Hi all, just a feature check of Mapserver.
Should Mapserver read the projection information in the geotiff header, if PROJECTION is not set in the LAYER def. of the map file? I'm testing with Mapserv 5.1-dev, and it's not working without PROJECTION, only when PROJECTION is set. I will soon try with a recent version of Mapserver (compiling). Here is my geotiff header (gdalinfo): Coordinate System is: PROJCS["Mercator WGS84", GEOGCS["unnamed", DATUM["WGS_1984", SPHEROID["WGS 84",6378137,0, AUTHORITY["EPSG","7030"]], AUTHORITY["EPSG","6326"]], PRIMEM["Greenwich",0], UNIT[,0.0174532925199433]], PROJECTION["Mercator_1SP"], PARAMETER["central_meridian",0], PARAMETER["scale_factor",1], PARAMETER["false_easting",0], PARAMETER["false_northing",0], UNIT["unknown",1]] Origin = (-143878.103329198609572,7218088.338938739150763) Pixel Size = (75.000000000000000,-75.000000000000000) Metadata: AREA_OR_POINT=Point TIFFTAG_DATETIME=2010:09:21 14:32:57 TIFFTAG_MINSAMPLEVALUE=0 TIFFTAG_MAXSAMPLEVALUE=255 Image Structure Metadata: INTERLEAVE=BAND Corner Coordinates: Upper Left ( -143878.103, 7218088.339) ( 1d17'32.92"W, 54d26'4.08"N) Lower Left ( -143878.103, 6441988.339) ( 1d17'32.92"W, 50d 9'52.31"N) Upper Right ( 660946.897, 7218088.339) ( 5d56'14.59"E, 54d26'4.08"N) Lower Right ( 660946.897, 6441988.339) ( 5d56'14.59"E, 50d 9'52.31"N) Center ( 258534.397, 6830038.339) ( 2d19'20.83"E, 52d21'4.61"N) Band 1 Block=10731x97 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Gray Mapfile (partly): MAP UNITS DD PROJECTION "init=epsg:4326" END LAYER NAME "mygeotiff" DATA "geo.tiff" TYPE RASTER PROJECTION "proj=merc" "a=6378137" "b=6378137" "lat_ts=0.0" "lon_0=0.0" "x_0=0.0" "y_0=0" "k=1.0" "units=m" "nadgri...@null" END END END cheers Jørn Vegard Røsnes _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
