Hi list,<br>During my tests, I noticed that when using my build of gdal (1.4.4 on windows xp) I can&#39;t get a Coordinate System for some specific Datasets.<br>As an instance I used gdalinfo from fwtools 2.0.4 on a ECW file and I obtained this Coordinate System (partial copy and paste).<br>

<br>Using &quot;my&quot; gdalinfo I obtain the classic empty string.<br>I guess this issue could be Proj4 related (although I&#39;m not really sure about this).<br>For this reason I surfed the mailing list and I downloaded the proj4 library, I set the PROJ_LIB linking the NAD folder and I added the DLL in the path. (GDAL_DATA has been already set in the past)<br>
Anyway, the result is the same: empty coordinate system returned. As a parallel experiment, I also tried statically linking the library with the same result.<br><br>Is there some additional operations which fwtools based gdalinfo performs?<br>
I&#39;m surely wrong somewhere :)<br>Any help would be greatly appreciated.<br><br>Regards,<br>Daniele Romagnoli<br><br><br>-- <br>-------------------------------------------------------<br>Eng. Daniele Romagnoli <br>Software Engineer<br>
