[gdal-dev] Re: Convert from CA83-VF (EPSG 2229) to WGS84 (EPSG 4326) using gdaltransform
HI Frank, thanks for your help, I did as per your reply but I still get the same error message: ERROR 4: Unable to open EPSG support file gcs.csv.

Kavin, Something like: ogr2ogr -t_srs EPSG:4326 -s_srs EPSG:2229 out.shp in.shp If the in.shp has a properly defined in.prj it will not be necessary to use the -s_srs switch to set the source coordinate system.

Failed to process SRS definition: EPSG:4326 How do i say this is my input and this is my output file? if i give an o/p file name in the above command then it says it does not exist, which is correct because i want it to create it. hence i gave the same file name with an overwrite command but it did not work either. Kavin, You cannot do update in place the way you want with ogr2ogr. I'm afraid you will need to transform your features into a new shapefile.
