[mapserver-users] OGR/GeoJSON WRITE_BBOX

[Tom]

Interesting - I too am using GDAL 1.9. Can you suggest anything else I can try?  I'm kind of at a loss as to how to narrow this down further.  Thanks for trying it out.

I don't think so. I've just tested adding your outputformat definition in a Mapfile and I get the bbox at FeatureCollection level :

$ mapserv
QUERY_STRING="map=test_geojson.map&SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=popplace&OUTPUTFORMAT=geojson"
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=result.dat
Content-Type: application/json; subtype=geojson

{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"crs": { "type": "name", "properties": { "name": "urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::3978" 
} },
"bbox": [ 2279399.0, -55344.50390625, 2600377.0, 461586.8125 ],                 
"features": [
...snip...
]
}

I've only tested with mapserver master and GDAL trunk, but don't see why it wouldn't work with GDAL >= 1.9.
