More info,
Using this service call:
https://www.sharedgeo.org/MNGEO-ro/public/ows?SERVICE=wfs&VERSION=1.1.0&REQUEST=getFeature&TYPENAME=layer_3&FILTER=%3CFilter%3E%3CDWithin%3E%3CPropertyName%3EGeometry%3C/PropertyName%3E%3Cgml:Point%3E%3Cgml:coordinates%3E-93.093,44.955%3C/gml:coordinates%3E%3C/gml:Point%3E%3CDistance%20units=%27f%27%3E0.0438%3C/Distance%3E%3C/DWithin%3E%3C/Filter%3E
I tried, FT, FEET, Ft, ft, Feet and f, (this last, the "f" is the only
thing that changed the results, but it only increased the return from
three to six points):
I used the same unit distance of 0.0438, which the majority of time
returns three points. These points in ground units are actually within
~2360ft of each other. I have no idea how the 0.0438 number relates to
that. Is it possibly related to the LAT/LON coordinate system?
This is working enough for me to get through my current stage of
development, I'm just trying to get a handle on how the filter units are
supposed to relate to the map units. Maybe DWithin has a PROJ option or
something??
Thanks

All,
I've got a filter request working with DWITHIN but get seemingly
weird returns.. Using EPSG:4326, and "m" (Does this = Miles??) I get
returns that I expect when using fractional "m" values.
What other unit designations are honored? I don't see anything in
the getCapabilities about units or the MapServer docs.
here are the units and abbreviations that can be used:
- m or meters: can be used to indicate meters
- km or kilometers: kilometers
- NM: nauticalmiles
- mi or miles : miles
- in or inches : inches
- ft or feet : feet
- deg or dd: degree
- px: pixels
ticket was added to add this in the docs
(http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3488)
Lastly, does MapServer support CQL (yet?), I saw references to this
in my searching.
Not that I am aware of.
best regards
