[mapserver-users] Accessing images from remote servers

[Venkat Shesu Reddem]

Dear Ian,

Along with this can it be possible to access imagery using MapServer from
database such as MySQL where images like GeoTiFF can be stored as BLOB
object.

This can allow to mapserver running on multiple devices to access imagery
from different database servers.

with regards
Venkat
