I am testing the OGCAPI of the Norwegian Mapping Authority (https://ogcapitest.kartverket.no/rest/services/havnedata/collections).

 

It provides five different coordinate reference systems.

 

 

 

The OGC API – Features Quick Facts suggests that the OGCAPI feature reader supports coordinate systems.

 

The reader seems to default to WGS84. How can I choose a diffrent CRS in the OGC-API reader?

 

The call would be like

"http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/5973&limit=2" alt="https://ogcapitest.kartverket.no/rest/services/havnedata/collections/fender/items?crs=http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/5973&limit=2" target="_blank">https://ogcapitest.kartverket.no/rest/services/havnedata/collections/fender/items?crs=http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/5973" ... but how can one provide the crs information in the reader?

 

Thank you.

Hey @hermann​ when you add the OGC API Feature Reader to FME Workbench, there is an parameter you can use to specify the Coordinate System. I've tested this with your URL above and can see that the data is being read in with the coordinate system that I've set (EPSG:25833).

Hope this helps!
