Thanks for the response Frank. The coord system is NSWLAM94 http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/3308/ and is supported in more recent ERMapper releases. I realise that GDAL can't support every projection under the sun so I'll just work around it. Probably by having a single GDAL install that I manage and if users want to access that proj then they can use that install or manage their own.

Luke, That is pretty much my suggestion for how to handle it. Is this a coordinate system that you added locally to ERMapper too? Or is it something supported by more recent ERMapper releases, but missing in GDAL?
