[Geoserver-users] EPSG:32661 clarification

Hi,

It might be good if at least the developers would find information from the native data sources. In case of EPSG data I believe that it is then http://epsg-registry.org and for this projection

http://epsg-registry.org/export.htm?wkt=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::32661

What Google finds is usually epsg.io and I believe that it is well up-to-date but I still prefer to check the data from epsg-registry at least if it is important to get it right.

By the way, the EPSG database seems to also have the E,N oriented variant, it’s under a different code:

Hi

I’m using GeoServer 2.9 and I’m seeing that the output axes for EPSG:32661 is Northing-Easting. The bug https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-6354 documents that the axis is swapped and says that EPSG:32661 does not follow the standard. This bug report was closed under 2.5 but I’m still seeing that the layer in 2.9 is Northing-Easting and not Easting-Northing. Was EPSG:32661 actually fixed to follow the standard?

Your standard does not agree with the official EPSG database, which explicitly states that CRS is north/east oriented, calling it “WGS 84 / UPS North (N,E)”:

https://epsg.io/32661

The EPSG database is the standard for OGC services. If it’s wrong, you should raise a ticket against the database itself (it happens, it gets fixed)

I agree it's the authoritative one, but its UI is murder, so for a user
list I chose to use epsg.io instead, which is still based on a true EPSG
database but
is at least easily browsable/understandable. The UI is so bad that reading
the WKT you pointed at is actually easier than finding information in the
equivalent
web page, which I cannot even link to btw, so if people want to check for
themselves, they'll have to go to http://epsg-registry.org/ and search by
code for
32661.

epsg.io however fails to report properly the axis orders in the WKT, I was
actually tempted to see if I can make a pull request at
https://github.com/klokantech/epsg.io
to fix that (I'm a noob at python, so that's probably above my
abilities...). epsg-registry.org instead is closed source, so no much we
can do to make it better...

spatialreference.org is even easier to use than epsg.io btw, too bad it's
based on the postgis database, which has everything forced to east/north,
so not very useful, and besides, is
pretty outdated (last update 2013).

Andrea
