Add ability to have legend for tiled layer (tileset) #229

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Currently if a layer is added which is type="tiled_overlay" in the folderset, 
no legend is able to be drawn.  Users currently rely on the metadata to see any 
information about the tileset. However, for a simple layer it would be good to 
have a legend.  Can we add an optional hardcoded value legend parameter such as 
legend="http://maps.massgis.state.ma.us/images/moris_noaa_slr_0ft.gif" to the 
folderset to specify a legend image for a layer?  

We have one case where the vector data was very dense (many polygons and many 
vertices) (Sea Level Rise) and did not need to be queried, so creating tilesets 
made the drawing very fast, but as a result we lose the legend.
