results but probably you would need to adjust the distance according to the map scale. BBOX might be faster but then you must make a rectangle around the clicked point.</span></font></div>

Hi,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Currently we have a lot of big datasets with points (think 50k points for instance) that we can now cluster service side with mapserver (cool).</div>
<div>That works like a charm, but now we would like to fetch information if you click on them. (be it a clustered icon, or a non clustered).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The client we are using is google maps with custom javascript code.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As far as I'm aware, I need to perform a WFS request for this. I haven't got any problems setting that up, but what should be passed as a filter?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Can we just pass a point as a filter in the request, or are we forced to supply a bounding box. I'm wondering if there are common solutions to tackle a similar problem.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks in advance.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best regards.</div>
