<div dir="ltr">Malika,<div>that is great news, thank you to the people involved to make this happen. Did you manage to use it? What OS are you using? Windows?</div><div><br></div><div>Because, I just tried on Mac OS X and Linux and I couldn't find it in QGIS. However, I am able to find it in the underlying libraries like PROJ and GDAL so there is an issue with QGIS picking it up. I am talking with one of the QGIS lead dev to try to sort it out.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Also I wanted to make another quick note for other users, there are two Kandawala reference systems [1] [2]. </div><div>5234 is a projected coordinate system using the Kandawala datum and 4244 is a geographic coordinate system (not projected) using the same datum.</div>
