[mapserver-users] New to mapserver; question about USGS DRG/GeoTIFF files

[Jon Miner]

Hi Roger -

Thanks for the advice, but no change.  I did stumble across the advice to try to run "shp2img" and even with debug set to "5", get very little debugging information.

# shp2img -m test.map -all_debug 5 -o test.png
GDAL: GDALOpen(/opt/fgs/apps/gmap-demo-cvs_MS_VERSION_54/htdocs/./../data/o43071a4.tif, this=0x9bd61b0) succeeds as GTiff.
GDAL: GDALDeregister_GTiff() called.

The resulting test.png ends up being all white.

The actual TIFF file (10MB) can be found here:

http://trainguy.dyn.dhs.org/~jminer/o43071a4.tif

Thanks

Hi Jon,

You don't appear to have any projection info in your map file.  Since you have "UNITS dd" in it, I assume you want to display the map in lat/lon WGS84?  If so, your MAP file needs an entry that looks like this:

  PROJECTION
    "init=epsg:4326"
  END

and your usgs LAYER (the name should be quoted btw) should have the UTM projection defined in it, like this:

LAYER
  NAME "usgs"
  PROJECTION  "init=epsg:26719" END

Best of luck,

Roger
