[postgis-users] Loading data with ogr2ogr

[Obe, Regina]

Not sure if it makes a difference, but I usually quote the "EPSG:32633",  but I've never imported from SDE so could be a totally different issue. 

Hope that helps,
Regina

Subject: [postgis-users] Loading data with ogr2ogr


Hi!

I have loaded some data from ArcSDE 9.1 to PostGIS using the ogr2ogr
utility. The load statements typically looks like this:

ogr2ogr -nlt LINESTRING -nln n50_begrensningskurve -lco
GEOMETRY_NAME=the_geom -a_srs EPSG:32633 -f PostgreSQL PG:"dbname=kartdata
user=**** host=***.***.***.***"
SDE:***.***.***.***,5157,,sde_user,sde_password,n50.begrensningskurve

The problem is that the resulting table in PostGIS has a SRID value of 1,
but it should be 32633. I have tried to include the s_srs option to override
the source projection, which by the way is 32633, but that did not do any
difference.

I have used the UpdateGeometrySRID function to change the SRID after
loading, but that seems like a workaround that really not should be
necessary.

Is there something I've missed that causes this behavior? Any ideas?

Regards,
Pål Kristensen
