Hi everybody
I am ramarajua and new to this list
I want to use grass for my research project. As a part of the work I
require to use my projection base d on Everest 1956 definition
ellipsoid with geographical coordinates ie latitude and longitude (not
in meters as in UTM). So kindly let me know if it is possible to add
this projection to be added to grass or let me know if it is already
existing. I am using grass in the windows environment
Thanking you in advance

I have added to doc/projectionintro.html
(http://grass.itc.it/grass63/manuals/html63_user/projectionintro.html)

"
A GRASS location is referenced with a single projection and coordinate
system
(or unreferenced as XY location). When creating a new location from an
existing
raster or vector map using the tools available from the startup screen or
the map import commands, projection and coordinate system are defined.
To change the projection of maps, a new location has to be created and
the desired maps have to be reprojected into it from the source location
as explained below.
...

[r.proj and v.proj parts follow on that page]
"

Hope this clarifies it (please fix whatever needed in above file).
