[mapserver-users] Combined spatial and attribute query

[Lime, Steve D (MNIT)]

Is your spatial query just a bbox? If so then just set that as your map extent as part of doing your attribute query (attributes always do both). There are other options too, let us know more what your spatial query is.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Combined spatial and attribute query

Does anyone have advice on the best or most efficient way to query data, involving both a spatial and an attribute query.  I need to query several layers, selecting based on an area, then select from that selection based on an attribute value.  It would be OK to query by the attribute first, then spatial.
