Hi!

I have a problem with on-the-fly projection and I would be grateful if you
can help me. In my mapfile there is a raster Landsat image in UTM projection
(zone 37N) and a shapefile containing a polygon with the same extent of the
raster, again in UTM projection. When I set the overall projection of the
mapfile to UTM these two layers coincide perfectly as expected (see
landsat_utm.jpg). But when I change mapfile projection to a different
projection, e.g. geographic or Lambert Conformal Conic, a shift occurs
between the layers and they do not coincide (see landsat_lcc.jpg). Do you
have any idea why this happens? You can find mapfiles that I used below.

Thanks,
