[Qgis-user] Maine West (ft) projection

[Nicolas Cadieux]

Hi, 
You should look for the .prj that should be with the .shp.  If it's not there, your file was probably imported using the project CRS and that explains why it's in the wrong place...  If the .prj is there, but not recongized in QGIS, it should have been imported as a User CRS. 
If you can't find it, or if it's wrong, google EPSG and proj4.  You should find what you are looking for and then you can create a user CRS in QGIS.

I checked all the projection and didn’t find Maine West in qgis. How can I add it to the list of projections? What information do I need for that? Thanks for any pointers.
