I am trying to project NAD27 data to NAD83. I have downloaded the PROJ
files with NAD27/83 datum shift included and followed the directions as
detailed on the MapServer Wiki ProjHowTo (http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-
bin/wiki.pl?WindowProjHowTo). But, the data is not reprojecting. I have
created a test map file and data sets (see bellow) to try to isolate the
issue...but to no avail. When I set the Map projection to NAD27(4267) the
NAD83 does not show up at all...and vice-versa.
Am I doing something wrong? Is their another test I can run?
thanks, chris
