Hi Chaitanya,

The SRS that I am using is a projection (EPSG:28992, to be precise), so I think geographic (unprojected) mode is not applicable. I will try to update ticket 481.

Regards,
Frans

Frans,

Add the option "-a_srs WGS84" to ogr2ogr command. It should force geographic mode.

If that doesn't solve your issue, please go through the discussion on this topic at ticket 481.

    Hello,

    I wonder if someone can help me with a nasty problem with using
    ogr2ogr to convert shapefile to Mapinfo tab format. Whatever I
    try, I can not get the output to have a correct definition of the
    SRS. Ogrinfo always reports the output having a NonEarth SRS.

    The input shapefile has a *.prj file. It seems to be ignored by
    ogr2ogr. Using the -a_srs option to specify the SRS, either as an
    EPSG code or as the name of a file containing the WKT of the
    projection also fails.

    I have tested this with several versions of ogr2ogr. I do not
    notice any difference between versions. The latest version of
    ogr2ogr that I could find is "GDAL 2.0dev, released 2011/12/29".

    A web search on this subject leads to several similar problem
    descriptions, but I have not been able to find a solution or even
    a workaround.

    Regards,
    Frans
