Hi Eric
in uDig1.2-M3 the projection is supported. The prj is this
PROJCS["ETRS_1989_LAEA",
GEOGCS["GCS_ETRS_1989",
DATUM["D_ETRS_1989",
SPHEROID["GRS_1980", 6378137.0, 298.257222101]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich", 0.0],
UNIT["degree", 0.017453292519943295],
AXIS["Longitude", EAST],
AXIS["Latitude", NORTH]],
PROJECTION["Lambert_Azimuthal_Equal_Area"],
PARAMETER["latitude_of_center", 52.0],
PARAMETER["longitude_of_center", 10.0],
PARAMETER["false_easting", 4321000.0],
PARAMETER["false_northing", 3210000.0],
UNIT["m", 1.0],
AXIS["x", EAST],
AXIS["y", NORTH]]
and the EPSG short name is ETRS_1989_LAEA.
In the uDig1.1 there are some problems...
there isn't the proper EPSG so:
1. loading this shapefile you have to set a projection
2. the only projection that seems to be the same is that
PROJCS["Ain el Abd / Aramco Lambert",
GEOGCS["Ain el Abd",
DATUM["Ain_el_Abd_1970",
SPHEROID["International 1924", 6378388.0, 297.0,
AUTHORITY["EPSG","7022"]],
AUTHORITY["EPSG","6204"]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich", 0.0, AUTHORITY["EPSG","8901"]],
UNIT["degree", 0.017453292519943295],
AXIS["Lon", EAST],
AXIS["Lat", NORTH],
AUTHORITY["EPSG","4204"]],
PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic_2SP"],
PARAMETER["central_meridian", 48.0],
PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin", 25.08951],
PARAMETER["standard_parallel_1", 17.0],
PARAMETER["false_easting", 0.0],
PARAMETER["false_northing", 0.0],
PARAMETER["standard_parallel_2", 33.0],
UNIT["m", 1.0],
AXIS["x", EAST],
AXIS["y", NORTH],
AUTHORITY["EPSG","2318"]]
But this is a Lambert conformal Conic projection, and the LAEA is a
Lamber Azimut Equal Area, so not the same.
This is a missing of EPSG in the uDig1.1.
Jody what can we do with bugs only related to 1.1? Can you find a way to
fix them and do a new udig1.1 release or should we wait for the 1.2?
Ciao

This seemed to work first try for me in uDig 1.2-M3. shows the alpine
region that overlaps several countries in the countries.shp; the two
data sets show up just fine as I change the map between several
projections; including the one from the supplied shapefile.

Hi Silvia, here are a few datasets with this projection:

Hi Eric,
could you provide us an original shapefile with .prj for this projection?
I have some doubts about it since it seems not to be supported in the EPSG
list... very strange!

Hi Andrea,
I can't set this projection definition in the Custom CRS box.
The closest one I can find in the udig built-in list is ETRS89, but this
doesn't project it correctly against other layers. (GCS_ETRS_1989)
Is there anything in the WKT definition which is non-standard that udig
wouldn't recognize?
As I mentioned this is the projection used for EU datasets but from my
experience OS software (OpenJump, ogr, etc.) doesn't seem to use it with
success. (very few references in Google)
Thanks,
Erik.

Hi Eric,
what exactly means doesn't recognize and what doesn't work?
