Dear List,
I occasionally use Google Earth –GE– (kml files) and I am aware of the fact
that there is a bit of distortion (i.e., metric offset) between GE and other
projections for a variety of reasons. I am wondering if anyone knows whether
there is an EPSG code for KML format so that I can create
Hi Bulent,
the officiale EPSG for Spherical Mercator is EPSG:3785 [1] , though
you can find EPSG.900913 too (this is depracted now, as far as I
know).

As far as I know, kml files are in EPSG:4326 (for example,
http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_kml.html), but if you want to use images from
Google Earth, you should use EPSG:3785.
