I have downloaded a BSB chart from the NOAA site at
<http://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/mcd/Raster/download_agreement.htm>

Chart #50 (NORTH PACIFIC OCEAN EASTERN PART)

The chart seems correctly referenced (it contains many GCPs, I checked some of them), but when I open it with qgis 1.0 preview 2, the latitudes displayed are wrong. For exemple, if I put the cursor on the 15° parallel of the chart, qgis displays 13.2°.

For me there is an issue with the referencing of the image. I generated
a 1x1 degree graticule in QGIS using the graticule plugin, set value of
1 in your dataset to be transparent and underlaid the vmap country
boundaries. The BSB dataset aligns with neither the vmap or the
graticule. See screenshot link below. Have you been able to verify that
it is properly aligned when opening in other GIS software?

Hi Tim,

Thanks for your answer. I have checked the file with SeaClear (<http://www.sping.com/seaclear/>), and the coordinates are correctly displayed.

On this screen shot <http://dl.free.fr/qu2tpayGr>, I have put the cursor on the map at 20°N, 120°W, and you can see that the coordinates displayed at the lower right corner of the screen are correct.

Best regards,
Jean-Claude
