Hi, .ric is the index file for MpGuide 6.5. You get an equivalent xml index file created by gdal (gdal notes web page) when you add your tiffs. the .tfw files contain the extens for the tif files but if your tiffs are geotiffs then these would already contain this extent info within its header. Y

You need to either change the coordinate system of the map to be XY-M (easy, but not may not be desireable for other data). Or add a coordinate system override to the raster featuresource, mapping XY-M to EPSG:4019. The last option requires that your raster data is coordinate value compatible wi

That seems to work out correctly. You should try to add a vector layer with data that displays correctly, in the same area. Then make a new map, and add both the raster layer as well as the vector layer. Make sure that the raster layer featuresource projection is the same as the map's. Manual
