Hi Amy,

Unfortunately, I dont think that the tif itself includes the
projection information as its only stored in the tfw, and at the
moment, there is no way to include the tfw with your upload. I think
we should file this as a bug/feature request against geonode and I
think its something we should be able to implement fairly easily.

Do you have a way to run the gdal command line utilities? If so, you
can easily create a new GeoTiff that includes the projection
information inside the tif itself like this:

gdal_translate -of GTiff NED_086555638.tif NED_086555638_x.tif

Let me know if this works for you.

Jeff
