[Gdal-dev] Trouble importing Arc 8.3 projection file into OGR SRS

[William Lyons]

Hello Frank, and List,

 

I'm attempting to import the Arc 8.3 projection file below into an
OGRSpatialReference using SetFromUserInput().

But, I get OGRERR_CORRUPT_DATA as a result.  So, my questions are:  Is
this supposed to happen? And,

If so, is there some way to import it?

 

NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_17N.prj :

 

PROJCS["NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_17N",GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1983",DATUM["D
_North_American_1983",SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137,298.257222101]],PRIMEM
["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],PROJECTION["Transve
rse_Mercator"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",500000],PARAMETER["False_Northi
ng",0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",-81],PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",0.9996
],PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",0],UNIT["Meter",1]]

 

Thanks,

 

William Lyons
