Hello! I have been banging my head against the wall trying to use the
polar stereographic projection, and am hoping one of you that is smarter
than me, which would likely be all of you can help! lol
this projection:
http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/docs/on388/tableb.html#GRID202
when applied via gdal_translate and converted to mercator, results in..
how to describe? well here is a screenshot if you are interested
http://www.blindleper.com/files/gdal/gdal_warp_merc.jpg
and here is what the original looks like before the projection is
assigned and warped (I know the merc warp is good, because I use it on
many other things.. I've just never tried polar stereographic before):
http://www.blindleper.com/files/gdal/original.jpg
so clearly i'm doing something wrong... I've tried varations of lat_ts
like this:
#cs2cs +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84 +to +proj=stere +lat_ts=37
+ellps=WGS84 +lat_0=90 +lon_0=-105 +k=1 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +datum=WGS84
+units=m +no_defs
#cs2cs +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84 +to +proj=stere +lat_ts=7.838
+ellps=WGS84 +lat_0=90 +lon_0=-105 +k=1 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +datum=WGS84
+units=m +no_defs
because i'm not sure what "La1 7.838N" and such mean on that projection
above...
Anyway, I hope someone can help lead me away from the dark side and into
the light... this is driving me bonkers!
cheers,
