looks like raster data in latlon do not return results when the map 
projection is in a projected CRS. Having any type of projected CRS for 
the raster data works fine with projected map CRS. Also having 
everything in latlon works afair...

This is not a problem that can be handled on the p.mapper side since it 
uses only standard MapScript functionality, and that does not seems to 
work properly in your combination. You could ask about that issue on the 
Mapserver mailing list.

The only direct workaround I see is to re-project your raster dataset 
from latlon to a metrical projection system, like UTM, or for larger 
areas Lambert EA or spherical mercator.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
