Potlatch 2's improved (not deployed yet) shapefile background layers asks you for the projection before loading, rather than relying on the .prj file. For OSGB it uses: 'EPSG:27700': "+proj=tmerc +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-2 +k=0.9996012717 +x_0=400000 +y_0=-100000 +ellps=airy +datum=OSGB36 +units=m +no_defs" "OSGB36": {towgs84: "446.448,-125.157,542.060,0.1502,0.2470,0.8421,-20.4894", ellipse: "airy", datumName: "Airy 1830"} cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/OSM-Analysis-New-Data-and-bot-tp6455312p6473355.html Sent from the Great Britain mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
