Hi;<br><br>No you can change projection any time you want, the point on your table is;<br>You have objects in different projections but in one table. You have to find which objects are 4326 projection, and which are not...<br>
<br>Another method may be;<br><br>Select st_xmin(the_geom), st_ymin(the_geom) from mypoints<br><br>if the coordinates differ from --> <br><br>Longitude<br> 180 W = -180<br> 180 E = 180<br><br>Latitude<br> 90 N = 90<br>
90 S = -90<br><br>Namely your x not between -180 and 180 and y not between -90 and 90, the objects are in an another projection.<br><br>I mean firstly try to differ different projected objects..<br><br>Regards,<br>IBO... <br>

<div>Your table include objects, more than one projection.. So if there is any object in different projection you can't set your table projection to 4326...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>can you try this!!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Create a new geometry column "the_geom_4326"</div>

<div>then run this</div>

<div>Could it be that a table with data loaded without SRID explicit value has no chance of being updated later to the right one?</div>

Then naively I created a new column named srid for my table and put the right value of SRID for all my data which is 4326 (WGS84, sexagesimal degrees lat lon) in that column but still I get the same error. After that I created a constraint between this new srid column and the srid column from the spatial_ref_sys table but nothing happened, the error is still there.<br>
> It's important to me to solve this issue because all my spatial data was loaded from shapefiles without SRID awareness so they don't have any SRID column. I don't want to reload data changing this so I need a method to alter the tables in such a way to add this new srid column to them that is well related to the spatial context.<br>
