Description

ESRI rasters whose datum is NAD83 HARN (e.g. HPGN) are read as plain NAD83 by Gdal.

Using the following prj.adf file, which is State Plane Arizona Central, NAD 83 HARN:

Projection    STATEPLANE
Fipszone      202
Datum         HPGN
Spheroid      GRS80
Units         3.2808
Zunits        NO
Xshift        0.0
Yshift        0.0
Parameters   

When opening the file in using the Python GDAL bindings e.g.

gd = gdal.Open("c:/rastername/w001001.adf")
print gd.GetProjection()

Gdal reports the datum as "North_American_Datum_1983" and there is no mention of HARN.
