[gdal-dev] Converting from Lambert (LCC) to latlong/mercator

[Brian Murray]

Hm, so maybe that value is correct.

1/0.000854993160055 is 1169.59999999961637120000, which would mean its
about 1px per km.

I think I found an issue even before I warp:
gdal_translate -of gtiff -CO TFW=YES -a_ullr -115 56 -105 54 -a_srs
"+proj=lcc +lat_0=56 +lon_0=-115 +lat_2=49.33 +lat_1=54.66 +x_0=0
+y_0=0 +datum=NAD27" n.tif nn.tif

Upper Left  (-115.0000000,  56.0000000) (115d 0'6.63"W, 56d 0'1.81"N)
Lower Left  (-115.0000000,  54.0000000) (115d 0'6.63"W, 56d 0'1.74"N)
Upper Right (-105.0000000,  56.0000000) (115d 0'6.05"W, 56d 0'1.81"N)
Lower Right (-105.0000000,  54.0000000) (115d 0'6.05"W, 56d 0'1.74"N)
Center      (-110.0000000,  55.0000000) (115d 0'6.34"W, 56d 0'1.78"N)

Apparently a_ullr isn't setting it correctly...
