Hi Nicolas !
Thanks for your answer.
SRID is not relevant while I am working on the data, but I want to
be able to export my data in different spatial references, that's
why I specified my SRID while importing the data (with shp2pgsql).
Was it wrong to do that ? Should I have imported the data with no
SRID, and converting the spatial coordinates only when doing ther
exports ?
