[mapserver-users] PROJ support for Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area

[Ed McNierney]

Frank -

Thanks very much for pointing out my boneheaded typo.  That fixed the
problem.  Unfortunately, this was one of those situations where it
seemed pretty obvious that a boneheaded typo was the culprit, but
sometimes the only way to find those is to post your foolishness on the
Web for everyone to see <g>.

I appreciate the quick response - problem solved.

	- Ed

Ed, 

I think you want to use "lat_0=45n".  I am not sure that "lat_1" has any
meaning for LAEA. 

Best regards,
