Pav Lucistnik d600782850 Add MapServer, a system for developing web-based GIS applications.
The basic system consists of a CGI program that can be configured to
respond to a variety of spatial requests like making maps, scalebars,
and point, area and feature queries. Virtually all aspects of an
application, from web interface to map appearance can be developed
without any programming. For the more ambitious user, MapServer
applications can be enhanced using Java, JavaScript or many other web
technologies.
