Description

The built-in TWD 67 / TM2 zone 119 and zone 121 are not correct. They're default parameters are stated as below:

+proj=tmerc +lat_0=0 +lon_0=119 +k=0.9999 +x_0=250000 +y_0=0 +ellps=aust_SA +units=m +no_defs
+proj=tmerc +lat_0=0 +lon_0=121 +k=0.9999 +x_0=250000 +y_0=0 +ellps=aust_SA +units=m +no_defs

However, these setting cannot match those features in TWD 67 to the right positions. Here are the correct parameters for TWD 67 / TM2 zone 119 and 121:

+proj=tmerc +ellps=GRS67 +towgs84=-752,-358,-179,-.0000011698,.0000018398,.0000009822,.00002329 +lon_0=121 +x_0=250000 +k=0.9999 +to +proj=tmerc +datum=WGS84 +lon_0=119 +x_0=250000 +k=0.9999
+proj=tmerc +ellps=GRS67 +towgs84=-752,-358,-179,-.0000011698,.0000018398,.0000009822,.00002329 +lon_0=121 +x_0=250000 +k=0.9999 +to +proj=tmerc +datum=WGS84 +lon_0=121 +x_0=250000 +k=0.9999

Hope they can be fixed at the next release.
