[mapserver-users] subsetted output, but I don't want that

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

Nowadays it is also possible to use the layers wms_extent metadata, see http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html. So Kevin was actually rather close with his assumption and 
wms_extent "-180 -90 180 90" should make the image to behave correctly.

However, I would absolutely add also map level and layer level PROJECTION blocks.

As an example, the world file associated with this global raster from Natural Earth II http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/50m-natural-earth-2/50m-natural-earth-ii-with-shaded-relief-and-water/


Contains the below text:

          0.00000000000000

No, it's just a plain PNG. I was operating under the assumption that
the EXTENT and UNITS parameters in the mapfile would define the
coordinates of the source image but perhaps that is only constraining
the output?

If that is the case, how can I go about providing georeference for an
image such as that?
