[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr projection issues

[William Roper]

Hi all,

I've been doing what i thought was a fairly routine merging of shapefiles
and have encountered some unexpected projection issues. If I fail to define
a target srs (-t_srs flag) then the features end up overlaying each other.

I describe the issue in much more detail along with screen shots here:
https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/279992/what-is-causing-ogr2ogr-to-fail-to-merge-shapefiles-without-a-reprojection?noredirect=1#comment447102_279992

You can see the two scripts I've been using here:

Any pointers to better understand what might be going on greatly
appreciated!

Will
