Hi All Does anyone know of a way to change the crs of a wfs layer? The 'Add WFS Layer' dialog box has a 'Change' button but it does not allow you to alter the CRS at all.
The data set I am trying to access is from LINZ http://data.linz.govt.nz/ and according to their notes it is possible to alter the CRS within the request - as per quote copied from their help notes: "The easiest way to re-project your data on the fly is to add the ‘SRSName’ parameter and an EPSG coordinate system id <http://www.epsg-registry.org/> to your request: SRSName=<SRSName> For example, a request of a NZ Government GNSS CORS layer in NZTM2000<http://www.linz.govt.nz/geodetic/datums-projections-heights/projections/new-zealand-transverse-mercator-2000> (EPSG:2193) would look like the following: http://wfs.data.linz.govt.nz/ <your-API-key>/v/x1029/wfs?service=WFS&request=GetCapabilities&* SRSName=EPSG:2193"* So it is possible but QGIS currently seems to not allow it? Does anyone know of a way to override this? Note - downloading and re-projecting is not a solution in this case, I want the dataset (legal title boundaries) streamed live to various users. If I leave it in it's current CRS (4167) which is unprojected, it displays correctly when using on-the-fly reprojection within QGIS, but then trying to access the $area for a label or using the identify tool crashes QGIS. Am using Windows version, version 009a7d on Win 8 and also tried latest build from a couple of nights ago on a Win 7 machine. Any help appreciated. (Apologies if this comes through twice) -- -Paul
