Dear all, I've been struggling with this for some hours, maybe it's my fault or it has been overcome already, anyway:
In grass 6.3cvs I've created a Latlong location with rome40 datum, international ellps. The location was created by using the GUI "create from epsg". The location looks fine, and the "d.where" output of points is reasonable, however, when projecting the data on a UTM location (zone 33 for example) I got the longitude in millions (should be hundreds). To be short, I have tested that in this way the "g.proj -p" gives: ####################################################### GRASS 6.3.cvs (LatLong_rome40):~ > g.proj -p -PROJ_INFO------------------------------------------------- name : Lat/Lon proj : ll datum : rome40 ellps : international pm : rome no_defs : defined towgs84 : -104.1,-49.1,-9.9,0.971,-2.917,0.714,-11.68 -PROJ_UNITS------------------------------------------------ unit : degree units : degrees meters : 1.0 GRASS 6.3.cvs (LatLong_rome40):~ > ######################################################### Note that it gives "pm=rome" If I create the location with the "Projection values" option the "g.proj -p" output looks slightly different and without the pm=rome: ######################################################## GRASS 6.3.cvs (prova_latlong):~ > g.proj -p -PROJ_INFO------------------------------------------------- name : Latitude-Longitude datum : rome40 towgs84 : -104.1,-49.1,-9.9,0.971,-2.917,0.714,-11.68 proj : ll ellps : international -PROJ_UNITS------------------------------------------------ unit : degree units : degrees meters : 1.0 GRASS 6.3.cvs (prova_latlong):~ > ######################################################### When I re-project data from this latter location in the UTM location I get the right numbers. I hope this might help, Francesco _______________________________________________ grassuser mailing list [email protected] http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grassuser
