Question


Hello Group.

Is there a known and available resource that explains the specifics for
applying US State Plane projections to the MapServer .map file?

I have consulted the proj 4 documentation as well as any examples I can
find on the web and have not had too much luck.  Any help, examples or
insight is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
