Hi!
I found in the epsg file the transformation for Swiss coordinates. I
then tried to convert (47.38195,8.54879) (lat/long) to Swiss coordinates
using the following command line:
echo "47.38195 8.54879" | cs2cs -r -s +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84 +to
+proj=somerc +lat_0=46.95240555555556 +lon_0=7.439583333333333
+x_0=2600000 +y_0=1200000 +ellps=bessel
+towgs84=674.374,15.056,405.346,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs
Basically, everything after the "+to" is a cut and paste of the epsg
file. But instead of (600920,228685) it gives me "1248494.59
2683831.35 -47.46"
So, my question is, what am I doing wrong?
My second question is, is there any way to tell cs2cs that I want to
convert to/from CH1903 (or code <2056>) or do I simply have to cut and
paste the line given in the epsg file every time?
Thank you very much,
Mathias
