That depends on what projection your raster map is in. If your raster map 
is UTM then all you need to do is import it into your location. Is your 
raster map geo-referenced (does it have a projection)? Do you know what 
that projection is? What type of raster map are you trying to import - is 
it an image?

How many map layers do you have? Are they all in the same projection? If 
you only have one layer, or if all of your map layers are in the same 
projection, you can ignore datum and ellipsoid.
