[Mapserver-users] MS4.0 and Raster (GeoTiff) assistance needed

Phil -

If you can tell us what part of the Earth this raster file represents,
it will help us interpret the proper projection for it.  It is clearly
NOT in degrees, and the 4.0 and -4.0 lines *probably* refer to meters.

I have a map with a number of layers working.  I am trying to include a
raster layer (.tif).  When I include the layer:

  LAYER
    NAME "Test"
    STATUS ON
    DATA "E:/Inetpub/wwwroot/mapserver/raster/4424.tif"
    TYPE RASTER
    TEMPLATE "template_hi.html"
  END

The map shows but the layer does not appear.  I am assuming that it is a
projection problem.  My extent is in degrees:

EXTENT -81.917574 26.569844 -81.755026 26.691756

But the .tfw file appears otherwise:

4.00000000000000
0.00000000000000
0.00000000000000
-4.00000000000000
669000.00000000000000
855000.00000000000000

How do I go about including this layer?  Or, can someone point me to
some
tutorials (I have found one that helps me).

Thanks
