I'm a beginner in QGIS, and I have a PostGIS database and a CSV file I would like to visualize. I followed the instructions in this question and the answers, but it doesn't work for me, my two layers are still not overlapping.
Here is what I'm doing:
- I create a new project, and in the project properties, in CRS, I "enable 'on the fly' CRS transofrmation" and select "Google Mercator".
I add a PostGIS layer. In the "Properties" ("General") of this layer, the specified layer is "EPSG:900913 - Google Mercator". In "Metadata", I have:
+proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0 +y_0=0 +k=1.0 +units=m +nadgrids=@null +wktext +no_defs
Finally, I add a Delimited Text layer. This one is in Swiss Coordinates, so when adding it, Google Mercator is proposed, but I change it to "CH1903+". In "Metadata", I have:
+proj=somerc +lat_0=46.95240555555556 +lon_0=7.439583333333333 +k_0=1 +x_0=2600000 +y_0=1200000 +ellps=bessel +towgs84=674.374,15.056,405.346,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs
I'm choosing Google Mercator because when I first added the PostGIS layer, it was automatically selected.
What am I doing wrong here?
Here are examples of data from my sets: CSV (Swiss coordinates):
533288 152585
533230 152625
533066 152647
533057 152660
533110 152607
533143 152627
533162 152571
533103 152560
PostGIS (Google Mercator coordinates) (supposedly overlapping more or less):
