[mapguide-users] Access DB and coord systems

[Gord McKenzie]

Well, I have created all of this through Mapguide Studio.  I do not see a
way to define more than one coord sys for my connection.  Any particular
place I should check for this kind of issue?

 

Thanks

One thing I can think of would be if your ODBC connection lists more than
one coordinate system when queried by the server and the server then could
end up using the wrong one for repro, which would result in the behavior you
describe. Another possibility is that it didn't parse the WKT string
correctly for the ODBC connection, although that's unlikely, given that LL83
is a popular one.

I have a table in access with lat and long.  I can create and successfully
Test Connection to the ODBC database which is identified as LL83.  I can
create a layer, a map and a web layout that will show this data.  If I set
my map coord system to UTM zone, the data is not transformed.  I can add
shape and sdf layers that are LL83 source and reproject just fine.  Only DB
data sources don't seem to want to reproject.

 

Can anyone offer any reason or advice?

 

Thanks
