Melvin,
The syntax is:
gdaltindex /name_of_tile_index/.shp /location_of_rasters
/So, for your example, the syntax would look something like:
gdaltindex sample_index.shp c:\ms4w\data\raster\*.tif
Regards,
Christy

Ok from the example: " gdaltindex doq_index.shp doq/*.tif " how do i
include the different tif files?
for example there are 3 .tif : 1. sample_1.tif
2. sample_2.tif
3. sample_3.tif
location: c:\ms4w\data\raster\
how will the syntax look like when i create an index name sample_index?

Hi
Melvin,
Using a tool such as gdaltindex (see http://www.gdal.org/gdaltindex.html and
http://mapserver.org/optimization/tileindex.html#tileindex) you can create a
shapefile tile index that will give MapServer the information it needs to
use
the required rasters for the current map extent. In the shapefile there
will be
one feature that is the bounding box of each raster file, and an attribute
that
contains the path to the raster that each feature represents.

is it possible for mapserver to load 50 .TIF files all together as a
basemap?
because from the tutorial i read, the samples only load 1 raster file..so,
i'm wondering if it's possible to load all the 50 TIF files to the same
.MAP

because
when i load them all together in ArcMap it forms a whole map.
