[postgis-users] Problem in migrating shapefile to postgis

[Lê Viết Thanh]

But there are some problems to this data, do not based on the information in
PRJ to say that SRID is 4326. This guy doesnt know any thing about
geographic/coordinate system (IMO). With my knowledge and location of this
data, the SRID must be 32648 or WGS 84 / UTM zone 48N.
