I'm having trouble projecting a simple WGS84 formatted layer over google maps. I can't find a good WKT "API" that not only shows parameters, but explains what each parameter is.
The coordinate system of the MapDefinition I am using is:
GEOGCS[
"GCS_WGS_1984",
DATUM[
"D_WGS_1984",
SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137.0,298.257223563]
],
PRIMEM[
"Greenwich",
0.0
],
UNIT[
"Degree",
0.0174532925199433
]
]
The PROJCS that I started writing but won't validate:
PROJCS[
"Popular Visualisation CRS / Mercator",
GEOGCS[
"GCS_WGS_1984",
DATUM[
"D_WGS_1984",
SPHEROID[
"WGS_1984",
6378137.0,
298.257223563
]
]
PRIMEM[
"Greenwich",
0.0
]
UNIT[
"Degree",
0.0174532925199433
]
],
PROJECTION["Mercator_1SP"],
PARAMETER["central_meridian",0],
PARAMETER["scale_factor",1],
PARAMETER["false_easting",0],
PARAMETER["false_northing",0],
AUTHORITY["EPSG","3785"],
AXIS["X",EAST],
AXIS["Y",NORTH]
]
For some reason mapguide won't validate this. What am I doing wrong?
