[Mapserver-users] WMS connection for BC Albers -- howto ??

[Stephen Clark]

Shane,

I am not really sure hor to use this file you sent. me.

I was thinking of using this wms server as a layer in my *.map file like
below:


### wms layers from BC Gov.
LAYER
      NAME "wms_bcgov"
      TYPE RASTER
      STATUS ON
      CONNECTIONTYPE WMS
      CONNECTION URL
"http://slkapps2.env.gov.bc.ca/servlet/com.esri.wms.esrimap"
      METADATA
        "wms_srs"             "EPSG:42102"
        "wms_name"            "wms_bgov"
        "wms_server_version"  "1.1.3"
#        "wms_formatlist"      "image/gif,image/png,image/jpeg,image/wbmp"
        "wms_format"          "image/png"
      END
     PROJECTION
       "init=epsg:42102"
     END
END


Is this possible?
