pretty sure that this has been pointed out before. MapServer does not use
the ESRI .prj files. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=285152520-17072006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>You
simply need to define projection blocks in your mapfile for both your output
projection and for the input projection of each data layer. To do this of
course, you will need to know what projection your data is in.

projection questions<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>Hi,<BR><BR> Can you put a
projection file in a map. Then put regular shp files the layers? How can
you do that? I am using mapserver 4 on a lunix machine. I put a
projection file in my map file but I only have one of them. The rest are
regular shp files. I cant seem to get the layers show up with my projection
file.<BR>Thanks,<BR>Albert<BR><BR>#This is Richland County Map Server<BR>NAME
