scalebar¶

Not

MapServer supports only cartesian distances (straight-line distance measured on a flat surface), it does not convert distances into an ellipsoidal distance (measured on a spherical shape).

Purpose¶

Creates a scalebar image from a mapfile. Output format of the image (such as PNG, JPEG, etc.) depends on your defined IMAGETYPE in your mapfile.

Syntax¶

scalebar [mapfile] [output image]
