Hi all,

I'm working on an algorithm that will test whether a point falls into
various polygons defined by ~30 different shape files with various
projections. I've started digging into GeoServer, which seems to have no
problems loading the majority of the shapefiles. In your experience is
GeoServer a good fit for this kind of query? Also, what is your favorite
query mechanism (something that supports reprojection would be nice since
I'm pulling a lat/long off of a google map and testing it against several
different projections)

Andrew,

GeoServer, MapServer, and PostGIS are all pretty heavyweight. Would OGR work for your needs?

  http://www.gdal.org/ogr/

It's got pretty nice Python bindings and comes with many Linux distros.

Good luck,

Reid
