[ka-Map-users] ka-Map-users Digest, Vol 47, Issue 9

Hi Donny,

Thanks for the feedback.  So you are suggesting I should re-project the
data to DD?  Just wondering whether I'd be able to keep it in its native
UTM, or if I need to set up separate reprojected data.

I am building an application where all the data is in UTM meters.  In my
.map file, I have the Extent and Units parameters set that way.  The
user would like to see the cursor location and extent displayed in
Decimal Degrees.  Is this possible to do in Ka-Map?

Mr. Lorenzo,

Ok, thank you, Sir. i'll try to enhance the kaSearch.php.
So, it is not the matter of *.map configuration in the "searchfield"
"layer_field_name" part, is it Sir?

Donny,
to do that you should enhance kaSearch.php

Hi, Bob

perhaps you can try these steps:
1. in your *.map file, set UNITS part into DD and set PROJECTION into
'proj=longlat' like below:
MAP
? NAME DEMO
? # Map image size
? SIZE 500 300
? UNITS dd
? TRANSPARENT ON
? 
? FONTSET etc/font.txt
? 
? EXTENT 93.812567 -17.025526 143.016024 12.672460
? PROJECTION
??? 'proj=longlat'
??? 'ellps=WGS84'
??? 'datum=WGS84'
??? 'no_defs'
??? ''
? END

2. and to display the extent in decimal degrees, perhaps you should
change 'Map Units' of your original map data
from 'Meters' into 'Decimal Degrees' 
this can be done by using any GIS software, for example: QuantumGIS
and then, set the same EXTENT in your *.map file and your map data's
extent

i hope this helps. 
because it works in my ka-map application, i have map data that are
already in 
decimal degree format. and above is my *.map file setting

Regards
donny
