Dear all,
I just did my first reprojection using ogr2ogr. The process went quite
patchy and I wonder if this is because of a bug or because I am not
understanding something really basic.

I assumed that the following command would do all my work:
% ogr2ogr -f csv -s_srs EPSG:27700 -t_srs WGS84 output.csv input.vrt
-lco GEOMETRY=AS_XY
It does not work however, and I get an error about "Failed to initialize
PROJ.4 " due to "unknown ellipical parameter name". See the full error
at the bottom of this email.
Alex,
As far as I can see this should have worked, and I'm quite mystified
at the error you got since the proj.4 string does contain +ellps=airy
defining the ellipse.
ERROR 6: Failed to initialize PROJ.4 with `+proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2
+k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000 +ellps=airy +datum=OSGB36 +units=m
+no_defs'
I'm sorry I can't offer any sort of useful suggestion.
Best regards,
--
