[Mapserver-users] Custom Projections

Hello list!

I am wondering if it is possible to use projection objects in a map file to reproject a local custom grid into UTM Coordinates for display with other layers in MapServer. For example ...

My data is on a local Mine Grid.

-'north' on the mine grid is at an azimuth of 043 degrees.
-the units of the mine grid are feet.

-I can determine a false easting, and false northing at the origin or any point on the mine grid (the UTM Zone 10N coordinates of '0,0' on the mine grid).

If I could project my data this way it would save a huge effort in converting the data. 

Any help is very much appreciated, Thanks,
Ken Lord
