You can also look to http://spatialreference.org/, I've had great success
there.

Subject: [Geoserver-users] Projection and map-wrapping issue from Chennai -
reg

 

Hello !

 

Thanks for the kind reply on why the map was being distorted. We spent quite
some time on this. Once we used srid= 32644, we could see the map properly..
But we are not sure if this is the srid that we should adopt for our maps.
Following is the projection file content (ArcGIS):

 

PROJCS["WGS_1984_Transverse_Mercator",GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984",DATUM["D_WGS_198
4",SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137.0,298.257223563]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],UNI
T["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],PARAMETER[
"False_Easting",1000000.0],PARAMETER["False_Northing",1000000.0],PARAMETER["
Central_Meridian",78.25],PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",0.9996],PARAMETER["Latitud
e_Of_Origin",10.75],UNIT["Meter",1.0]]

 

However http://prj2epsg.org/search gives a few SRIDs which do not suit our
datasets.  If we have to add this to our spatial ref sys table (PostGIS), we
are not sure how to give the proj4text value.. Otherwise, we need to know
the right SRID that we have to adopt.

 

Pls guide us on this..  

 

Also, kindly let us know any other links which we could browse to educate us
on this, pls.
