[Geoserver-users] Mercator projection problem

[Grega B. <gre...@mo...>]

Huh. This string is from Esri ArcView prj file

PROJCS["Custom",GEOGCS["GCS_Sphere",DATUM["D_Sphere",SPHEROID["Sphere",63=
71000,0]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],PROJ=
ECTION["Mercator"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",0],PARAMETER["False_Northing=
",0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",0],PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1",0],U=
NIT["Meter",1]]=20

If i use this mercator projection in arcview my data is on right =
position. But if i create custom projection in geoserver in =
epsg.properties file like (copy string from prj file)

54004=3DPROJCS["Custom",GEOGCS["GCS_Sphere",DATUM["D_Sphere",SPHEROID["Sp=
here",6371000,0]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree",0.01745329251994329=
5]],PROJECTION["Mercator"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",0],PARAMETER["False_=
Northing",0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",0],PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel=
_1",0],UNIT["Meter",1]]=20

result differs from arcview. Any clue.

Thx Grega
