Hi,
I use GDALGetProjectionRef as it is shown in the GDAL Warp API Tutorial,
but it delivers a wrong CS.
gdalinfo delivers the following:
Coordinate System is:
PROJCS["DHDN / Gauss-Kruger zone 3",
GEOGCS["DHDN",
DATUM["Deutsches_Hauptdreiecksnetz",
SPHEROID["Bessel 1841",6377397.155,299.1528128000009,
...
GDALGetProjectionRef delivers this:
PROJCS["unnamed",GEOGCS["DHDN",DATUM["unknown",SPHEROID["unretrievable -
using WGS84",6378137,298.257223563]]
,PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]]
,UNIT["metre",1,AUTHORITY["EPSG","9001"]],AUTHORITY["EPSG","31467"]]
I think that this is the reason why the warp doesn't work.
Can anyone of you help me with that?
Best regards,
Florian
