A good point was made here. My use of union_geos wasn't doing what I thought it was. I've decided to manually calculate the boundary of my initial query result (just looking for min{x|y}, max{x|y}) and trying to find the points in that bounding box and still have had no luck.
I've checked http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/vector-formats.html that the points I expect really are supposed to be returned. My bounding box is POLYGON ((-63.60658536 44.61749653, -63.60658536 44.6555663, - 63.55962575 44.6555663, -63.55962575 44.61749653, -63.60658536 44.61749653)) The points that should be returned by the query are POINT (-63.5735359191895 44.6371459960938) POINT (-63.5701866149902 44.6374168395996) I'm using MapServer 5 on windows server 2003. The point layer is OGR with the FID set. I'm attempting to use the same function with other layers and I'm not having any better luck. I must be using this wrong. $taBounds = ms_newRectObj(); $taBounds->setextent($taBoundMinX, $taBoundMinY, $taBoundMaxX, $taBoundMaxY); @$bannerLayer->queryByRect($taBounds); $numRes = $bannerLayer ->getNumResults(); If($numRes > 0){ . . . } Your help is appreciated, Josh -----Original Message----- From: Guillaume Sueur [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2008 11:45 AM To: Josh Hevenor; MAPSERVER-USERS@LISTS.UMN.EDU Subject: Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] queryByShape Problem Oups ! read the stuff too fast. The query object IS a polygon. In fact your point does'nt seem to be INTO the polygon.
