Hi,
I have a shape file created in an ESRI project, and it is using the
ESRI:102005 projection (USA_Contiguous_Equidistant_Conic). I have a set of
lat/long points and need to identify which fall within the geography defined
by the shape.
I am having trouble converting the lat/long to the same projection as the
shapefile.
I found some information on this at:
http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/102005/
I listed the contents of the .prj file below. I can see which tools are
available to convert between projections, but the problem I have now is that
geotools does not seem to support this ESRI projection. It does not
recognize the Equidistant_Conic portion, and I can not seem to find any
geotools information on that or simple conic, which seems to be the same
thing.
Is there an additional library to support ESRI projections? Or does anyone
know offhand if there is an equivalent supported projection? This seems
like a fairly straightforward thing to do, but I seem to hit a well with
this specific projection. Any help would be appreciated.
