Hi,<br>
<br>
Your easiest bet is to use WGS84 with UTM Zones. It covers the
planet, and the UTM zones are meter. See attachments for the
zones. Ex: EPSG 32618 = WGS84 / UTM18N <br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>My problem:</div>
<div>I have to create a series of maps all around the
world. For each map, I need a appropriate CRS in meters
(t create buffers etc…) </div>
<div>Does anybody know a source out there where I can see
the extends of existing projections I can use for each
map?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I keep bouncing up to <a moz-do-not-send="true"

but the list is of no use to me, as there is no map.</div>
<div>thanks</div>
