I am glad that you figured it out. You can always get the version from the gdal utility too: david$ ogrinfo --version GDAL 1.9.0, released 2011/12/29 On Wed, Feb 6, 2013 at 7:34 PM, Chris Henrick wrote: > no worries, > > I tried in bash: > $ ogr2ogr -s_srs '+proj=natearth +wktext' -t_srs "EPSG

Re: [Qgis-user] Qgis tif to kmz?

Thanks Duarte. Yes I know how to georeference an image in GE but I was hoping there was a way of avoiding doing the georeferencing twice (first in Qgis and again in GE). MapInfo has a Google Earth link tool that creates kmz files that can then be used in GE and GPS units. Think it would be nice

Hi, does anyone know how to get the natural earth projection to be recognized by QGIS? I've tried making a custom CRS with the parameters specified at PROJ4 with no success: http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/wiki/proj%3Dnatearth I'm on 1.8 mac os much thanks, -Chris ___
