I am running into an issue mapping an image of lat/lon pairs into
google earth. Here's the issue:

From a network link, I am retrieving the BBOX information. From this
bounding box, I am attempting to create an image on from the server of
abstract data within this box, and then returning a series of ground
overlays with these images.

The issue, is that obviously there is no 1:1 mapping of lat/lon to x/y
coordinates. I've seen stuff online about projection data, but none of
it has mapped properly to GE. As of now, the data is accurate for a
whole world view, but once the bbox changes to a more specific area,
the data is significantly further North than it should be.

Has only else tried to do something like this, or knows of the proper
projection to GE so that the lat/lon can be adjusted properly.

Thanks

What x/y grid are you talking about? There are many :)

A working example (eg a network link file, with a link to your server)
would probabyl help us understand your issue.
