Hello,
I'm not able to save a spatial reference to a GML file and would like help
understanding why. I'm creating a new GML from a copied feature. I assign the
spatial reference to both the output layer and geometry. During debug, the
layer and geometry report that the SR has been assigned correctly
(GetSratialRef/GetSpatialReference). When I open the result GML file in
another script, the spatial reference is empty.
It's a non-standard SRS (albers, units feet) - not sure if this is an issue.
I'm using GDAL 1.10 compiled with Expat. I'm fairly new to all of this. Any
help is appreciated. I'm including most of the script, b/c I'm not sure where
my error might be. Some of it is taken from the GDAL/OGR Cookbook.
drv = ogr.GetDriverByName("GML")
ds = drv.Open(gmlin,0)
srs = osr.SpatialReference()
proj4str = "+proj=aea +lat_1=29.5n +lat_2=45.5n +lat_0=23.0n +lon_0=96.0w
+x_0=0.0 +y_0=0.0 +units=us-ft +datum=NAD83"
srs.ImportFromProj4(proj4str)
lyr = ds.GetLayer()
lyr.SetAttributeFilter("cat = " + cat)
outds = drv.CreateDataSource(gmlout,options = ["FORMAT=GML3"])
outlyr = outds.CreateLayer(outlyrname,srs,lyr.GetGeomType())
inLayerDefn = lyr.GetLayerDefn()
for i in range(0, inLayerDefn.GetFieldCount()):
fieldDefn = inLayerDefn.GetFieldDefn(i)
outlyr.CreateField(fieldDefn)
outLayerDefn = outlyr.GetLayerDefn()
for feat in lyr:
geom = feat.GetGeometryRef()
outfeat = ogr.Feature(outLayerDefn)
for i in range(0, outLayerDefn.GetFieldCount()):
outfeat.SetField(outLayerDefn.GetFieldDefn(i).GetNameRef(),
feat.GetField(i))
geom.AssignSpatialReference(srs)
outfeat.SetGeometry(geom)
outlyr.CreateFeature(outfeat)
Thank you,
Elke
