Hi, The usual 'size' in an SLD is pixels for the generated bitmap, while one can select geoserver extension unit of measurements, which relate to 'real' measurements of what is being rendered (e.g. this would be X meters wide in reality).
I wonder if any thought has been given to a unit of measurement definition that is not pixel-based, but specifies the size of rendering as will be seen on the target device? for example, a specific feature would be always 2mm wide on the target device. the reason is that pixel per inch (ppi) metrics are very different for different display devices - even among PC monitors, but if one takes high-res mobile devices into account, the ppi values can be very different based on each device. this would of course require knowledge about the ppi of the target device, which info could be sent by the device as part of the WMS request sent to GeoServer. has this issue been raised before? if so, what was the conclusion at that time? best regards, Akos ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
