[UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Trouble with Projection - LCC

Be sure to put UNITS DD in the map section and UNITS METERS in the layer
section since LCC is in meters...

I'm trying to plot a property parcel shp file, and it keeps plotting in
Pennsylvania instead of North Carolina.   

It also prints out the wrong size.  (much to big ) 

 

I've posted my parcel layer (from the .map file )  and the PRJ file that
came with the shp file. 

What am I doing wrong ? 

 

My map file output projection is :

PROJECTION

  "proj=longlat"

  "ellps=WGS84"  

END

 

Thanks !

 

Jim
