Marc,<br><br>proj4 usually comes with the gdal library. Instead of coding your own program, first try the ogr2ogr utility[1] that comes with the gdal library.<br><br>[1]: <a href="http://www.gdal.org/ogr2ogr.html">http://www.gdal.org/ogr2ogr.html</a><br>

<div link="blue" vlink="purple" lang="EN-AU"><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="">I have a GIS database with all coordinates stored in WGS84 datum. I am trying to translate the coordinates of the database to the datum of my map. I am creating two OGRSpatialReference, one for WGS84 and one for the current map. I am then creating an OGRCoordinateTransformation. When I do so I get a PROJ.4 error – “No PROJ.4 translation for destination SRS, coordinate transformation initialisation has failed”<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="">Question – Do I HAVE to use PROJ.4 to do the translation? Can I not just load the SRS with a WKT? I wish to avoid PROJ.4 as I’m unsure how to build it.<u></u><u></u></p>
