R: [Mapserver-users] europa projection

[Ballini Yvain]

It's probably that you should specify the zone in Europe for the projetcion UTM (spheroid WGS84):
Zone 31 is for Longitudes which are between 0° to 6° east
Zone 32 is for Longitudes which are between 6° to 12° east
Zone 33 is for Longitudes which are between 12° to 18° east...

Have a nice day!

Oggetto: [Mapserver-users] europa projection


Hello,

I downloaded the europa example layer and tried to covert it to other projection formats unsuccessfully. What are the exact properties of this layer? In the mail archives I found "the projection is Transverse Mercator,spheroid WGS84, False Easting and Northing 0, Scale Factor 0.9996(UTM)." However ESRI ArcView GIS 3.3 has this projection utility that askes for more. For example what is the exactly zone of this map? I know it is europa but that is europa's zone?

What are the parameters I should enter into projection utilty to get it to read europa correctly?

have a nsce day
