[OSGeo Africa] CRS in use in South Africa

[manfred at egger-gis.at]

Hi again!
 
Is someone interested to develop a free gis tool "Check South African Projection"
 
For Spain and Austria there are existing tools.
 
You find more info here: [ https://www.egger-gis.at/automatic-projection-detection/checkcountryprojection/ ]( https://www.egger-gis.at/automatic-projection-detection/checkcountryprojection/ )
 
Can someone send my a shapefile with administrative units?
 
Best,
 
Manfred

Hi Africa-listers,
 I want to set an informal assignment for my candidates, to help them recognise common CRSes used in South Africa (South, not Southern).

 Off the top of my head I can think of:

Non projected Lat Long
Lo system (North and/or South facing) projected from either Clarke 1880 [if very old] or WGS84
UTM33-36SAre there any others in common use?
 If so, by whom?

 Thanks and keep well,
 Zoltan
