Identifying SRID from .PRJ file
945537May 3 2013 — edited May 15 2013Hi Team,
I have following in .prj file and i need to identify the SRID so that i can import the .shp files into oracle db via map builder.
PROJCS["UTM_Zone_43_Northern_Hemisphere",GEOGCS["GCS_Geographic Coordinate System",DATUM["D_WGS84",SPHEROID["WGS84",6378137,298.257223560493]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0],PARAMETER["central_meridian",75],PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9996],PARAMETER["false_easting",500000],PARAMETER["false_northing",0],UNIT["Meter",1]]
This site http://prj2epsg.org/search gives more than 1 SRID and i am confused which one to use. I tried EPSG/SRID 24372 and i am successful with the import but when i create a them and overlay on a Base Map, this layer is not appearing on the India Map or any where in the world map +(i suspect the X and Y coordinates are wrong, It has X as 1,294.537839 and Y as 1,252.647797 which in turn caused by wrong SRID)+.
Please advice the fix
Thanks
Nag
