It's whatever the UNITS parameters is set to in the mapfile and should match
the output projection system. The CGI version when compiled with proj.4 will do
some automatic recognition of lat/lon coordinates and do the projection for
you, but otherwise extents are always taken as mentioned above.

Hi there,
What is the unit of the 5-digit minx,maxx,miny,maxy for EXTENT command in
the Map Object?
I thought that should be latitude and longitude???

Thanks for your help.
