[GRASS-user] Reprojection of raster maps in various platforms: projected coordinates are different

[Uttam Kumar]

Thank you so much.

Yes the datum should have been NAD83. This is perfect. Please summarize me
how did you do this transformation from sinusoidal to Lambert Azimuthal
Equal Area?

I have all my source images in sinusoidal projection in a location called
"Landsat_sinu".

I want to create a target locatoin "Landsat_laea"? I tried using the
default option in GRASS GUI and the options I selected was

1.) *Select coordinate system parameters from a list*

2.) Projection code: *laea*

3.) Datum with associated ellipsoid:
Central parallel: *30*
Central Meridian: *-96*
False easting: *0*
False northing: *0*

4.) Datum code: *nad83*
5.) Select from the list of datum transformation: *1 used in whole nad83
region*

+proj=laea
+lat_0=30
+lon_0=-96
+x_0=0
+y_0=0
+no_defs
+a=6378137
+rf=298.257222101
+towgs84=0.000,0.000,0.000
to_meter=1
+datum=nad83

Finish.

Is everything ok with this for the below (required) target definition?

*PROJ.4 : '+proj=laea +lat_0=30 +lon_0=-96 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +datum=NAD83
+units=m +no_defs '*

Looks like at some point I am making a small mistake.
