Hi
I have two shape files of which I do not know the projection (and it
seems that the person I got them from does not know either...). The maps
are from the Keurboom nature reserve area in South Africa
(http://plak.co.za/moreinfo.php?id=347) and the two shp files have the
folowing bounding boxes:
In layer spatial reference system units : xMin,yMin 21340.4,-3755528.75
: xMax,yMax 34244.9,-3749187.87
In layer spatial reference system units : xMin,yMin 17001.2,-3754438.15
: xMax,yMax 37019.9,-3743929.77
I know this is a guessing game, but it must be a common projection - the
map datum is very likely (almost certainly) WGS84.
Any suggestions welcome,
Next to Lester's precise suggestions, this would be my path of choice:
Search for Type='projected CRS' and Area='South Africe' here:
http://www.epsg-registry.org/ and then see which of these seem to fit.
