This page explains what is PROJ4 library and how to use it, both from command line and from a Fortran program.

PROJ4 is a Cartographic Projections library originally written by Gerald Evenden then of the USGS. This library has almost all projection types. Being written in C, a Fortran wrapper was developed as part of the GLIMMER project and can be found in libfproj4-1.0.tar.gz.

PROJ4

Installation

Windows

  • Download http://download.osgeo.org/proj/proj446_win32_bin.zip
  • Extract and copy "proj" folder to C:\
  • Right-click "My Computer" and select "Properties"
  • Select "Advanced" tab
  • Select "Environment Variables"
  • In the "System Variables" box select "Path" and click "Edit".
  • At the end of the line, add "C:\proj\bin" and click "OK".
  • In the "System Variables" box, click "New".
  • "Variable Name" is PROJ_LIB and "Variable Value" is "C:\proj\nad".
  • Click OK to close windows.

Now test it:

  • Windows/Run/cmd
  • cd .. until prompt is C:\>
  • write "proj -V" to see the version of the library.

libfproj4 (Fortran Wrapper)

Compilation

UNIX

  • extract libfproj4.tar.gz to some place (e.g. DIR)
  • cd $DIR
  • export export CC=icc
  • export CFLAGS=-Bstatic
  • export FC=ifort
  • export FCFLAGS=-Bstatic
  • ./configure --prefix=$DIR/libfproj4 --with-proj4=/usr/lib64 2>&1 | tee configure.mylog
  • make 2>&1 | tee make.log
  • make check 2>&1 | tee check.log
  • make install 2>&1 | tee install.log

Windows

  • Download \\kepler\Software\PROJ4\libfproj4.lib for Compaq Visual Studio, or
  • Compile W32 static lib:
    1. Extract proj4 source code and configure it (bash configure).
    2. New project W32 static lib
    3. Add fort-proj.c (from libfproj4-1.0.tar.gz) and all *.c files (from proj4 source), except all that have main function : css2css, geod, nad2bin, nad2nad, proj.c.
    4. Project Settings / C/C++ / General / Preprocessor definitions : VISUAL_CPLUSPLUS ou IFORT
    5. Project Settings / C/C++ / Preprocessor / include : whatever\proj-4.6.0\src (the folder that has projects.h, because of directives #include <projects.h>)

Usage

UNIX

  • pgf95 -g -o libfproj4_teste.exe libfproj4_teste.f90 /home/jjdd/Downloads/libfproj4-1.0/libfproj4.a -lproj -lm

Windows

  • Files needed: libfproj4.lib, proj4.inc, proj4.f90, test-proj.f90
  1. New Fortran console application
  2. add fortran files
  3. project settings:
    1. Link / Input / Obj/library modules : libfproj4.lib
    2. Link / Input / Additional include path : path to libfproj4.lib and proj4.inc)

Ellipsoids

  • List of ellipsoids in PROJ4: proj -le
  • More popular:
    • International 1909 (Hayford) intl a=6378388.0m b=6356912m rf=297.
    • New International 1967 new_intl a=6378157.5m b=6356772m
    • WGS 84 WGS84 a=6378137.0m b=6357002m rf=298.257223563
    • Normal Sphere (r=6370997) sphere a=6370997.0m b=6370997m

b = a*(1-f) = a*(1-1/rf)


Portuguese Coordinate Systems in PROJ4

You might want to get the libraries containing the coordinate transformations with portuguese datum pre-configured here. Install the libs in the proj_lib folder, inside the FWTools folder. By the way, you may want to install FWTools first.

Here's the command line on how to convert from military portuguese to wgs84:

> cs2cs +init=pt:dlxhgmil +to +init=pt:etrs89 < coords_input.txt

Portuguese Military Coordinates (Hayford-Gauss Military System)

  • Projection: Gauss-Kruger
  • Ellipsoid: Hayford (internacional 1924): a=6378.388Km, b=6356.912 Km
  • Datum : Lisbon (Castelo S.Jorge: 38º42’43.631’’N, 9º07’54.862’'W, 111.229m)
  • Central Point: 39º40’N, 8º07’54.862’’W
  • Origin: -200Km horizontally and -300 Km vertically
  • Usage:
    • +init=epsg:20790 <=> +proj=tmerc +lat_0=39.66666666666666 +lon_0=-8.131906111111112 +k=1.000000

+x_0=200000 +y_0=300000 +ellps=intl +pm=lisbon +units=m +no_defs no_defs <>

    • +init=esri:102164 <=> +proj=tmerc +lat_0=39.666666667 +lon_0=-8.131906111 +k=1.000000

+x_0=200000.000 +y_0=300000.000 +ellps=intl +units=m (no reference to Lisbon Datum!!)


Universal Transverse Mercator (zone 29N)

  • Usage:
    • ModuleHorizontalGrid: +init=esri:32629 <=> +proj=utm +zone=29 +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +units=m
