Release 050204 is now available on:
http://members.verizon.net/~vze2hc4d/proj4/
About 10 new projections. Also added a list of modification dates
of individual modules (from ident) to the web page.
As an aside: I looked into adding a "configure" setup but was completely
overwhelmed by its complexity. After spending about 8 hours pouring
over
documentation that pales the most complex programming language I finally
gave up. Nice idea but far beyond the capabilities of this frumpy,
little old
programmer.
PS2: recent events caused me to check the performance of the "sterea"
projection on CA maritime province usage. PEI appears to work OK except
for a 1-2mm error on a few test points. Not sure of the pedigree of
the test
points so I do not know who or what to blame. This brings up another
point:
what precision is necessary for geodesic, cadastral and other projection
needs?
