I'm looking for a way for a user to upload a esri .shp file in order
to specify an area of interest (aoi) and return how many "tiles" or
blocks cover the polygon.  if you have code or can help make this
happen, I can make it worth your while.

specifically:
2.      need ability for user to upload .shp file (to accomplish same)
3.      need ability to export out esri .shp file of drawn or uploaded
polygon.

Tiles counts are against three regular grids with same origin,
covering state of VA.
I have .shp and .kml files representing grid.  Three grid scales are:
10k x 10k
blocks, 5k x 5k blocks and 2500ft x 2500ft blocks (takes over 750K
blocks to cover state).

links:
current application here:  http://www.VBMPselect.com/map.php
test .shp files that a user might upload:

grid description here: http://www.vbmpselect.com/vgin_grid.pdf (page
12)
grid kml here: http://www.vbmpselect.com/grids_kml.zip
grid .shps here: http://www.vbmpselect.com/state_shp.zip

basically trying to identify blocks of data that cover an area such as

overview of project:

The goal of the application is to allow a user to select “tiles” of
geospatial data in order to generate a product/price order
document.    To compute pricing, I need the ability to upload a .shp
on a google map in order to determine # of tiles that cover a given
area at various scales (then those tiles are priced according to a
price list, and summed in the pdf)  I have everything
working except for way to draw poly/get count and upload/export .shp
files.

-again.
responding to this problem with actionable solutions comes with
perks.
thanks!
