Hi list, Been struggling through fixing some QGIS proj 6 related issues today, and I've got to admit - I'm very confused about the role of towgs84 in the proj 6 world. My current crop of questions: 1. Is towgs84 effectively deprecated? Should I be avoiding it as much as possible? Is it inherently evil? 2. When I identify various WKT definitions using projinfo, I get a mix between direct matches and matches to "BoundCRS of ...". I'm unsure when this BoundCRS is important or not. Should I be treating a CRS identified as a BoundCRS of ... as identical to the identified CRS, and is it safe to just use the identified auth/code combo for that CRS? Or is that losing important information and I should NEVER treat a BoundCRS identified match as being an identified result in any circumstance? Thanks, Nyall _______________________________________________ PROJ mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/proj
