Hi,

for a project I need to define a S-JTSK location. I thought
that we resolved this recently, but apparently not:

# S-JTSK (Ferro) / Krovak
<2065> +proj=krovak +lat_0=49.5 +lon_0=42.5 +alpha=30.28813972222222 +k=0.9999 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +ellps=bessel +pm=ferro +units=m +no_defs  <>

So I do:

g.proj epsg=2065

g.proj -w
PROJCS["Krovak",
    GEOGCS["bessel",
        DATUM["unknown",
            SPHEROID["Bessel_1841",6377397.155,299.1528128]],
        PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
        UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]],
    PROJECTION["Krovak"],
    PARAMETER["latitude_of_center",49.5],
    PARAMETER["longitude_of_center",24.83333333333333],
    PARAMETER["azimuth",0],
    PARAMETER["pseudo_standard_parallel_1",0],
    PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9999],
    PARAMETER["false_easting",0],
    PARAMETER["false_northing",0],
    UNIT["Meter",1]]

This is not quite right. It should be
http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/proj/2003-February/000626.html
something like this:
PROJCS["S-JTSK (Ferro) / Krovak",
     GEOGCS["S-JTSK (Ferro)",
         DATUM["S_JTSK_Ferro",
             SPHEROID["Bessel 1841",6377397.155,299.1528128,
                 AUTHORITY["EPSG","7004"]],
             AUTHORITY["EPSG","6818"]],
         PRIMEM["Ferro",-17.66666666666667,
             AUTHORITY["EPSG","8909"]],
         UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433],
         AUTHORITY["EPSG","4818"]],
     PROJECTION["Krovak"],
     PARAMETER["latitude_of_center",49.5],
     PARAMETER["longitude_of_center",42.5],
     PARAMETER["azimuth",30.28813972222222],
     PARAMETER["pseudo_standard_parallel_1",78.5],
     PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9999],
     PARAMETER["false_easting",0],
     PARAMETER["false_northing",0],
     UNIT["metre",1,
         AUTHORITY["EPSG","9001"]],
     AUTHORITY["EPSG","2065"]]

Is any name remapping still missing in
lib/proj/convert.c
?

Markus
