I have a coordinate system definition from a ESRI shape *.prj -file.

It seems to be EPSG:3411, even if there are small differences in the definition.

 

How can I create a costum coordinate system to use on both FME desktop and server?

The tool her https://demos-safe-software.fmecloud.com/fmedatastreaming/Coordsys/Start.fmw does not work.

 

I would appreciate any help with this:

Thanks.

 

Here are the definitions:

 

*.prj-file

PROJCS["NSIDC_Sea_Ice_Polar_Stereographic_North",GEOGCS["GCS_Unspecified datum based upon the Hughes 1980 ellipsoid",DATUM["D_Hughes_1980",SPHEROID["Hughes_1980",6378273,298.279411123064]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],PROJECTION["Stereographic_North_Pole"],PARAMETER["standard_parallel_1",70],PARAMETER["central_meridian",-45],PARAMETER["false_easting",0],PARAMETER["false_northing",0],UNIT["Meter",1]]

Hi @hermann​ ,

 

Apologies for the inconvenience. The define custom coordinate system tool was down on the 22nd unfortunately. We have since resolved the issue. Can you try using it again to see if it works for you now?
