Hi,

I am dealing with a problem where I am importing an AutoCAD description of an airport (DXF) into PostGIS. I have a Python script which will import each coordinate to a PostGIS geometry with SRID = -1 (since I do not have real world coordinates, but Cartesian coordinates from a point of origin). I do, however, have a lat/long reference point, which represents the origin of my x/y CAD coordinates. I would like to be able to store my CAD coordinates points as Long/Lat (SRID=4326).
Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Ilan

What country is the site in? What units are used for the drawings grid? Do you know the geographic datum?

It may require a fair amount of pre-processign before the data can be accurately (de)projected to LatLong.

Once the details of the drawing grid are known, there is a python wrapper for Proj4 which could be used to (de)project the points on the way into the database.
