Hi, I'm currently generating a query from my software to access a MrSid file that I have on my MapServer; here's the link: http://206.183.188.202/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:\ms4w\Apache\htdocs\SD\mccook-wms.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=NAIP2006&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:4269&BBOX=611300,4815500,613300,4817500&WIDTH=800&HEIGHT=800&FORMAT=image/jpeg <http://206.183.188.202/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:\ms4w\Apache\htdocs\SD\mccook-wms.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=NAIP2006&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:4269&BBOX=611300,4815500,613300,4817500&WIDTH=800&HEIGHT=800&FORMAT=image/jpeg> I'd like to be able to generate a URL that will get me the "gdalinfo" on that file... Here's what doesn't work: http://206.183.188.202/cgi-bin/gdalinfo.exe?c:\ms4w\Apache\htdocs\SD\mccook\mccook2006.sid Could someone point out A.) if I'm barking up the wrong tree completetely, and if not, B.) what does that kind of query/URL need to look like?
Ken, I'm not aware of anyone doing anything quite like this. gdalinfo isn't setup to be used as a cgi, and doesn't return things html encoded or with a content-type header. And MapServer does not have an equivelent functionality. But, in theory, you could write a little gdalinfo script in php/perl/python that would execute gdalinfo on a passed argument filename and then return the result with a proper "Content-type: text/plain" header.
