I have also imported the road network layer from the Mumbai Freemap and here is the WMS URL: http://mumbai.freemap.in/wms.cgi?srs=epsg:4326&format=image/png&request=GetMap&service=WMS&version=1.1.1&layers=road_net_line_4326 Good for comparing to AND's road network. ;-) S.K. 2008/7/6 Shekhar Kr

I spent today attempting to grapple with these issues, with some success. We've reprojected the WMS into wgs84 (EPSG:4326) from UTM 43N (EPSG:32643) by reprojecting the shape files using ogr2ogr.

UTM which EPS:32643 appears to be, could be implemented within the wmsplugin. The WMSplugin uses some classes from jcoord, to convert from OSGB (what the NPE wms server uses) to wgs84. (OSGB is itself Transverse Mercator too) Looking at the jcoord package, it also has classes to convert from UTM

Looking forward to it! For those who arrive on the Friday, is there anything "officially" planned? Should we add some ideas to the wiki? Drinks and a bite to eat either in the city or at the venue? Cheers, Tim ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap
