Hi, I'm working on using Mapnik as a WMS server that serves Mercator-projected maps. I've hit quite a few snags: it doesn't seem like you can define a projection like mercator in worldMapFactory.py (since you can't define a Map object) and the shapefiles I'm working with (the world shapefiles from http://www.cipotato.org/diva/data/MoreData.htm ) have a SRS WKT undefined (output of ogrinfo http://dpaste.com/72758/ ). Reprojecting those shapefiles with ogr2ogr has produced maps that consist of a single dot. I'm puzzled.
Does anyone have this working? I'd be interested to learn how it happens. Oh, also: I'm doing this on a mod_python server for WMS - is there any interest for that? Ha, and another also: if there are any Mapnik experts available for hire, let me know: we're (developmentseed) looking for someone to help out some very interesting projects. Thanks! Tom MacWright
