[FWTools] Using a non-standard projection in ogr2ogr

[Simon O'Keefe]

Hi,

I'm having difficulty in finding an example to follow to process a
dataset I've come across which has a custom projection.

I would like to convert a text file into a shape file. The text file
has two columns called AMG_X and AMG_Y. I know that the coordinates
supplied in these fields are not a standard projection (so I don't
have an EPSG number), but have the followng parameters:

    PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0],
    PARAMETER["central_meridian",145],
    PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9996],
    PARAMETER["false_easting",500000],
    PARAMETER["false_northing",10000000],

Can someone please point me to an example that will allow me to
specify individual parameters in an ogr2ogr command.

Thanks,

Simon
