Hi developers,

working with qgis 1.7 I found out, that the CRS definition in the layers properties dialog are wrong visualized, even if the CRS information in the .prj file is correct. This happens for EPSG 25832. In the dialog it is displayed as EPSG: 3044.

thanks a lot
Otto

I also noticed this, with epsg 4326 being recognized as another (don't remember exactly) CRS.

  • Priority changed from Normal to High
  • Operating System deleted (Windows 7)

So I confirm this also on Windows. I have wgs84/4326 layers (both vectors and rasters) that are recognized as

EPSG:4148 - Hartebeesthoek94

Using trunk on Ubuntu.

Do the .prjs contain a EPSG references?

PROJ.4 wise EPSG:25832 and EPSG:3044 are identical as are EPSG:4326 and EPSG:4148. So without a direct EPSG reference GDAL doesn't have a chance to figure out the desired EPSG code.
