Configuration Files

I picture a configuration file to be very similar to the MapServer map file - with pointers to the input layers but to also have layout and more complex styling. How much of this can be done using existing standards like Web Map Context, SLD and GML. I assume this does not address layout needs? -- Tyler

AutoREALM

There is a open-source application called AutoREALM that is for making maps & cartographic output.

It is written in Delphi, but is fairly stable. --nick

Preliminary steps

Projects can start now by moving towards SVG symbols internally. -- Hamish
