Hi, Has EPSG changed again something with the Web Mercator projection? The EPSG report about EPSG:3857 shows that it is using a flattened WGS84 ellipsoid.
http://www.epsg-registry.org/report.htm?type=selection&entity=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::3857&reportDetail=short&style=urn:uuid:report-style:default-with-code&style_name=OGP%20Default%20With%20Code&title=EPSG:3857 Compare with http://www.epsg-registry.org/report.htm?type=selection&entity=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::3785&reportDetail=short&style=urn:uuid:report-style:default-with-code&style_name=OGP%20Default%20With%20Code&title=EPSG:3785 I thought that 3857 was just the same as EPSG:3785 used to be and the same than the fake EPSG:900913. What should I believe now? Is there any valid EPSG code for a spherical world or is it better to go with the self made EPSG:900913? -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
