Can anyone offer some advice as to whether it would be feasible to
generate bitmaps images, such as geographic maps with data contours
and political boundaries drawn on top? I have a bunch of scientific
data (satellite derived AVHRR data to be precise) that I will be
importing into a MySQL database and would like to create a web
interface that allows the user to query the database and view the
results as data plotted out on a map. I probably will need to do
other sorts of scientific plotting as well.
Any suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks!
