Hello:
A project I am working on has recently updgraded to GDAL 1.6 from an older version (I'm not sure, but I think 1.3) I have a raster with an older projection string that is stored in a .prj file and looks like this: PROJCS["UTM Zone 17, Northern Hemisphere",GEOGCS["NAD83",DATUM["North_American_Datum_1983",SPHEROID["G RS 1980",6378137,298.257222101,AUTHORITY["EPSG","7019"]],TOWGS84[0,0,0,0,0, 0,0],AUTHORITY["EPSG","6269"]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0,AUTHORITY["EPSG","89 01"]],UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433,AUTHORITY["EPSG","9108"]],AXIS["L at",NORTH],AXIS["Long",EAST],AUTHORITY["EPSG","4269"]],PROJECTION["Trans verse_Mercator"],PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0],PARAMETER["central_me ridian",-81],PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9996],PARAMETER["false_easting", 500000],PARAMETER["false_northing",0],UNIT["Meter",1]] I am trying to get the coordinates in lat/lon using some code that looks like this: //Get GDAL reprojection transform void * pTransformArg = GDALCreateReprojectionTransformer(sourceArray, destArray); //Transform int success; double inX = x; double inY = y; double inZ = z; GDALReprojectionTransform(pTransformArg, FALSE, 1, &inX, &inY, &inZ, &success); Where destArray is -> "GEOGCS[\"WGS 84\",DATUM[\"WGS_1984\",SPHEROID[\"WGS 84\",6378137,298.257223563,AUTHORITY[\"EPSG\",\"7030\"]],AUTHORITY[\"EPS G\",\"6326\"]],PRIMEM[\"Greenwich\",0,AUTHORITY[\"EPSG\",\"8901\"]],UNIT [\"degree\",0.01745329251994328,AUTHORITY[\"EPSG\",\"9122\"]],AUTHORITY[ \"EPSG\",\"4326\"]]"; My problem is that when the dataset is opened, the projection string it reports is just "Local_CS[""]" Any ideas on how I can get the projection for the file in a manner that my GDAL conversion will work, or an alternative method for converting?
