[OpenLayers-Users] Projection Problem

You can use MapServer to reproject your georeferenced tiff and
OpenLayers.Layer.MapServer (or OpenLayers.Layer.WMS) to request it from
Mapserver.

OpenLayers can not reproject raster data as a desktop application as arcgis
can do. But MapServer could do this part.

Betreff: Re: [OpenLayers-Users] Projection Problem

Actually I had a tiff image and it was geo referred  and in arc gis I was
able to see it as globe by changing its projection and to see it in
openlayers I used OpenLayers.Layer.Image

Did I use the wrong option or Had I to use something different??

Pls reply

Regards
Kusum
