[mapserver-users] Photo Viewer

Eric,

Interesting idea.  I remember a thread a few years back about something similar being asked.

As far as the geo-referencing part, you can simply use the size of the image as your reference coordinate system for each image.  Mapserver is more generally suit towards combining different data into a single output, thus the need for a coordinate system to reference more than one layer.

So, the real question boils down to a technique for fooling MapServer into some sort of projection some how for each image.   Let me think on this a bit.  I wonder though about setting up something to register images to a location via a loading form which grabs the image size, etc.  Then they are put away with the sudo projection assigned to each image at the uploading point.

I would like to use MapServer as just an unreferenced image viewer for jpgs so I can zoom in and out on the image.  Everything I read says that images have to be georeferenced.  Any idea or even examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Eric Weisbender
