[Mapserver-users] Can't seem to get the projection correct

[Ed McNierney]

Daniel -

Unfortunately <g>, the map looks just fine.  What were you expecting?
Do you have a sample of what a "geographic" projection of that area does
look like?  Canada's going to get stretched quite a bit that way.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] Can't seem to get the projection correct

I've been playing with my projections for some time now, with no
success.
I'm using entirely OGR data (MapInfo data to be exact).  All the data is
in
latlong.  No matter what I try, I end up with maps that are vertically
challenged (squished).  See the attachment.

I'd appreciate any advice you can offer.

Thanks,
Daniel Martin
