[mapguide-users] Coordinate Systems

So in MapGuide Studio I export the MapDefinition to XML

My coordinate system looks like this:

 

<CoordinateSystem>PROJCS["OutagamieWI-F",GEOGCS["LL-HPGN",DATUM["HPGN",SPHER
OID["GRS1980",6378137.000,298.25722210]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree"
,0.017453292519943295]],PROJECTION["Transverse Mercator, Wisconsin County
Variation"],PARAMETER["central_meridian",-88.50000000000000],PARAMETER["lati
tude_of_origin",42.71944444440000],PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.999996000000],
PARAMETER["false_easting",803000.000],PARAMETER["false_northing",0.000],UNIT
["Foot_US",0.30480060960122]]</CoordinateSystem>

 

This System for Outagamie County, Wisconsin will not work on MGOS 1.2.If I'm
to edit this and reload the resource using an EPSG or WKT code what would it
look like? Where would I find it?

I am not 100% on the coordinate systems, but I have not found a way to add
coordinate systems.
You can generally use the EPSG code or WKT format for the maps.

The problem is that you cannot enter these codes in MapGuide Studio.
You have to change it in the Xml and then load the modified Xml back into
MapGuide OS.

If someone has an easier solution, please share :D

Does anybody have an answer on how to add missing coordinate Systems to Open
Source 1.2 ..I too have a County Coordinate system In Wisconsin I'd like to
have Mapguide OS recognize.I'm using Mapguide Studio where I can find the
system, but it crashes using OS server.Where can we enter the codes in OS
1.2 so that the Authored Map sees them?
