[Mapserver-users] .map metadata....help me!

[Antti.Roppola at brs.gov.au]

Hi Oliver,

I would start with the demostration project. Get it running first,
then look at substituting your own data, initially with just one
sile layer, and building up as you get confident.

The Mapserver demo/tutorial project can be found here:
  http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc40/getstarted-howto.html

While the map file reference will let you look up what the
fields mean:
  http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc40/mapfile-reference.html

Or you could try this tutorial:
  http://terrasip.gis.umn.edu/projects/tutorial/

Cheers,

Antti

I have recently started using Mapserver and have fallen at the first hurdle!

Where can i find the information required for the .MAP file for my data... 
such as
                IMAGETYPE
	EXTENT
	SIZE
	SHAPEPATH
	IMAGECOLOUR

	PROJECTION

Many thanks in advance for any help/advice that you can provide.

Cheers
Olly Ishmael
