Hi all and Safe.

I just revisited some INSPIRE docs, that specifies the projections used for data here.

In Denmark we often use UTM 32N, but there are two basically identical EPSG-definitions: 25832 and 3044. We normally use the former, while INSPIRE only uses the latter.

The only difference is that 25832 is given as Easting,Northing, while 3044 is given as Northing,Easting.

I tried a simple reprojection workspace, entering a 25832 point, reprojecting it to 3044, and extracting its WKT. And it was still Easting,Northing !

Doesn’t FME handle such coordinate value swaps when reprojecting, or is my setup flawed ?

Cheers.

Hi ​@lifalin2016 ,

I have prepared a workbench as explained and reviewed the results in data inspector. Projection of same point resulted with different projection as required in workbench.

If it is not the requirement, could you kindly elaborate your question
