Dear Frank, Thank you for your posting. Since I noticed GDAL 1.9 included new CRSes of Korea, I raised this issues here in QGIS project.
According to one of README[1] file in metacrs project, GDAL is almost the starting point of updating CRS info in other softwares. I noticed that CRSes of QGIS is managed as spatialite db(srs.db and qgis.db) and also found that those CRSes could be updated using a shell script called qgis_srs.sh [2] I don't think this shell script reflect the recent schema of srs.db. However I think I can update or add new Korean CRS to QGIS CRS db. Thank you. With regards, Sanghee [1]http://svn.osgeo.org/metacrs/geotiff/trunk/libgeotiff/csv/README [2]https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/tree/master/resources 2012. 1. 22., 오전 7:37, Frank Warmerdam 작성: > On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 10:14 AM, Sanghee Shin <endof...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Dear all, >> >> South Korea made major CRS changes in 2010 and those new CRS were registered >> to official EPSG code in June, 2010.
