[GRASS-user] problem creating secant Lambert Conformal Conic projection

[Patton, Eric (NRCan/RNCan)]

Markus,

Responding to a months-old post (sorry!)

Upgrading to proj 4.9.2 and gdal 2.1.2 seemed to fix the problem.

Both secant parallels in my Lambert Conformal projection are now being reported:

> g.proj -we
PROJCS["Lambert_Conformal_Conic",
    GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984",
        DATUM["D_WGS_1984",
            SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137,298.257223563]],
        PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
        UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],
    PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic"],
    PARAMETER["standard_parallel_1",65],
    PARAMETER["standard_parallel_2",75],
    PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",65],
    PARAMETER["central_meridian",-60],
    PARAMETER["false_easting",0],
    PARAMETER["false_northing",0],
    UNIT["Meter",1]]

Sorry for the noise!

proj-4.8.0 is from roughly 13-Mar-2012

I use proj 4.9.1, 04 March 2015

Perhaps some fixes in between?
