Results differ between web, api about ogre HOT 5 CLOSED

Thanks for the detailed report! I was able to fix a bug in the underlying ogr2ogr module which made the results inconsistent. However, in order to get the right translation in your case, you will also need to specify the sourceSrs param:

curl -v -X POST -F sourceSrs=EPSG:32630 -F targetSrs=EPSG:4326 -F upload=@ogre_issue_example.zip http://ogre.adc4gis.com/convert

from ogre.

Great, thanks for all your work!

Regarding sourceSrs: Is it enough to include a .prj file as part of the shapefile .zip? I'm using your service as a fallback for when GIS libraries aren't installed on the host computer. It's sort of error-prone to try to detect the coordinate system from the .prj file, so I'd rather pass the whole thing along if possible.

Just checked, and the results are now consistent, but it looks like ogre is ignoring the .prj file.

You are right, ogr2ogr should really be reading the projection file.. I'll take a peak

@bgschiller this change has been made, now ogr2ogr will look for the .prj file if no sourceSrs is provided

Thanks so much! Passes my test case -- I'll try a couple others tomorrow morning.
