[mapserver-users] [MapServer-users] working with ESRI coordinate systems in proj.db

[Basques, Bob (CI-StPaul)]

Mark, will this work :  https://epsg.io/6505 or are you trying to import data from your ESRI service.

We (Jim) went a little different route here, we read the ESRI rest service and stuff everything into a Postgres database as a cache and work against that.  We can set whatever EPSG that we need to this way for interoperability.

Steve,

I am using ms4w version 4.0.5, which I think comes with PROJ 5.20

Thank You


Hi Mark: Not something I've tried to do so hopefully someone else can weigh in. What version of Proj are you using? --Steve

Hello,

Could someone help me with setting up mapserver to use a non ESRI projection that is already stored in proj.db?  The coordinate system is for Lyon County, MN #103749 and is stored with ESRI as the authority.  I know that we can set up Mapserver to use Web Mercator by setting the adding "init=epsg:4326" to a projection block.  Unfortunately I cannot access my counties coordinate system by setting the projection with “init=esri:103749”.

Thank you for any help!

Sincerely,
Mark Volz, GISP
