Hi list,<br>
<br>
I have a few MapServer layers based on data that can be edited at
any time. In practice this usually happens in short bursts every
month or so. The remaining time the layers would benefit greatly
from using a tile cache. <br>
<br>
Are there any suggested methods on how to automatically
purge/delete/change the cache when an edit happens when using
MapServer and Mapcache?<br>
<br>
I see that GeoWebCache/Geoserver allows a GeoRSS feed to invalidate
features

The ows_updatesequence metadata parameter for a WMS layer looks like
it could be used somehow (see <a
href="http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#web-object-metadata">http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#web-object-metadata</a>),
but it seems that custom dimensions need to be requested by the
client, and any Mapcache configurations would need Apache to be
restarted. <br>
<br>
Any best practices, or solutions appreciated,<br>
