There are a number of things which need this, but it isn't something that mapnik can do at the moment. > Are there other possilities and what is the best method of addressing this > issue? Enhance mapnik to support this concept - it probably means allowing point symbolizer to specify that an icon should be aligned at a particular angle. The angle could either be computed by the point symbolizer itself by allowing it to refer to a line geometry that gave the angle or it could be precomputed in the SQL somehow.
