David was correct about what these ENVI header values represent.   You
can verify this yourself by opening an image in ENVI that is in the
Geographic Lat/Lon projection (i used the world_dem file that comes
with ENVI) and going to File->Edit ENVI Header.  From there select
Edit Attributes and then Map Info... from that pulldown menu.  Then
open the corresponding .hdr file for the image you opened in a text
editor.  You can match up numbers to the values they represent that
way.
