Hi Jose
Epsg 54004 is the classic Mercator projection. The units it uses are not
degrees but meters (only at the equator these are real meters). Using
proj I get the following boundary values (note that -180W/-90S and
180E/90N cannot be represented in a Mercator projection):
proj +init=epsg:54004
-170 -80
-18924313.43 -15496570.74
170 80
18924313.43 15496570.74
Hope this helps,
Jan

Hi
I'm trying to use Google maps & Mapserver with partial success...
I have a .shp configured in mapserver and I can get a transparent tile from
an html page where it load google satellite view and my tiles.
The problem is that I wasn't using any projection on my .map so every tile
was a little distorted.
I added the epsg:54004 project to the .map but now the tiles are empty.
Do you have any idea why this my be happening?
Thanks
