Let's check on the database itself (I was not referring to the INSPIRE case, but in general). I created a little program, attached, that scans the EPSG database in its natural order and checks all the projected CRS, seeing what their axis order is. The result confirm what you said, 30% of the projected SRS in the official database, v 7.5, is indeed in North/East order: total: 3522 north/east: 1068 unknown: 41 Do you know why this order is preferred? Really makes no sense to me (this is not boat/aircraft navigation) Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing. Andrea Aime GeoSolutions S.A.S.
