I have these polygons in WKT string that represent an area in Florence (Italy), but I don't know what reference system coordinate is.

First polygon

POLYGON((11.262552738189697 43.77163613277955,11.257896423339844 43.774301152286796,11.25349760055542 43.775633617505264,11.249699592590332 43.77368139090623,11.247274875640867 43.77095436452717,11.245450973510742 43.767653876522246,11.247982978820799 43.76464763976463,11.252360343933105 43.76670863279483,11.253819465637207 43.76532947990529,11.254441738128662 43.76435320639226,11.257338523864746 43.76398128848206,11.25817537307739 43.76422923401245,11.26323938369751 43.771605143482134,11.262552738189697 43.77163613277955))

Also the second polygon is in Florence

It has another reference system and I have to convert it to the format of the first polygon area in Florence.

How can I do?

The first polygon is most probably WGS 84 = EPSG 4326.

You can see in the attached image the coordinates of the city. enter image description here

The 2nd polygons appears to be in Monte Mario / Italy zone 1, or EPSG 3003

  • @michele I've edited my Answer, it appears that your 2nd polygon is in a local Italian TM grid

  • Try "conversion between coordinate systems" or "how to project another coordinate system" in google. It is as useful as the stack exchange.
