Description

Hello folks,
the proj string for custom Italian Sardinia projection is wrong because it has got 2 towgs84 setting.

The right one is this:

+proj=tmerc +lat_0=0 +lon_0=9 +k=0.9996 +x_0=1500000 +y_0=0 +ellps=intl +units=m +towgs84=-168.6,-34.0,38.6,-0.374,-0.679,-1.379,-9.48 +no_defs

I think that would be better to add GB Roma40 to the name of each custom projections.

Thanks

Luca

I noticed that towgs84 parameters are not right for Italy. According to GRASS those are the right ones:

ROMA40 Fuso 1 Peninsular

Please note that there are also unwanted spaces as in "-104. 1", etc.

I attach the SQL statements to fix 3 entries in the database (only one is correct).
