It is same as */ /* Stereographic */ /* -------------------------------------------------------------------- */ if( pszProjection != NULL && EQUAL(pszProjection,""Equidistant_Cylindrical"") ) GetRoot()->applyRemapper( ""PARAMETER"", (char **)apszPolarStereographicMapping + 0, (char **)apszPolarStereographicMapping + 1, 2 ); }}} which appears to have been added as part of r15992 (the big merge of Xiuguang Zhou updates). Note that SetEquirectangular2() - the expended OGR Equirectangular definition includes standard_parallel_1 (essentially latitude of true scale) and latitude_of_origin as discussed in http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/proj_list/equirectangular.html. The problem may also exist in the 1.6-esri branch. ",defect,closed,normal,1.7.0,OGR_SRS,svn-trunk,normal,fixed,esri morph equidistant_cylindrical,esrirasterxiu gaopeng
