[mapserver-users] mapscript: read GeoJSON

2011-07-13 Thread Frank Broniewski

Hi,

what would be the best way to read a geojson feature/featurecollection 
with mapscript?


My goal is to query a map by a feature which comes as geojson. Of course 
it's not too hard to parse the geojson into a mapserver geometry object 
(pointObj, lineObj, ...). But if there's already a best practice (with 
the aid of other libraries, like ogr, shapely maybe?), I'd be happy to 
apply this one.


Many thanks

Frank

OGR would be the most straightforward I'd think. You could write the GeoJSON
to a file and then craft a layer to access it directly...
