Re: [udig-devel] Problem with recognizing geotiff tags - I think

Hey,

Jody's running ahead with solutions but I don't yet understand what your
issue is. You say the coordinates are NE which presumably means northing
and easting which sounds perfect for a UTM. Long/Lat would be wrong.
UDig is showing your CRS is WGS84 which is what your output also claims

What are you getting and what are you expecting?
