2009-06-01 Thread Steve Lime
MapServer templates can produce a center point for a geometry but it's not a true centroid but those aren't guaranteed to be "in" the polygon. MapScript could be used as well I suppose. In either case you'd send a lookup request to the CGI or MapScript, do an attribute query and return whatever

Hi, There is nowadays MAXSIZE that is used at MAP level. Set it to 5000 and try again. MAXSIZE [integer] Sets the maximum size of the map image. This will override the default value. For example, setting this to 2048 means that you can have up to 2048 pixels in both dimensions (i.e. max o

Robert, That's not so big. You can compile MapServer with larger output numbers, I think there is even an optional output method that has been recently added (or is going to be added) to help with this type of thing. The limits are in place for good reason BTW, so be careful with what you se
