RASTER Layer.

[Ed McNierney]

Ryan -
 
The example MAP file you give seems (at a quick look) OK if all your
input data is in the same projection.  The only way you know what
projections to use is by knowing your source data.  Some source formats,
like GeoTIFF, will have projection information embedded in them.
Others, like your shapefiles, usually do not - you need to know what you
have.
 
Do you think all your data is in the same projection?  What does the
listgeo command tell you when you use it to dump the metadata from the
basin_alb.tif file?
 
I'm going to guess that your raster image is in the Albers or other
projection, and your shapefiles are in unprojected geographic
coordinates.

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] RASTER Layer.



Hello Listserv,

I'm new to Map Server and I am having some difficulties with getting a
raster output to work.  So far I have been able to get a TYPE LINE
output to work.  I want to add another layer, a RASTER layer, but it
does not work and I don't know what I am doing wrong.  Will someone scan
my code to see if I have done something incorrectly?  I am outputting my
data to a Flash viewer in a HTML template.

Thank you,

Ryan
