HI,

I'm new in the mapserver world.

I created my own map, in Windows, that it runs perfectly. Now I need to
insert several symbols over the map in the exact place given by a database
that contains gps coordinates.

Someone could explain how can I do it? How can I obtain the exact point in
the map?

My current .map is:

MAP
  IMAGETYPE      PNG
  EXTENT   0.000000 -205.000000 300.000000 0.000000
  SIZE           600 410
  SHAPEPATH      "data"
  IMAGECOLOR     255 180 0
  FONTSET "fonts/fonts.list"

  #PROJECTION
   # "proj=laea"
   # "ellps=clrk66"
   # "lat_0=45"
   # "lon_0=-100"
    #
    # Alternatively, you can specify an EPSG code.
    # "init=epsg:2163"
    #
