<P>Hi Kresh</P>
<P>Tiff World File (.tfw) </P>
<P>6 rows:<BR>First row is x-pixel resolution (width in your coordinate system)<BR>Second and third rows are so-called "rotational components" but are set to zero in the case of an unrotated mapsheet.<BR>The fourth row is the y-pixel resolution (dimension in coordiantes). The negative sign indicates that the image y-axis is positive down which is the opposite from real world coordinates.<BR>The 5th and 6th rows are the Easting and Northing of the middle of the upper left pixel</P>
<P>Robert</P><BR><BR>>>> "kreshna_iceheart@yahoo.com" <kreshna_iceheart@yahoo.com> 3/11/2008 8:19 p.m. >>><BR>I have a map file with following MapExtent parameter:<BR> EXTENT 106.335006 -6.896956 107.315811 -5.983994<BR><BR>Recently, I got a TIFF file without coordinates. I plan to use the TIFF file with my map. Thus, I'm supposed to create a .TFW file using text editor, am I correct?<BR><BR>Problem is: I'm not sure what parameter to be put in the .TFW file. Here is the parameters I put in my TFW file so far:<BR> 1.000<BR> 0.000<BR> 0.000<BR> -1.000<BR> 106.335006<BR> -5.983994<BR><BR>And I failed to show the raster on my map.<BR><BR>Please note that I am merely guessing. It seems that the fifth and the sixth like of the TFW should be the leftmost and rightmost number of my EXTENT parameter, respectively, but I have no idea what the first four lines are for. <BR><BR>Based on EXTENT parameter above, what the correct .TFW values should be? Many thanks,<BR><BR>-Kresh<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR>_______________________________________________<BR>mapserver-users mailing list<BR>mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org<BR><A href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver</A>-users<BR><BR><br><br><table bgcolor=white style="color:black"><tr><td><br>------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
