You are right.
I was unjustifiably assuming that the projection info of the
raster was right just because I could display it in QGIS at
its right position, but...

$ gdalinfo -nomd mde10mny.tif
Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF
Files: mde10mny.tif
       mde10mny.aux
       mde10mny.rrd

Hi Agus,

How do you know the tif file has correct information. It likely is not
something that gdal understands

Can you show:

raster("/media/Transcend/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/mde10mny.tif")

GDALinfo("/media/Transcend/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/mde10mny.tif")

and a command line gdalinfo to the same file?

Thanks, Robert

Hi!

Why is it that when we "read" a raster i.e.
dem <- raster("/media/Transcend/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/mde10mny.tif")

(where the tif file is a geotif file with correct projection informatio)
we actually do not get the projection information?

projection(dem)
[1] "NA"

By now I solve it thanks to a SPDF:
delme <-
readOGR(dsn="/media/Transcend/MONTSENY2008/MONTSENY_GEODATA/Limitparcplaespecial",
layer="AmbitPlaEspecial")
projection(dem) <- projection(delme)
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Agus
