Hi Ben This looks like WGS84. You should haev the following in your Map file, top level and/or layer level: PROJECTION "init=epsg:4326" END regards, Robert Sanson
>>> Ben Kuek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 28/05/2008 3:44:09 p.m. >>> Hi, My understanding of map projections is a bit rusty so I hope anyone can point out where I am wrong. I have a vector map source in shapefiles where it's .prj file has only the following definition GEOGCS["Geographic Coordinate System",DATUM["WGS84",SPHEROID["GRS 1980",6378137,298.2572220960423]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]] When the map loaded, I can confirm that the map is wrong by it's shifting to the north by a few hundred meters. I can use : OFFSET 0 70 in the STYLE object but it doesn't seem like the right thing to do. I am not very sure if the issue lies with projection or the map source and if there's a specific projection setting I must use.
