#3194 new enhancement

support GetFeatureOfInterest request

Description

I've written up an OpenLayers SOS client, but it depends on the GetFeatureOfInterest request to get the actual vector features of the stations. Mapserver SOS server currently does not support this request.

It would be nice if this request was added, so my OL client could work both against UMN as well as 52North.

FYI this would involve the mapfile having a layer setup to associate with the procedures (i.e. stations). Currently we identify procedures through mapfile metadata (list or item lookup). The geometry of the procedure is thus generated from the underlying geometry of the observation.

We could have a LAYER defined with metadata identifying it as a "procedure" layer, and then have the actual "observation" layers ref it via sos_procedure_layer type metadata to do the association.

The best case scenario would be to setup an observation layer which can optionally have no geometry, and associate it with a procedure layer.

Comments?
