Thanks, Scott. This was so easy so thanks to the documentation editors
and a red face to me for not finding it. I think for newcomers it seems
difficult to find the right information because it all seems a bit
overwhelming. When I performed the search, which is great to highlight
the searched for term, the Projection or Coodinate
(var MAP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM = '<UTM-zone|MNCOUNTY-COUNTYNAME>'; Sets the
coordinate system used when calculating geographic coordinates
(Lat/Long) displayed in the footer. Currently, only two coordinate
systems are supported. The demo default is UTM zone 15. NOTE: This does
not pertain to the projection of your map layers.)
didn't highlight for me so I must have missed it.

Hi Jim,
In the configuration.js, you need to set MAP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM =
MNCOUNTY-DOUGLAS. That should support what you need... " to display the
lat-lon coordinates in the status bar and for passing lat-lon
information into a service."
Excerpt from the configuration.js reference guide:
var MAP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM = '<UTM-zone|MNCOUNTY-COUNTYNAME>';
Sets the coordinate system used when calculating geographic
coordinates (Lat/Long) displayed in the footer. Currently, only two
coordinate systems are supported. The demo default is UTM zone 15. NOTE:
This does not pertain to the projection of your map layers.
* UTM Specify as UTM-<zone>, for example UTM-15.
* Minnesota County Coordinates Specify as MNCOUNTY-<county
name>, for example MNCOUNTY-RAMSEY.

<http://www.geomoose.org:88/moose/documentation/how-tos/how-to-add-your-

interface to use County Projected data. I see the MN county projections
are in the lib js file and the projection/MNcounty js file. So that
must leave the configuration js file where there is just one reference
to UTM-15. Is this something that is quick to do?
