Overview
MS4W is the quick and easy installer for setting up MapServer For Windows and its accompanying applications (e.g. GeoMoose, Mapbender, OpenLayers, etc.).
This image provides both novice and advanced MapServer users to quickly install a MapServer development environment on their Windows systems.
In its most basic form, MapServer is a CGI program that sits inactive on your Web server. When a request is sent to MapServer, it uses information passed in the request URL and the Mapfile to create an image of the requested map. The request may also return images for legends, scale bars, reference maps, and values passed as CGI variables.
