Could you point me in the right direction for the solutions you proposed? I like the idea of do calculations client-side with javascript, however, I didn't figure out how to fetch the value withina <script> tag in the template.

Hello Patrice,

I would prefer to save the data in a database using a view to create the
additional field (I haven't tried, but I think even spatialite is
possible as mapserver-deatasource?)

Another way would be to use scripting
- calculate the value with javascript within the template-html or
- use server-side processing within the template

Hello,

Is it possible to do numeric calculations with the result of a
GetFeatureInfo? Some layers have an area field in square meters but I
want to display it to the user in acres or hectares. It would be nice
not having to create a second attribute column in my source layer just
for that.

I am using an html template at layer level to output the results of the
query.
Mapserver 7.0.4

Thank you,


Patrice
