<DIV>Hi </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am trying to use gdal_translate to convert some image files (PNGs and JPEGs) into GeoTIFFs for using in Mapserver. I am using the gdal_translate utility. The problem I am having is getting the proper Projection information embedded. I want to assign EPSG:2193 (NZGD2000 / New Zealand Transverse Mercator 2000).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have .jgw / .pgw worldfiles and ESRI .prj files for my input files.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>When I try:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>gdal_translate -of GTiff -co "TILED=YES" -a_srs "EPSG:2193" infile.jpg outfile.tif</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>then examine outfile.tif with gdalinfo, it shows:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>PROJCS["unnamed",<BR> GEOGCS[,<BR> DATUM["unknown",<BR> SPHEROID["unretrievable - using WGS84",6378137,298.257223563]],<BR> PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],<BR> UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]],<BR> UNIT["metre",1,<BR> AUTHORITY["EPSG","9001"]],<BR> AUTHORITY["EPSG","2193"]]</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It doesn't seem to be finding the correct EPSG reference. I have GDAL_DATA environment variable specified, and have also included it in my path. I am using the gdal utilities that came with ms4w.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Many thanks,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
