[mapserver-users] Re: maps all look squished

[Josh Jordan]

I have 8 shapefiles, only the states shapefiles returns a projection from ogrinfo.  It returns:
GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1983",    DATUM["North_American_Datum_1983",        SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]],    PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],    UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]]
It fails if I paste that directly into my mapfile, changing the projection to NAD83 michigan, "EPSG 2252", makes no noticeable difference, a screen shot of the map lines up exactly with the squished maps from before.

it could be projection problem. Have you tried ogrinfo on your dataset? it
will give you correct projection and extents of layer. For debugging
purposes just try to draw one layer with whatever information you get from
ogrinfo.
