[ka-Map-users] selection sets

[Fox, Alistair D (SKM)]

Thanks Sam,
 
I would assume if you can do a query on point data then line and polygon
data would be the same. Just a few techy questions. I gather to be able
to do this the source data would need to be served out from a mapserver
instance. Are there any examples of this out on the web. I'm yet to see
any. On a scale of 1-10 how difficult would it be to develop what my
client is after. Eg: draw rectangle and select spatial objects (point/
line / poly) and then return attributes of selection for further
manipulation.
 
Alistair

Hi there Alistair!

Yes!  ka-map is the answer to all your problems!  :p  You can definitely
do a query on point data with a rectangle bounding box.  I couldn't help
you too much with the details of it as I work mainly with raster data at
this point, but there are plenty of us around here who would be happy to
help you get kamap set up and running! 

Sam

	Hi. I'm a newbie to Ka-map and are looking to confirm potential
functionality for a client. From what i have seen so far this is an
execellent project. 
	 
	One of the requirements my client has is the ability to do the
normal GIS function of dragging a rectangle over the map and be able to
select the features that are within that area. Then the ability to
working with this selection set. e.g: display attributes about the
features.
	 
	What i need to know is can you do this at the moment, (i havn't
seen any examples) and if not is it possible with some customisation. 
	 
	Hope someone out there can help.
