Hi Lester,
I think you can setup another custom projection:
GEOGCS["GCS_Mars_2000",DATUM["Mars_2000",
SPHEROID["Mars_2000_IAU_IAG",3396190.0,169.8944472236118]],PRIMEM["Reference_Meridian",0.0],
UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]]
and this geographic CRS may already exist in qgis predefined CRSs.
Then you can set your projected CRS as project crs, and set geographic CRS
above in layout (choose "Map x" item, add a new grid to "Grids" in item
properties, click "Modify Grid", set geographic CRS as grid CRS in "Appearance"
properties group, then set proper intervals).
Regards,
Bojun Jia

Subject: [Qgis-user] Mars projection
Hello,
I am trying to setup a custom projection for Mars using the WKT:
PROJCS["Mars_Equidistant_Cylindrical", GEOGCS["Mars 2000", DATUM["D_Mars_2000",
SPHEROID["Mars_2000_IAU_IAG",3396190.0,169.89444722361179]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0], UNIT["Decimal_Degree",0.0174532925199433]],
PROJECTION["Equidistant_Cylindrical"], PARAMETER["False_Easting",0],
PARAMETER["False_Northing",0], PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",0],
PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1",0], UNIT["Meter",1]]
This is all fine and it validates ok.
What I need is to be able to use the Mars projection and be able to overlay
Longitude Latitude grid lines in layout, but I get no valid transform for the
default WGS84 etc. Anyone sorted out how this works?
Thanks
Lester_______________________________________________
