This absolutely fixed my problem. Thanks so much, Ben! Jess

If you are using templates, you have access to the Map Geometry information, check out : http://mapserver.org/mapfile/template.html#template I think you can access similar information using OpenLayers. If not, do you specify the IMGEXT of your map in your URL? Could you use this information? cheers Ben On 01/05/2012, at 12:00 AM, "Jessica Clarke" <[email protected]> wrote: I'm trying to find out the geographic coordinates of an output map. Please correct me if there is an easier way, but I have added the GDAL/GTIFF output format to my mapfile, and I am calling it with ...&qformat=GTiff&... in my URL so that it selects that instead of the png output format (which is already in use by a large number of people). What I want to do now, is produce a report that gives the top-left coordinate of the map. Is there a way to extract this information and produce a report? My thought process at the moment: Include another outputformat which is text so my URL would be ...&qformat=GTiff+report&... But I'm not sure how to do that exactly, or how to extract the coordinates. I have run GDAL info in cmd, so I'm aware of the data that is contained. Any advice would be appreciated. I am hoping I'm on the right track at the moment. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This transmission is intended solely for the person or organisation to whom it is addressed.
