only those which intersect the map window. "Open attribute table" seems to read the attributes from the whole table but for editing attributes of a single feature you can point it with the info tool and then open the "Edit feature form" with right click.

QGis is also a WFS-T client and it can be used for editing data through TinyOWS. The current QGis development version seems to miss the bounding box filter option so it is now downloading the whole table through WSF. Therefore it is unusable with big WFS layers at the moment. Let's hope they will re-activate the BBOX check box soon.

Aihe: [mapserver-users] Remote map server - data tweaking

Hi All

I am looking for a simple editing tool that will allow me to edit vector map data on my remote mapserver DB (postgres)
Ideally something like Potlatch 2 (From ww.osm.org<http://ww.osm.org>)

I want to be able to download a small area of data, move a few notes on a line a bit (or delete it the line), and commit those changes to the DB.
I have used quantum GIS - It is good, but it seems to download all the data from the table, not just what is in view.

Not really a mapserver question, but somewhat related.

Any ideas welcome - thanks

Matt  :)
