[ka-Map-users] Issue regarding display format of Shapefiles

[Kunal Krishna]

Hi all,

This is Kunal.  I am a master' student at georgia tech. We are developing a electricity market project using Kamap for the United States.

I have downloaded the shapefile of USA and was trying to integrate it with Kamap.

Link - 
http://nationalatlas.gov/atlasftp.html?openChapters=chpbound#chpbound

I am able to see data being downloaded in the browser but cannot see the map. I feel its a issue with the output format. How do i know what is the output format supported by this shapefile ? 

It would be great if you can help us out and resolve this issue.

Here is the mapfile that i am using
