Hi FME fans, 

 

 

Can anyone tell me why FME thinks some coordinate systems are different when they should be the same? For exampe, I'm getting 4 different values for coordsys UTM84-40S - eg UTM84-40S_0, UTM84-40S_1, UTM84-40S_2, UTM84-40S_3.

 

 

Thanks, 

 

 

Owen

The FME coordinate system library only shows UTM84-40S, could be that the others are being read from .prj files and FME assumes that the name being the same doesn't neccesarily mean they are in fact the same.
FME rocks! \m/

Thanks. I suspected it was doing something like that, it would be useful to know what the differences are. I suppose I would have to examine the prj files closer, although they should be the same!
