You should use the following EXTENT in your MAP file then:

MAP
 ..
  EXTENT 567955.024450 2511748.009226 579369.036331 2521531.038812
  ..

Hi,

I tried to read a mapinfo file (.TAB) with mapserver using OGR library, but
my question is how can I retrieve extent information that I have to write in
the mapserver file (.map).
I've ever retrieve information about the mapinfo file with the ogrinfo
command which return me this :

[root at siska demo]# ogrinfo -so essai_zone.TAB essai_zone |more
Had to open data source read-only.
INFO: Open of `essai_zone.TAB'
using driver `MapInfo File' successful.

Layer name: essai_zone
Geometry: Polygon
Feature Count: 8
Extent: (567955.024450, 2511748.009226) - (579369.036331, 2521531.038812)
Layer SRS WKT:
...


How I must fill the map file with this ?


All regards,
Seb
