Hi Ken, Hi Sajid,
Thanks for the pointers. I think my problem is that grass70 and
g.proj parse the files differently. I.e.,
Here is file teste.prj
PROJCS["Lambert_Conformal_Conic",
GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984",
DATUM["D_WGS_1984",
SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137,298.257223563]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],
PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic"],
PARAMETER["standard_parallel_1",40],
PARAMETER["standard_parallel_2",45],
PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0],
PARAMETER["central_meridian",-109],
PARAMETER["false_easting",0],
PARAMETER["false_northing",0],
UNIT["Meter",1]]
The following does not work
grass70 -e -c teste.prj teste
Creating new GRASS GIS location/mapset...
ERROR: ERROR 4: `teste.prj' not recognised as a supported
file format.
ERROR: Could not read georeferenced file teste.prj using either OGR nor
GDAL
However, this does work
grass70 -c teste
g.proj -c wkt=teste.prj
I'm having even worse luck with PROJ4 syntax of files.
Sajid, I have no problem getting EPSG specs to work, but that's a lttle
too indirect for the audience I'm trying to reach.
Thanks, Dave

I'm trying to understand the simplest way in GRASS7 to create a
location from the command line without using a georeferenced file. So
far, it appears to be
% grass70 -c newLocation
at the OS prompt, followed by
GRASS GIS 7.0.4 > g.proc -c wkt=some WKT text file
You say "without using a georeferenced file" but then use the WKTfile. Why not
use that at the CLI?
grass70 -e -c WKTfile newLocation
grass70 ./newLocation/PERMANENT
I do it in two lines and use -e on the first so that if I run this again, and
the location exists, it will still launch GRASS. If you just do the first line
w/o -e, GRASS won't start if the location exists.
I can't seem to get g.proj to parse any proj4 strings either from
stdin or a file, even substituting the output from a g.proj -j command
from a working location.
A MWE would help debugging.
-k.
