[GRASS-user] Create new location for importing OpenFileGDB directory

   This information might be useful to others, too.

   I just received an OpenFileGDB directory and want to create a location for
these data. ogrinfo does not report an EPSG code, only an ESRI FIPS code
(for US State Plane projections).

   A duckduckgo web search for 'fips to epsg' produced the following URL:
<http://ppoffice.cloudapp.net:8090/display/PP/State+Plane+Fips+Code+to+EPSG+Code+Table&gt;

   This told me that FIPS 3601 is EPSG 32126 which is what I need to create
the location.

Carpe weekend all,

   All three 7 versions (7.0.5svn, 7.2svn, and 7.3svn) do not have a subcode
6 for EPSG 3212 in the scrollable list. However, entering 32126 in the
second text entry box does find the correct entry.
