All, Some progress,
We've managed to add to the PROJ4 EPSG list and verified that it works with a WMS output. So the new EPSG code we added works just fine as a WMS call.
Next we tried the same with a WFS call and got an INIT error, which was traced to OGR, so we then (tried to) build Mapserver without GDAL only to learn that WFS requires it to build. So my question is, where is OGR grabbing it's Projection info from? From the code it looks like there is a parser in place, but we couldn't find where it was being referenced.
Thanks for all help bobb

Is would be nice to get options for our neighboring Counties as well. I work on a couple of other metro area committees and Mapping projects that plan to use MapServer, and I would just as soon use a common format across all projects if possible. I'm not expecting you or anyone else to do the work, only expressing the idea in case you come up with some sort of automatic solution of some sort. :c) I can do the grunt work if needed, but I'm not sure I'm the one to define what the other County info that is supposed to be used for this or not. There is a County Projection data list at the State of Minnesota Dept. of Transportation as well. If some sort of leg work is needed on this end I'm available to group things together to add the County information for the State of Minnesota for example. bobb Kralidis,Tom [Burlington] wrote: > Good question. > > What's your actual projection definition? > > CubeWerx (http://www.cubewerx.com/) holds the 42xxx projection > definitions.
