Hi All,

How can I determine the proper SRID and PROJ4 parameters considering I have the following projection parameters for my data files (see PARAM for the North American CRCM grid here below)? Is it documented somewhere within POSTGIS documentation? Or somewhere within PROJ4 documentation?

Here's the best hack I can come up with for the PROJ4 definition: Proj4js.defs["SR-ORG:6728"]="+proj=stere +lat_0=49.65698 +lat_ts=60 +lon_0=-96.99443 +k=1 +x_0=-1300000 +y_0=100000 +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +units=m +no_defs"; But it is not valid. Need some help or some pointer to documentation for PROJ4 parameters
