Hi Andrea,

Thank you!

As for using bbox in WFS GET, by adding epsg as the fifth element of the bbox 
string, GeoServer recognizes the request for incoming coordinates conversion 
from the srs that is specified in bbox to the native coordinate system of the 
layer defined in typename.

The format is like (WFS 1.1.0): bbox=y1,x1,y2,x2,epsg:3857

However, this technique is not practical since it won't be a hurdle at all for 
the client to conduct conversion (2 pairs of coords) unless the native srs is 
unknown or the client is lack of means for this conversion. What really matters 
is the returning coordinates, it is a smart idea to ask GeoServer do it for you 
by specifying srsName parameter in the WFS GET. Well, OL can do it on the fly 
at the client side too though.

Have a great long weekend!

Guan

Hi Jukka, 

Thank you for the quick reply! That's a typo error. I meant "epsg:3857". 

Now I know I probably used the wrong term. "Reprojection" in WFS context 
means the returning coordinates are in the projection specified by "srsName" 
that is appending to the GET request. 

What I try to accomplish is sending coordinates in "epsg:3857" to a layer 
with the projection, say "epsg:4326". I wish GeoServer WFS could recognize 
this and do the reprojection for incoming coordinates on the fly, which is 
very common for WMS. 



Yes, it should work (we have several automated tests for this behavior). 



Is this even doable using WFS GET? Should I dig into WFS filter option or is 
just another parameter name, i.e., 'SRS' or 'CRS', I missed? 



If it's just the bbox, you can specify the srs as the fifth element, if it's a 
spatial 
filter in an XML OGC filter, you set the srs on each geometry in it 


Cheers 
Andrea
