<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=726580301-19092007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>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.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Hi there Alistair!<BR><BR>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!

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>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. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hope someone out there can help.</FONT></DIV>
